Springfield, IL, 62701
Dear Ms. Lawson,
I am excited to put forward my application for the High School English Teacher position at Springfield High School, as advertised. With a Bachelor’s degree in Secondary Education, a specialization in English Language and Literature from Illinois State University, and over five years of experience teaching high school students, I am confident in my ability to contribute effectively to your academic team and support the growth of your students.
During my time at Lincoln High School, I taught English to students in grades 9–12, utilizing interactive learning techniques and customized lesson plans to address diverse needs. A significant accomplishment was creating a project-based learning module on Shakespearean literature, which enhanced student engagement and increased literature exam pass rates by 20% over two years. I also organized the school’s annual creative writing competition, motivating students to express their unique voices and drawing over 50 submissions last year.
I am especially drawn to Springfield High School because of its commitment to fostering a supportive, student-centered learning environment that values both academic achievement and personal growth. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my skills in curriculum development and classroom management to help maintain the high standards of academic excellence at your school.
Thank you for considering my application. I am eager to discuss how my background and skills align with the goals of Springfield High School.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
