Subject: Application for a Lecture,
Respected Principal,
I would like to apply for a teaching position or Administration in the School. I am an
Indian citizen, currently live with my husband, who is a doctor at Royal Bahrain Hospital.
I obtained my Doctor of Philosophy in Botany from Kanpur University (CSJMU)
Kanpur, India in 2011. Prior to this, I did post graduation in Botany (M.Sc. Botany) and
Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) in Biology from same above university, Kanpur and have
received valuable experience in India as well as at International School, Dammam in the
thirteen years. I am also qualified to teach general science and have done Bachelor of
Education (B.Ed.) from Rohtak University, Rohtak, India.
Through my experience and training, I gained the ability to apply various and
effective teaching strategies and techniques in the classroom to create a safe learning
environment in which students can actively learn and develop their self-esteem. These
techniques include Tribes Learning Community, Differentiation, Teaching-Learning
Critical Pathway, and Active Learning style. Furthermore, I have other relevant skills that
have been very effective in enhancing my role as a teacher such leadership, applying
technology in the classroom, and organizing extracurricular activities. These skills
enabled me to undertake further responsibilities both at work and in the community.
As an educator, my mission was extended beyond the school work to include
community volunteering. I have an outstanding record of volunteer work with leadership
roles in various community activities in Delhi, India. This volunteer work includes
teaching, organizing social events, and running educational camps.
I wish to be considered for a teaching position at your School. I would be delighted
to present a model lesson before the school committee to evaluate my skills in class. I
look forward to discussing the opportunities available in your university at your
convenience. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Hem Lata Singh
