Dear Hiring Manager,

As an ESL Tutor with 5 years of experience, I apply with enthusiasm for this opportunity.

I recently returned from Italy, where I taught English at the Medici International Language School in Florence for 6 years. I had the pleasure of working closely with individuals and groups from beginners through to near-native fluency. Prior to this, I was an ESL Teacher at Elite Academy in Venice, where I taught adults, teens, and children. I also tutored numerous private students.

As well as the planning and delivery of high-quality teaching in physical and virtual settings, I am experienced in administering and evaluating assessments in preparation for IELTS and TOEFL. I employ a range of traditional and progressive methodology. While I often use textbooks for beginners, I enjoy creating tailored material for all levels to address specific learning needs.

In addition to my professional ESL experience, I hold a Bachelor of Humanities and a Teaching of English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) qualification.

I am seeking a tutoring opportunity that will enable me to work directly with pre-vetted private students to support them with their individual learning needs.

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

Yours sincerely,

Sue Simmons
