The most important point that your resume needs to express when you are applying for a teaching position is showing your ability to teach. First ask yourself, do you have the necessary experience? Many schools and colleges have strict educational or experience requirements for their teaching staff. If you, like many teachers got your start as a substitute or student teacher then you must make sure that you can note all the important attributes of your subjects, lesson plans, and length of time teaching. This information can really mean the difference between a good teaching resume and a great teaching resume.

Like any applicant you should be sure to not over inflate your teaching abilities but highlight your strong points, teaching experience and specific skills. New teachers should clearly express in their cover letter why they have chosen education as a career. Your resume is your first contact with any principal, college dean or school board, so this helps them to understand your goals and ambitions that you have defined in your resume.
