Subject: Application for position of Teacher Aide

Dear Mrs. Gibson,

I am seeking a position as a Teacher Aide that will offer me the challenges of a prep school environment along with the potential for growth. I have often heard great things about Liverpool High School and for this reason, I am enclosing a resume with this cover letter for consideration of your Teacher Aide position advertised recently.

When I came across your opportunity at Liverpool High School I knew I had found the right Teacher Aide position for my career, as I have admired your school services, curriculum, and environment for quite some time. I also have all of the experience and skills that you are seeking in a multi-tasking and enthusiastic Teacher Aide for your Science department-as I have a Master’s Degree in Science Education from Claremont McKenna College, and an internship from Lassen High School as a Teacher’s Assistant which lasted two years during college. I love teaching, can assist in any curriculum and activity planning needs and implementation, and have loads of patience.

For all of these reasons, I know I would make an exceptional choice for your Teacher Aide position at Liverpool High School. Thanks for taking the time to see this cover letter and resume.

Yours Sincerely,

(Signature hand written in blue pen ink)

Yvonne Carr
