Ivy Jane Estrella
Professional TeacherRespected Sir/Ma’am,
As an admirer of your school, I was really excited to see your post about hiring primary/secondary teacher. Here’s why I’m an excellent match for the position.
My 6 years of experience in teaching molded me to be an enthusiastic and flexible teacher. I worked as a Grade 1 Teacher, teaching all the required subjects for grade 1 students; Grade 10 and Grade 7 Teacher, teaching English subject; and Grade 11 Teacher, teaching Oral Communication subject and Reading and Writing Skills subject at United Christian Academy.
More so, I was responsible for 30 to 40 students in an inclusion classroom, which has allowed me to refine my skills handling extreme behavioral issues, while maintaining a focused class. I also prepared the students for the challenging and differentiated activities and foster their leadership and problem-solving skills by having them collaborate in groups and work individually.
Additionally, my attached resume includes all of the other requirements given on your job listing. For this reason, I believe I would be a great addition to your school. It would be my privilege if I will be selected.
I hope to hear well from you. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Yours Sincerely,
Ivy Jane R. Estrella
