More Resume Tips from the OneTeacher Team

1. Eliminate articles (an, a, the) where possible, and use phrases rather than complete sentences

  • Example: Organized 4th grade field trip for entire 4th grade
  • Non-example: I organized the field trip for all 4th graders

2.  Eliminate weak verbs and replace them with more powerful words

  • Example:  Collaborated with parents to ensure student success on Science in Motion project.
  • Non-example: Met with parents to ensure student success

3.  Keep it to one page only

  • If you’re a career-changer, have loads of education/published work, then two may be necessary, but really try to stick to one.

4.  Consistency is key–don’t intermix noun and verb phrases throughout your resume

  • Example 1: Managed gifted strand student portfolio projects
  • Example 2: Designed drug free week with 90% student participation
  • Non-example 1:  Full oversight of gifted strand students’ portfolio projects
  • Non-example 2:  Designed drug free week with 90% student participation

5. Grammar and spelling matter more than you might think

  • Avoid using contractions
  • Read your resume aloud and/or ask someone else to read it to catch spelling or grammar errors

6.  Check your formatting

  • Make sure the margins, fonts, and headings are consistent throughout your resume
  • Check the appearance of your resume on job platforms (Indeed, LinkedIn, etc.) because sometimes the platforms garble what you upload
  • PDF your resume to avoid accidental formatting changes

Testimonials

The school is absolutely amazing! I love the administration, teachers, and students! I am so excited to learn more about teaching and to start my career in education. Thank you so much for making this possible. This would not have become a reality without OneTeacher!

– 2018-2019 Candidate

I was worried about using a service to find work. But 10 seconds into the conversation I was given a great interview for a job that I love. Plus when I was worried about the interview they helped me prepare and even got my employer to confirm employment within a few days. It was a great stress off my mind and I am very happy with the results.
