After all, shaping children to the well-rounded individuals they would become in a few years is not an easy task.

Dear Mr. Mueller,
I am writing to you to apply for an entry level position as a teacher with your 1st and 2nd grade. I am a recent graduate of Ateneo de Davao where I completed BA in communications, graduating with Honours.
Last summer I completed an internship on the Regional School. During this time I completed many duties including the course assessment, curriculum enhancement and grading students. It gave me an appreciation of what the job entailed and now I am anxious to obtain a full time position. I have good educational background and am proficient in humanities and social science courses. I am enthusiastic, organized, have a solid work ethic and am quick to build rapport with colleagues.
I would like to thank you in advance for taking the time to review my resume and I will be in contact with you on Friday to seek a meeting with you.
Yours sincerely,
John Santos

Mr. Hans Mueller,
Singapore National University,
2401 Taft Avenue
73820 Singapore, Singapore
Dear Mr. Mueller,
I am interested in applying for a teaching position, on the elementary level, in your school district. As a 200X graduate of XXX College, I have student teaching experience on the third and sixth grade level, in both suburban and urban school districts.
At the present time I am teaching "at risk" preschool children. This position enables me to provide these students with a "head start" in mastering basic skills. I am challenged to be creative, nurturing and most of all, patient.
In my junior year at XXX College, a passion for, and knowledge of horses created an opportunity for me work for the Racing Museum. This position allowed me to teach every fourth grade class in the local school system. I coordinated field trips with classroom instruction.
It is my goal to combine my range of experience with my ability to be a compassionate, enthusiastic, intelligent teacher who will make a positive contribution to your school district. I would welcome an interview and hope to hear from you at your earliest convenience.
Sincerely,
Signature
FirstName LastName
