Sample Teachers
Resume
Generally, a chronological resume is the most common type of resume to
be used by job seekers and is a good choice for teachers, unless you
are applying for a position with a
college or university,
in which case it is best to opt for a curriculum vitae format resume.
While the functional resume is generally not used for a teachers
resume, there are some cases in which it might be appropriate to only
use a functional resume.
Teachers should not use a chronological resume in the following
situations:
- Frequently change jobs
- Frequent periods of unemployment
- Decided to change careers
The following
sample teachers resume is based on
the chronological resume and clearly demonstrates the above principles.

Like all resumes, the chronological resume includes contact information
and an objective; however unlike the functional resume the
chronological resume focuses more on
work experience and
education and less on skills.
The chronological teachers resume also gives the job seeker the
opportunity to highlight their educational accomplishments; such as
Deans’ List as well as any affiliations that might be
relevant to the position for which they are applying.
You are welcome to copy / use this sample teachers resume for your
personal use only.
