A resume is an important communication tool from you to principals. It lets them know, in a brief written form, about your qualifications and why they should pursue you as a candidate. A resume should be more than just a listing of personal data and work experiences. It should be a sales brochure which markets you as a great teacher!
There is no one right way to write a resume. Each resume is as individual as the person who writes it. There are, however, generally accepted ways of getting information across to potential employers.

Use the following information as a guideline to draft your teacher’s resume.

* English
* Math
* History/Social Studies
* The Sciences
* Foreign Languages
* PE
* Elementary School-I
* Elementary School-II
