I enthusiastically apply for this position as an English professor with six years of experience in settings such as universities, colleges, and language schools.
I currently teach English as a foreign language. I have been teaching, evaluating, and grading online due to the global pandemic (either asynchronously with assignments posted and lectures recorded or synchronously in real-time Zoom meetings), or in person whenever circumstances allow this, due to the pandemic.
I have extensive consulting and publication experience in addition to my teaching background. I also have a Master of Education with a major in English Language Education and a Bachelor of English Literature. I am dedicated to continuing my professional development, as my curriculum vitae demonstrates.
I feel incredibly fulfilled in my current position, which is very stimulating, and in this wonderful environment. Our family’s decision to move is the only factor in my decision to look for a new job. I therefore hope to find a chance just as incredible where I can contribute significantly to the English program. I thoroughly researched your institution and am confident that we are a good fit.
Please find attached my curriculum vitae for your consideration. I appreciate your time and eagerly await your response regarding my application.
