Dear Mr. Boudreaux,

Thank you for your advertisement seeking a Psychology Teacher Assistant for the Psychology Department at California University of Pennsylvania. You will see in my resume and this cover letter that I have the qualifications you need to fill this position with success and enthusiasm, according to your advertisement.

I recently found out about your position at Carnegie Mellon University, and write today to alert you to my qualifications in this regard as a Psychology Teacher Assistant. I have a Master’s Degree in Psychology, and have a career goal of becoming a Psychology Professor at the college level. For this reason, I wish to gain invaluable experience and learning from assisting you in your classroom curriculum, teacher assistant meetings, and scheduling of related educational projects and events. During my time in college, I have worked as an Administrative Assistant for a well known Psychologist office for over four years; and thus, have the professionalism, knowledge of office protocol, and dependability to offer your yearlong commitment.

I have included my resume with this cover letter for your consideration. Please use the above contact information to contact me for a follow up interview. Thanks so much for your time and your attention today.

Yours Sincerely,
