Teacher resume templates

A teacher resume shows your certification, the grades and subjects you teach, and what changed for your students. It also suits assistants, tutors and counselors.

Include certification and endorsements, grades and subjects taught, classroom experience with student results, education and student teaching, clubs, coaching or committees, and classroom technology you use. Give one result per role that a principal can picture, such as reading levels raised or attendance improved, with the size of the class.

Put student teaching first as experience, with the school, grade and what you taught. Add tutoring, coaching and summer camp work, which all show you can manage a group of young people.

No. Keep the resume to facts and results, and save your philosophy for the cover letter or interview, where you have room to explain it.

Recast lessons as training sessions and classes as audiences, then add any instructional design or e-learning work. Keep one line about your teaching years so the change reads as a step, not a gap.

Use the same layout, with the focus on the support you gave: small groups, one-to-one help, behavior plans and the teachers you worked with.
