I am seeking a position that will allow me to utilize my teaching skills and interact with children and guide them on their educational journey. I feel that a position at your educational facility would allow me that opportunity to give back to the community and work with children.
I feel that education is essential to being successful. With a solid foundation and sharing my experiences while helping children embrace and learn about the world around them and learn things that they need to know can help facilitate children in the right direction to be a positive asset to society.
I would like to thank you for taking the time to review my résumé and possibly considering me for a position at your educational facility. I look forward to speaking with you in the future.
