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.
