Lightbulb Resume writing tips

Good suggestions Hypiereon! When applying for a teaching job, often you may not even need a resume. You can list in your email your qualifications, age (if it goes in your favour), availability, and what you have been up to during the last 12 months.

They most probably will reply as they see your email as straight to the point and easy to digest. Once they reply to you, then they are more willing to reply after you have sent them your full resume, as a relationship already exists.

If you are unsuccessful, then you can ask for their reasons so you know what NOT to do or write for the next job application.

Tips for Applying an ESL Job
  • Keep your email brief.
  • Avoid long sentences and paragraphs.
  • Bullet points are great.
Now take a look at this post! Isn't it easy to read compared to some other posts?
