Dear Ms Jameson

Re: Secondary School Teacher, Darwin State High School

I wish to apply for the position of secondary school English teacher advertised recently on
seek.com.au.

I have a Bachelor of Education (secondary) from the University of Darwin and have spent the
last year in a temporary position teaching English and History at Carndale High School.

A positive and motivated teacher, I am committed to providing students with a dynamic and
interesting learning environment in which they can grow and develop. I am familiar with the
Northern Territory secondary school curriculum and I thrive on keeping on top of the latest
resources and developments within the teaching industry. I seek to encourage students to
enjoy extra-curricular activities and study groups, which I believe instils them with a self-
directed lifelong learning. While teaching at Carndale High School I played an essential role in
developing and conducting research study groups for senior students. I am also qualified as a
History teacher, which allows for flexibility across a range of subjects.

My knowledge, skills and experience make me the perfect person for this position. I would be
an asset to your school and would love the opportunity to assist in the development and
progression of your students’ learning.

Thank you for taking the time to consider my application. I look forward to hearing from you
and discussing my suitability for this role within your school.

Yours sincerely
