Teacher Cover LetterBefore looking
at a sample teacher cover
letter, here are a few tips on how to approach the job. Choose the
paper
carefully. While printing your resume and cover letter choose a
professional
looking font (not some fancy type or cartoon type). A font size of 12
points is
easy to read. The cover letter must briefly communicate why you are the
teacher
they must hire. Write your experience, your goals, interests etc in
brief,
presenting a story that interests the interviewer enough to call you
for an
interview. Think well and spend some time in choosing the tone and
content. It
must have energy and enthusiasm and a fair representation of your
abilities and
skills. A sample teacher
cover letter would read
something like the following. John Smith 786, Pine Drive, GA 13276 March 31, 2006
Dear Mr. Strauss, I am seeking
full
time employment as an English teacher in your school. I am convinced that my teaching
experience, coupled
with related activities outside the classroom provides a diverse
background
with much to offer to this post. I received my
Bachelor of Arts degree from New York State University, New York in May
2005.
Since then I
have student teaching
experience both suburban and urban school districts. During my two student
teaching placements, I have focused on teaching learning concepts to
children
in a manner that is easy to understand for children with all kinds of
learning
abilities. I have found that children respond to learning with a great
deal of
enthusiasm and freshness when they identify with the method and once
the love
of learning is inculcated, the infinite power of their mind comes into
play. I take great
pride
in being a teacher, and find fulfillment in this career and I would
surely
enjoy the opportunity to work at your school. I appreciate your
consideration
of my application. Respectfully, John Smith Teacher Cover Letter
