Principal
Angels Learning Academy
#1 Bakers Street, St. Michael
Bridgetown, Barbados
Dear Mr. Hide:
I am very interested in pursuing a teaching career. It is my ultimate career path. I found your advertisement in the Daily Nation Newspaper and thought it was the perfect opportunity to pursue my dream. I love children of any age and I love being able to help them to learn new things. I have experience working at both primary and secondary levels; I also have participated in many activities outside of the traditional classroom. I have much to offer. My first teaching experience was as a volunteer at Young Achievers summer camp, where I was in charge of all art related projects. In addition, I have worked with Ling Secondary School as a volunteer Religious Studies teacher.
I have experienced working with “special needs” children at Charles F Broomes Annex. I thoroughly enjoyed working with them. I especially enjoyed breaking down sometimes complicated tasks into simple examples they could understand.
You will find enclosed, a copy of my Curriculum Vitae. I am available for interview on Mondays, Wednesdays or Fridays between 10am to 2pm. If you have questions, please call me at (246) 429-8743. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Thank you for your consideration.
Respectfully yours,

I decided to explore these opportunities as they provided an opportunity to work with children as I have an interest in becoming a teacher. My identified work opportunities will enhance the flourishing of myself as it will teach me to be more patient, communicate better, develop leadership skills and provide me with the chance to learn how to deal with different types of people. Moreover, these work opportunities provides a chance for me to improve public speaking which I struggle with, allow me to create networking, and gain teaching abilities. The gap in these work experiences are that although it provides me with an opportunity to work with children however, it includes working in small groups rather than an entire class of 25-35 students. A method to fill this gap can be that to work as a teacher assistant so it gives a preview of what the environment of teaching several students with one person, the teacher is charge is like.…
