Proactive Special Ed Teacher Cover Letter Example

Dear Ms. Legaspi,

I am seeking a Special Ed Teacher position in your school and would like you to view my attached resume for consideration.

Teaching has always been a passion of mine and I find myself at my best when working with children and teens that have special needs. I have a great deal of patience and have come up with some techniques that makes the learning process more engaging for those that may not have the concentration or cognitive skills of most students. I feel that being creative in the classroom can be more effective for students. In fact, it is vital in the learning process and helps give these students the ability to be competitive in the educational system.

My educational background and experience would make me a perfect candidate for your school. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Education and have worked for many years as a substitute Special Ed Teacher. I am looking for a more secure position that would offer me a full time salary and set class and schedule which I am sure your school can offer.

I continue to grow as a teacher by taking as many workshops as I have time to attend and am constantly seeking new ways to teach through online communities. It is my opinion that even teachers can never stop learning and seeking new ways to get students, particularly special needs students, interested in learning.

If you feel I would be a good fit for your school, you can contact me at any time at (555)-555-5555 and I would be happy to meet with you at your convenience.

Respectfully,

Your Signature

Joseph Haley
