Meet the teachers of Helen Doron

Well Korea certainly has its way with the shady.  Here’s the Helen Doron website where I’m advertised as having 3 years teaching experience, a minor in education and a certification in education.  Oh haha. Silly silly Korea.

Justine  
Country   South Africa
University University of Cape Town
Major Occupational Therapy
Teaching Experience 3 years
Etc
   

Justine does have a degree in occupational therapy but she’s just one week shy of her FIRST year of teaching.
   
Andrea  
Country   U.S.A
University Fontbonne University
Major Elementary Education (Certified Teacher)
Teaching Experience 3 years
Etc
   

Andrea actually did teach back home so this could possibly be accurate.
   
Aimee  
Country   U.S.A
University The College of New Jersey (formerly Trenton State)
Major Communications with minors in Education (Certified Teacher)
Teaching Experience 3 years
Etc Education is invaluable. Childhood is priceless. Thus I take my lessons seriously but design them to be animated. I’m not afraid to have a little fun. After all, who doesn’t like to laugh?
   

Then there’s me… I’m just now coming up on 9 months in Korea aka nine months of teaching.

I did major in communications but my minor certainly wasn’t in education. Rather I did marketing

and French.  If I was a certified teacher I could get a teaching job back home… Though I am

Helen Doron certified.

Sue Tiffin  
Country   Canada
University Ryerson University
Major Journalism
Teaching Experience 4 Years/ Head Teacher at Boston 어학원
Etc Head Teacher, 분당 보스턴 어학원 (2006년 ~ 2007년) ESL Teacher, Kennedy College, Ontario TESL certificate Writer, ReporterAlthough it is always motivating to see a student’s progress in mathematics or language, it is most inspiring to teach students about good social habits and having good character. Watching children learn about life lessons and interacting with each other using kind manners and selfless hearts is as important to me as the education they’ll receive from a book.
   
   
Matt  
Country   Canada
University Acadia University
Major B.A. in History
Teaching Experience 5 Years
Etc My aim is to improve the student’s English levels at a consistent pace. If I notice that they have leveled off some, I try to change things up in order to get them moving forward again. I also try to ensure that they are having fun while learning.
   
   
Ana Maria  
Country   U.S.A
University Southwestern Oklahoma State University
Major B.A. in Fine Art, M.A. in Art Education
Teaching Experience 1 Year
Etc My favorite teachers growing up where the kind of teachers who both disciplined the class and made learning as painless as possible, looking back I now know that they where teaching me skills I would need in and outside of the classroom. They also really cared about us as students with their patience and efforts. As an educator, I believe that we are to direct our students to help build their minds, character and interactions with one another. I believe that an educator’s job is to share our experience and knowledge of skills with the students and to take the time to understand what learning methods work best with them.

I always research more effective and creative ways to help my students.

    Hi,

    I know this is an old post, but if you still follow it in any way, I would appreciate your help.

    Having had great problems with the previous korean Helen Doron representatives, we are relaunching in korea.
    Due to the past problems I have come personally from head office to ensure that things are done to our standards.
    I would like to have your personal input if possible regarding anything you might remember from your time in the old korean HD centre.

    Many thanks in advance

    Benaya

    Hi Aimee,
    Thanks for your quick answer and sorry about not responding, I thought I’d get some notification if you ever answered – and I only just had a second web search for past posts.
    I understood by some past blogs that Helen Doron teachers didn’t have the best conditions, in the current launch, teachers are going to be the most important asset of the company – and we hope to give them the best conditions we can.
    of course I would like any help I can get on the matter.
    is it possible for us to move to an Email correspondence?
    my email is benaya@helendorongroup.com

    Which country are you teaching in now?
