Dear Mr. Ryan:
Please accept this letter and the attached resume as a formal application for the position of a Childcare Teacher at Millbrook School.
I believe that all children are extremely important to the future of our country which is why I have always taken great steps to ensure that each child under my care is provided with the best in preliminary education. Because the formative years of every child can make or break their personalities and self-confidence, I ensure paying particular attention to all of them – no matter how time taking the process is.
Furthermore, I am very expert in curriculum development and lesson planning based on students’ individual needs. Over the years, I have gauged that children do not only need to be academically focused; the need for nurturing and providing them with a safe environment is as important. My focus has always been on ensuring that children learn through fun activities that ensure that their academic and social needs are fulfilled while they are at school. I have never had much problem with children’s behavior issues as I am well versed in the art of “distraction” when it comes to unruly behavior.
I am confident that you will find my resume and associated credentials interesting. I would like to discuss further the value that I could bring to your school. Please call me at (000) 201-2120 if you need any additional information regarding my suitability for this position.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely yours,
