Dear Mr. Doe,

I am interested in applying for an elementary-level teaching position in your school

district. As a 20XX graduate of XXX College, I have student teaching experience on the
third- fourth-, and sixth-grade level, in both suburban and urban school districts. I believe
my teaching experience and passion for community engagement make me an ideal
candidate for a teaching position at your school.

I have experience teaching elementary-level students in a variety of settings. I am

currently teaching third-grade children at an inner-city charter school. As a former
education coordinator at a local museum, I also have experience teaching fourth-grade
students in a small suburban school system. Your school emphasizes its unique position
as a school that caters to both inner-city and suburban students, so I think my varied
experiences would make me an asset to your program.

Your school also strives to engage students in the larger community. I have lots of
experience incorporating community service projects into my classrooms. For example,
as a student teacher, I led a unit for third-graders on plant life, and we volunteered at a
local community garden. I would love to find ways to integrate service learning into my
lesson plans.

It is my goal to combine my range of experience with my ability to be a compassionate,

enthusiastic, intelligent teacher who will make a positive contribution to your school
district and larger community. I would welcome an interview and hope to hear from you
at your earliest convenience.

Sincerely,
 Signature (hard copy letter)
