Dear Mr Davies

Your recent job posting for an English teacher has captured my serious interest. I
am confident that my qualifications, skills and experience provide me with the
capabilities to fulfill the position and add significant value to the school.

Please accept my resume for your review and allow me to briefly highlight some
key points:

 skilled in employing a differentiated approach to provide a student-

centered learning environment that encourages resourcefulness and
critical thinking while promoting tolerance, respect and emotional security
for a diverse student group
 development of innovative instructional strategies, materials and
methodologies to address varied student needs
 optimal utilization of a range of diagnostic assessments to closely monitor
progress towards the achievement of curriculum goals and student
performance objectives
 track record of maximizing the educational achievement of each student
resulting in an overall x% increase in test scores
 in-depth and current subject matter knowledge including English Literature,
Language Arts and Composition for Grades 9 to 12
 establishment of a literature club, student blog and debating groups
resulting in a marked increase in positive student engagement
My commitment to ensuring each student is provided with the capabilities
necessary to become successful and contributing members of a dynamic
community is evident in my availability to students and parents beyond the
instructional day and my ongoing professional development activities relevant to
the student population.

I am very enthusiastic about this opportunity to work with Lexington Public

Schools as your commitment to providing a holistic education for each and every
student is well known. I would love to meet with you, at your earliest
convenience, to discuss this further.

Thank you for your time and consideration and I look forward to hearing from you

Sincerely
