Dear Dr. Cronin:

Your school district’s reputation for excellence in education—described so vividly in the recent

New England Journal of Elementary Education—has prompted me to forward my resume for

consideration for fall teaching positions. In addition to strong professional qualifications, you will

find that I also have the intangible personal qualities that fit your culture and enable me to truly

make a difference to the children I teach.

Please consider my qualification:



Recent bachelor’s degree and Massachusetts teaching certification, grades 1-8.



Year-long teaching experience as an LD Tutor for elementary and high school students—

experience adapting classroom material for individual students, delivering individual and

group lessons, working collaboratively with classroom teachers, and promoting a positive

learning environment for my students.



Diverse field-teaching experiences (grades 1, 4, 6); successful experiences planning and

delivering integrated lessons that sparked students’ interest, creativity, and desire to learn.



Keen respect for each individual child and appreciation for the differences among us.



A highly effective classroom-management style that creates an environment in which all

children can learn.

I will call you within a few days to see when it might be convenient to meet. Thank you for your

consideration.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Tolles
