How To Write A Teacher Cover Letter Example For This Year

Dear Mr. / Dear Mrs. [Hiring Manager’s name],

I would like to express interest in the role of elementary school teacher at [xyz] Elementary. I have had a passion for elementary education since college and undertook my first role at [abc] Elementary in New York City. Since leaving the city, I have been seeking a position in a diverse and challenging school where I can aid in the creation of an optimal learning environment for all students. I firmly feel that [xyz] Elementary is that place.

As a school teacher with 10 years of experience, I have a strong and varied skillset as well as robust work experience. I specialize in visual and collaborative teaching methods as I feel that passive student teaching does not provide the right results. During my current role, I have:

• Created a new curriculum for high needs students
• Developed a homework system that reduced failure to complete rates by 25%
• Increased the average reading and writing comprehension test scores in my class by 14%
• Created lesson plans to ensure learners gained a rounded comprehension (rather than short-term retention) of their subjects

I believe that I will fit in well with the culture of [xyz] Elementary and would love the chance to help your students reach their full potential. I look forward to speaking with you at your convenience.

Sincerely,

[Full Name]
