Dear Hiring Manager,

As an Adjunct Chemistry Lecturer and Doctorate of Nuclear Chemistry graduate, I apply with enthusiasm for this opportunity.

I am currently a part-time Adjunct Lecturer at the University of Sunnybank, where I teach undergraduate Solid State Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology. I employ a range of traditional and progressive methodology in the planning and delivery of instruction in physical and virtual settings, with an emphasis on field and experiential learning opportunities whenever possible. 

I see myself as an educator, not just an instructor. I promote a flexible, supportive, and dynamic learning environment and encourage students to challenge the material and ask how we can use our knowledge to question the choices we make. I am particularly pleased at the average 97% pass rate my students achieve.

In addition to my lecturing experience and doctorate, I hold a Master of Chemistry. I regularly build upon my theoretical and practical knowledge through field work and by attending workshops, conferences, and courses.

I have enjoyed my time at the University of Sunnybank, and am grateful for the excellent teaching opportunities offered. I now seek a full-time Assistant Professor role that will enable me to deliver stimulating courses to the next generation of chemistry specialists.

Please find attached my curriculum vitae for your consideration. Thank you very much for your time. I look forward to hearing from you regarding next steps. 

Yours sincerely,

Emma Smith
