BEFORE COVER LETTER

Mr. Daniel Calgary, School Principal
Maple Valley Elementary
1212 1st Avenue
Seattle, WA 98111

Dear Mr. Smith,

I would like to apply for a reading teaching position Grades 3-4 and found your advertisement on the Internet which indicates you will have openings this fall. Please consider me for these and any other elementary reading teacher positions that may be available.

I have just completed student teaching in fourth grade this week and next month will graduate from Northeastern University with certification elementary education (1-6) and as a Reading Specialist (1-6). I am committed to continuing my education and will begin a Master's in Reading degree next fall.

I am a dedicated teacher, enjoy hard work and helping students be successful. I believe this can be accomplished through the use of hands-on/minds-on activities, cooperative learning, an integrated curriculum, and, when possible, technology and the internet.

I look forward to an interview and can be reached at the phone or email address listed on my attached resume. Thank you for your time and consideration!

Sincerely,

Sheila Smith

READING TEACHER GRADES 3-4

Mr. Daniel Calgary, School Principal
Maple Valley Elementary
1212 1st Avenue
Seattle, WA 98111

Dear Mr. Smith,

Enclosed please find my resume for the Reading Teacher Grades 3-4 that you recently advertised: Briefly I have outlined my top qualifications below:

Reading Teacher Grades 3-4
As a Reading Teacher for Grade 4, I have taught reading, writing, and study skills curriculum to a class of 35, 4th grade students. Students in this program were selected due to either remedial reading or advanced reading skills ranging from 2nd to 8th grade level.

Reading Assessment & Mentoring to Drive Student Achievement
Managing this classroom and driving student achievement required weekly assessment of each student's current reading level. This position required weekly or bi-monthly consultation with both students and parents to provide effective in-home reading instruction. My teacher supervisor, has documented my ability to successfully raise student reading levels by 2 grades in many of the students I instructed. Please see the attached letter of recommendation from her about my abilities.

Teaching Diverse Reading Programs & Technologies
Teaching students with reading levels ranging from 2nd to 8th grade, I have taught a diverse range of reading programs including Success for All, DISTAR, ECRI, Open Court, CORI and LiPS Lindamond Phomenic Sequencing. Reading technologies included use of Accelerated Reader, Academy of Reading and Tomorrow's Promise Reading.

B.A. Degree with Elementary Teaching & Reading Specialist Certifications
My education includes a Bachelor of Arts with Elementary Teaching Certification and Reading Specialist Certification. Additionally, I will begin the Masters of Reading Program through Zenix University this fall.

The combination of my Grades 3-4 Reading Teacher experience combined with proven ability to assess student skill levels and use diverse reading programs to instruct reading levels from 2nd to 8th grades makes me well qualified for this position. Please feel free to contact me at the phone or email address on my resume. Thank you for your time and consideration. I am very excited about the opportunity to interview for this position.

Sincerely,

Sheila Smith

POWERFUL COVER LETTER WRITING!
You should now be convinced of how important using my booklet, Cover Letters That Increase Salaries, is to job search success. To write my cover letter book I gathered over 50 cover letters off of the Internet and at least 75% of them look like the before letter before with no design to direct or control the eye path with no paragraph headings that stood out. 95% of them DIDN'T DESCRIBE KEY SKILLS THAT MATCHED THE JOB BEING APPLIED FOR!!! As you can see a successfully written cover letter does. By learning how to analyze the job ads you want to apply for, selecting and combining skills from your ads I teach you how to create POWERFUL PARAGRAPH HEADINGS, using my sample sentences, and VERY EASY TO USE COVER LETTER WORKSHEETS! you can create cover letters as powerful as the AFTER cover letter above!
