1 Market your Qualifications Through your Resumé There is no one correct way to write a resumé. Only you can decide how to market your qualifications most effectively. A reader may spend only seconds screening your resumé, so pertinent information must stand out. Effective resumés adhere to simple guidelines such as beginning with the most important material, starting sentences with vivid verbs, being consistent in your descriptions and eliminating all spelling and grammatical mistakes. The entire resumé must support your desire to become a teacher. While your resumé uniquely represents you, most resumés contain several consistent categories. Heading Your name, address, phone number (with area code), and address belong at the top. If you live on campus, include both current and permanent addresses. Objective Keep it concise. Identify the grades and certification areas you are willing to teach. You may want to include your interest in supervising extra curricular activities or your desire to make education a career. No need to elaborate in your objective by stating that you desire a challenging teaching position (all teaching assignments are challenging) or that you want to work in a school that cares about students (What school doesn t care?). You can address your motivation to become a teacher or what you hope to accomplish as a teacher in your cover letter and/or application. Education Most first-year teacher candidates will list education next because this degree is the basic qualification for teaching. (If you have relevant professional work experience, this experience should precede education.) Include all college experiences with the most recent first. List the name and location of the institution, your degree, and graduation date. If your GPA is 3.0 or above, include this fact. If you have unique educational experiences, such as study overseas, you may want to include this information here. Professional Preparation Include student teaching, practica and field experiences. State the schools, locations and dates. Include the facts of your teaching assignments: the number of students and/or classes, grade levels, subjects, etc. Then describe your experiences in specific terms. All student teachers write lesson plans; what specifically did you prepare and present? What lessons, unit plans and learning centers did you design? Were you involved in extra assignments or responsibilities? Use verbs that capture your skills and accomplishments.
2 Teaching Related Experience This need not be paid experience. Mention summer camp jobs, volunteering for Special Olympics, or tutoring. You may want to create a section titled, Teaching-Related Experiences. Keep your formatting consistent with your student teaching descriptions. Begin with your job title, employer, location and dates. Include the facts of your experience and specifically describe you skills and accomplishments. Unrelated experience may be valuable as well your experience may prove that you ve developed leadership, organization or communication skills. Be sure your descriptions are related to teaching. Remember that all experiences are not equal. Those most related to education deserve a more detailed description. Others may be included to show how you spent your time and/or earned money for college, but these may require just brief descriptions. Optional Categories Administrators look for teachers who will be competent and active in a variety of school responsibilities. You may want to include college or community activities (if you haven t done so under experience), which indicate that you will be active as a teacher, too. Active participation in school or professional organizations can show a commitment to the profession. An activity may deserve a description because you developed professional skills or accomplished a relevant objective. When you create your resumé, think about what school officials want to read, but also consider, What do I want to tell administrators about my education and experiences to prove that I will be an excellent teacher?

3 Resumé Checklist Resumé is one page Name is prominent and contact information is complete and up-to-date (including ) Objective is concise and addresses the needs of the potential employer (what you can contribute, rather than what you want from the employer) Education section lists all colleges that have granted or will grant degrees or certifications, with degree, major Education section includes GPA, study abroad, and related coursework if applicable Experiences are listed in reverse chronological order Verbs in active tense start each description Accomplishments are written to highlight skills, abilities, and competencies rather than duties. Descriptions give details about methods, actions, and results. Education buzz words are used in descriptions Resumé is error free Resumé is printed with a laser printer on cotton or linen resumé paper in white, ivory, or light gray Format and overall appearance of resumé is attractive and well-organized Resumé is easy to read and the most important points stand out
4 Job Interviews for Teacher Candidates You'll need to do some research! The School District What does their public relations literature say about the district/school? What is the funding base of the district/school? Who makes the decisions in the district/school? How large are the classes? What are the facilities like? What is the curriculum? Who is on the school board? To what extent are the parents involved in the school? What are the geographic boundaries of the district? How many students are enrolled? What grade levels are served? How many teachers are employed? Study the statistics of pupil achievement in reading and math. Are most of the district's students below grade level? At grade level? Above grade level? Research your possible work environment. Ask if the district's teachers are represented by a union. If they are then get a copy of the union contract and study the contractual agreements between the teachers' union and the school district. Obtain a salary schedule for the district. Does the district have a residency requirement? Learn whether the district has received any special honors or recognition by state or federal agencies for academic excellence. What sports are offered in the district? Read as much school district literature as you can to help answer some of the above questions and write down a list of questions you have regarding the district. Save the list. Know the basic demographics of the district. Even if you do not have pre-interview access to specific district information, brainstorm a list of questions you need to ask.
5 The Community What is the community like? Who are the community leaders? What does the community think of the school district? What kind of financial and volunteer support does the community give to the schools? If possible, read current and back issues of the local newspaper. The articles will inform you about the activities and issues in the school district and the philosophy of school board members as well as the various kinds of support and opposition you can expect from the community. The Type of Interview the District Prefers It appropriate and smart to ask the school district secretary what type of interview the district uses and who will be doing the interview. Research Yourself Why did you choose teaching? What are the special qualities you will bring to the classroom? What are your accomplishments, your strengths, your goals for the future and your philosophy of education? Remember you are checking out the school district as much as they are checking you out. Keep an open mind. Look for the right match. This district may seem like the right match, but sometimes the perfect job is the second or third choice. You don't want to get into a situation that isn't a good fit. Tips Know your accomplishments. Interviewers are interested to know about your volunteer or extracurricular activities. Be on time. Do a trial run to see how long it actually takes you to get to the school. If you aren't able to do a trial run, make sure to give yourself extra time to find the school, find a parking place, find the office...and be 15 minutes early. Allow for the unexpected. Dress professionally. Teachers attire can be more relaxed in the classroom once you have the job. For interview purposes, suits and conservative clothing are appropriate. Maintain eye contact with the interviewer. Listen carefully to the questions and repeat them if necessary to ensure you are answering what the interviewer is asking. Don't be intimidated by silence. If you've answered a question fully and there is silence, pause and wait...don't panic. Many people feel that they need to talk more and may end up rambling on unnecessary information. Shake hands...if they don't offer theirs, offer yours at the beginning and the end! Clarify your next step with the interviewer. Send a thank you note promptly.
