To Whom It May Concern,
While living in Chicago among the most diverse population in the United States, I discovered my life's passion, teaching. Now, after twenty plus years of working with and investing in ELLs, I am realizing my dream of teaching full-time. Excitement and elation are not even close to what I experience when I take part in guiding students into an ever changing world of language, whether it be English or foreign. Nor can I imagine or fathom doing anything other than educating students in the development and love of English grammar and its usage.
It is for these reasons coupled with life experience, volunteer service, and college training which makes me an ideal candidate for any teaching position. Yet, I understand being the best person for the job requires more than mere desire, but demands the blending of similar values, common goals, and hard work. Sharing this with others of like-mindedness will enable me to fulfill my passion for both teaching and seeing scholars succeed.
Sincerely,
Catherine Claire
