Dear Mr. Career

I would like to express great interest in becoming a member of Quality School Corporation as an elementary teacher. I am particularly impressed with your school system’s innovative approach to education as displayed in your AKids Come First@ program. I am confident that my teaching experience, combined with my education at Saint Mary’s College will verify my qualifications.

Through my student teaching experience, I had the chance to use cooperative learning techniques, develop effective classroom management strategies, and work as a member of a grade level team.

I have been told that my strengths include enthusiasm and creativity as demonstrated in the games that I designed for a thematic unit of instruction on mammals. Additional highlights of my background include, experience in using both Whole Language and Phonics teaching methods. Using anticipatory sets to introduce new subjects. And also training in how to develop a brain compatible classroom.

You will find that I am an energetic educator who is committed to excellence. Please find enclosed, a completed application and resume. During April 5-11, I will be in Atlanta and would like to meet with you to learn more about Quality School Corporation and to discuss your schedule for hiring new educators. I will call the week of March 15 to inquire about the possibility of arranging a mutually convenient time. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Your Name
