Every name, employer and institution in this sample is invented. In the builder it is laid out on one A4 page; replace each line with your own facts.
Why it is written this way
- Qualifications sit in the headline: schools screen on B.Ed. and eligibility tests first.
- Results are given as facts about the class, without boasting.
- Duties beyond teaching (class teacher, exhibition) show a full member of staff.
- The summary describes a way of teaching in one line, which gives the interview panel something to ask about.
- Languages are listed, as medium of instruction matters.
What to change for yourself
- State the board and the classes you have taught.
- If you are a fresher, replace jobs with teaching practice during B.Ed.: school, classes, number of lessons and what your supervisor noted.
- Add any eligibility test you have qualified, with year.
- For primary posts, bring out activities, handwriting, storytelling and classroom management.
What to avoid
- A long list of every seminar attended.
- Emotional lines about loving children; show it through what you do.
- Leaving out the subjects and classes.
Questions people ask
I am a fresher with only teaching practice. Is that enough?
Yes. Describe the internship school, classes taught, number of lessons and any teaching aids you made.
Should a teacher's resume include a photo?
Only if the school asks for one. Otherwise it is not needed.
