Below is an actual resume of a Kindergarten, elementary school and junior high school teacher seeking a $52,000 annual salary. The main theme shared here is her creativeness through the use of conservative imagery, and dedication to education through her own commitment in life-long learning. This shares with her prospective school employers that she takes education seriously, is creative for the children, and has similar honorable hobbies for her extra curricular time. Notice her chosen resume format; she has more than enough achievements and simply lists them one by one, without the need to expand on them. The one thing she expands on is her interests, which show lets the employer get to know her as a person and a small picture of her and her dog shows them who they’re getting.

We have made some minor changes i.e. dates and names, to her resume for privacy concerns. Download this Resume Example as a Word Document.

Objective:

Professional Educator & Curriculum Master

Personal Statement

Helping people is my passion. Whether I am teaching children to learn and grow with each passing day or helping older adults to smile with my therapy dog, I am filled with an unexplainable joy to help and encourage others. I have attended many trainings in the 5 years that I have been an educator, all of which have helped me to continuously grow and better meet the needs of those in my classroom. The two leadership positions that I have had have really helped me to become more comfortable in front of my peers and share the information with them in a professional way. I relish in any chance to help others become more familiar with new material and to see other ways to share the information with their students in new and inventive ways.

Interests and Hobbies

When I am not working in education, I love to work with my Large Breed Dog, Bear. Bear is a trained therapy dog who goes to schools, retirement homes, convalescent homes, and children’s hospitals on a regular basis. He brings joy to everyone that he meets because he is so incredibly unique. I also founded and run one of the internet’s most popular destinations for large breed dogs and keep in touch with my online family every morning to encourage those in training, rescue work or just need advice, rally support for those that with ill circumstances, coordinate rescue efforts and transports, and write for a fun but informative Blog.
