How to use these profile samples
These are fill-in templates, not claims about a real teacher. Replace every bracket with your own evidence. Leave a field out when it does not apply.
Sample 1: exam preparation
Headline
[Exam] practice for [learner type] with clear weekly tasks
Description
I help [learner type] practise [exam and section]. We start by identifying the task that needs attention, then use a short model, guided practice and a review. My relevant evidence is [training, score, teaching or work evidence].
A typical lesson uses [material or activity]. I explain the reason for each correction and leave one small practice task. Tell me your test date and the section you want to practise so we can choose a useful first lesson.
Video outline
Say who you teach, name the exam task, show one activity and invite the learner to describe their goal. Use your real name and qualifications only.
Sample 2: business English
Headline
Practical English for [meetings, presentations or emails]
Description
I help [job role or learner type] prepare for [specific work task]. We work with a short real example, practise useful language and review what to use next time. My relevant evidence is [documented work, training or teaching experience].
Bring an email, agenda or presentation opening when you can. I will help you make the message clear, practise it aloud and choose one next step. I do not claim a promotion or business result for a lesson.
Video outline
Introduce the work task, demonstrate one correction and explain how a learner can bring material to class. Keep the promise within your control.
Sample 3: English for children
Headline
Short, active English lessons for [age or level]
Description
I teach [age or level] through [stories, phonics, reading or conversation]. Each lesson has one small goal, a visible example, guided practice and a review for the parent. My relevant evidence is [training, classroom work or teaching example].
I use [materials you actually have] and adjust the pace when attention changes. I share the lesson goal and practice idea clearly, without promising a particular score or booking pattern.
Video outline
Show one safe, simple activity and describe the language goal. Do not include a child's image or personal information without permission.
