To whom it may concern,
Dear Administrator,
I am writing to express my interest in a teaching position in your school district. I am confident my passion and abilities as a teacher would be well suited in a position in your district.
In December 2013 I completed my Bachelors of Science degree at Grand Valley State University in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I completed a double major in Comprehensive Science and Arts for Teaching and Special Education. I also have completed an endorsement in Cognitive Impairment and am working towards an endorsement in Early Childhood Education. While student teaching in a 6th grade self contained classroom, I worked with the teacher to create a positive behavior management system. Using this system we were able to increase the amount of positive behavior in a classroom where negative behavior was prevalent.
I have always had a passion for working with children, especially those with disabilities. My passion for teaching stems from having a cousin with a severe cognitive impairment. My hopes for her are that she will be blessed with teachers that see her potential and work to help her meet her highest potential. As a teacher I hope to be this person for my students and I will do all I can to ensure I help all of my students reach their highest potential.
Please consider this letter and my resume as an expression of my sincere interest in a teaching position in your district. I am confident that my skills and experiences as a teacher will enable me to create an accepting and student centered classroom. I believe in my abilities to be the kind of teacher I wish for my cousin. Thank you for your time and consideration.
