The purpose of a resume is to win an interview
with a prospective employer. A effective resume should convince
an employer that you are qualified for the position and
stimulates interest in meeting you and learning more about
your skills.
If you are in the teaching field, use our
free Teachers Resume Template to update your current resume
for free. When writing your own resume, look at the resume
template and take notice of how the resume is set up. Duplicate
this format with your own employment history and information.
We recommend that you use Microsoft Word for creating your
professional resume. A resume should be updated each time
you change information teaching jobs.
