‭To whom it may pertain to,‬

‭ lease accept this letter expressing my interest in the general music educator position. I‬
P
‭believe that I would be an excellent fit for this position, as I am a very dedicated and‬
‭well-trained musician, born with a passion to teach and inspire. I have always believed‬
‭that music is an unstoppable force of nature that everyone deserves the chance to love‬
‭and create. My hope is to, if given the opportunity, work with students in a fun, healthy,‬
‭productive, and beneficial way that will provide them with the most efficient set of tools‬
‭to allow them to express themselves through music. I will help students to understand‬
‭the fundamentals of musical interpretation and expression and make sure that they‬
‭achieve all the goals they aspire to achieve, while still maintaining a steady pace in‬
‭alignment with Virginia’s SOL and NAfME’s Standards for Music Education. There has‬
‭always been and always will be a time and place for music,and I believe in the idea that‬
‭school has a time and place for music, so I want to do everything that I can to provide a‬
‭safe space for music.‬

I‭, as a music educator, will be as supportive and helpful to all students as possible,‬
‭never letting them fall short of their dreams and aspirations. While being a music‬
‭educator in such a diverse society that can and will present itself with a plethora of‬
‭challenges, I will never stop striving to benefit the students before anything else. I will‬
‭work tirelessly to help any and every student that enters my class. Music education‬
‭goes beyond playing an instrument, as it taps into a special and very unique part of the‬
‭brain that connects to each of us differently. Music also connects to us spiritually and is‬
‭vital for a healthy, creative, and balanced lifestyle.‬

‭ lease take a moment to review my attached resume, certifications, and credentials. I‬

P
‭would greatly appreciate the opportunity to speak with you regarding my candidacy.‬

‭Thank you for your time and consideration.‬

‭ est,‬
