Virtual Assistant Remote

Dear Hiring Manager,
I am writing to express my interest in a position aligned with instructional design or educational technology at your organization. With a strong foundation in education and a growing focus on instructional design and technology, I am eager to apply my experience in scheduling, research, and writing to a role that allows me to build engaging and effective learning experience as a virtual assistant. I am currently pursuing additional coursework toward a second Master’s degree in Instructional Design and Technology, and I am excited to transition my career in this direction.
Throughout my career in education, I have developed strong organizational and communication skills, regularly coordinating meetings, managing complex schedules, and writing detailed reports. These experiences have sharpened my ability to synthesize information, meet deadlines, and communicate clearly—skills that are directly transferable to instructional design work. My passion for learning, problem-solving, and working with people drives me to continually seek innovative solutions to support learners of all backgrounds.
As I move away from my current role in the classroom, I am enthusiastic about the opportunity to apply my experience in a new and impactful way. I am confident that my background in education, paired with my growing knowledge of instructional design and dedication to ongoing learning, would make me a valuable asset to your team.
Thank you for considering my application. I would welcome the chance to discuss how my skills and experience align with your organization’s needs. Please feel free to contact me at your convenience.
Sincerely,
Shelley Gebhardt
