Jacob Johnson

Principal

Martin Luther King Elementary School

16 Hillbrook Lane

Chicago, IL 23423

June 20, 2015

Dear Mr. Johnson:

It recently came to my attention that Martin Luther King Elementary is looking for an early education instructor. Upon learning of this, I immediately completed the online application process. I am also writing to reiterate my sincere interest in this position and tell you a little more about myself.

Throughout my collegiate career I had the opportunity to do fieldwork in a number of remarkable schools in Chicago. At each I became a contributing member of the school community by volunteering my time and energy to provide enrichment for students. In addition to observing and conducting lessons, I organized a school-wide field trip, helped organize a nutrition program, and volunteered in an after-school music program. As a teacher, I want to go above and beyond the call of duty, to provide valuable learning experiences to students at the school where I work, and I believe that my dedication, energy, and enthusiasm would allow me to become a successful member of the MLK community.

I possess teacher certification in both math and early childhood education. As you are aware, this is an unusual combination of qualifications, and it is my goal to make math instruction enjoyable and accessible to young children. I am also well versed in MS Office and have experience using Smart Board in the classroom.

My resume is enclosed for your review. If you would like further information or a copy of my teaching portfolio, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to speaking with you.

Sincerely,

Bryan Abrahams
