History Teacher Cover Letter Sample

Dear Hiring Manager,

As a History Teacher with 7 years of high school experience, I apply with enthusiasm for this role.

I began my career as a History Teacher in Wisconsin before relocating to Germany for 2 years to work as a Modern History Teacher for an international school. After moving home and completing my Master of History Education, I joined Pentz High School in Ohio as Chemistry Teacher.

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 examinations. I employ a range of traditional and progressive methodology, incorporating experiential learning opportunities whenever possible. 

I see myself as an educator, not just a teacher. I encourage students to question their actions, the way that others have lived, and how we can use our knowledge to question the choices we make. I foster collaborations with leadership and fellow teachers that promote a flexible, supportive, and dynamic learning environment. I am delighted by the 93% average pass rate that my classes achieve. 

In addition to my experience and Master degree, I hold a Bachelor of Education and am a Google Certified Educator (Levels 1 and 2). 

I have enjoyed my time at Pentz. My decision to leave is solely based on our family’s decision to relocate. After researching your school’s reputation, academic track record, and reviews in detail, I feel confident about our mutual fit.

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

Yours sincerely,

Mary Wall
