Summary

Detail-oriented team player with strong organizational skills. Ability to handle multiple projects simultaneously with a high degree of accuracy. Background includes almost 2 decades of teaching experience in perfecting teaching skills, training other teachers, and single-handedly creating a new, proprietary, and dynamic curriculum. At this point, I hope to further develop another skill set of mine, which involves creative writing, literary non-fiction, marketing and copywriting, and short / long form journalism. My professional life is always inspired and benefited by my desire to keep learning each and every day.

Cover Letter

Thank you for taking the time to consider me for a position at your company. I hope to be given the chance to contribute in a meaningful way as a member of your staff while having the opportunity to learn, grow, and develop my skills in a new environment. It may be apparent from my resume that I could easily benefit any school that wished to hire me. However, I believe the skills that have helped me to become a successful teacher could set me up for success in other careers. It is a new chance that I hope to be offered, a new challenge that I am willing to accept, and a new opportunity for personal growth that I seek.
