RE: Mathematics Teacher

Dear Ma,

I am an experienced Mathematics Teacher seeking an opportunity at your School. I have a

strong track record and am looking forward to bringing my skills and abilities to the team.

In my Mathematics Teacher position with my previous employers, I handled tasks very

similar to what you outlined in your job ad. I had taught mathematics to both junior and
high school students for 6 years. This experience has inculcated a strong desire to facilitate
students in learning strong mathematical concepts that would help them in subsequent
stages of their careers. With my ability to learn, I know I can quickly close any knowledge
gaps to become an asset to your team.

My ability to create clear and concise learning objectives and the knowledge of using
innovative, appropriate, and differentiated instructional methods was the prime reason for
my promotions at my previous place of work. I know just how to make this subject
interesting by using contemporary resources and materials that will keep students’ interest
piqued at all times.

I have effective communication skills and the motivation to take on challenging work. I'm
also skilled at lesson planning, team collaboration and learning modalities. I am confident
that I have the drive, knowledge and experience you need.

In reference to the gap in employment shown on my resume, I capitalized on an opportunity

to travel in an effort to gain new experiences, foster personal development, and bring a
renewed perspective to my field of study. This period of travel allowed me to build strong
connections with other individuals and cultures, which has cultivated new growth and a
better understanding of my future goals.

Please take a look at my enclosed resume for more details about my work experience and
qualifications. I'd really like to speak with you more about the position, and I look forward to
hearing from you soon.

Yours Sincerely,

CHRISTOPHER OKEREAFOR
