To Whom It May Concern,
I’m writing to apply for the K-3rd grade position. I am certain that my skills are well associated with the role of available positions. I believe
that I would be an excellent candidate to assist you, the faculty, and students to accomplish a great educational school year of successful
learning.
After graduating in 2011-2012, I worked as a substitute teacher for one school term. In 2012-2013 I worked as a teacher’s helper. In 2013-
2014 I worked as an ESE teacher for grades K-3. This position was opened for the first time at Lake Stevens Elementary. I was told that there
is no guarantee that the position will be available this coming school term; the number of students might not meet the requirements for the
service. So, I’m seeking employment! Although I’m applying as a fairly new teacher my passion for learning is the driving force that
encourages me be the best teacher that I could possibly be. My deepest desire is to encourage the passion for learning to my students. I would
like to help each of them to develop into life time learners, no matter the starting point. My educational philosophy is “Teaching is …
touching a life forever”.
So, I look forward to being a part of your team!
Sincerely yours,
Linda Vickers
