Writing a Teacher Application Letter? Learn from These 6
Mistakes
resumes-for-teachers.com/blog/cover-letters/teacher-application-letter-mistakes/
Your teacher application letter, also know as a teacher cover letter, is the first thing a hiring administrator reviews. It
will prompt him or her to either move on to your teacher resume to learn more or immediately place your job
application in the discard pile.
Even if you are not a teacher, these application letter writing tips and strategies will help you immensely.
Your teacher application letter is your opportunity to make a good first impression, so you need to do it right!
Six Application Writing Letter Mistakes to Avoid to Secure a Teacher Job Interview
Mistake #1:
Writing a Generic Teacher Application Letter to Submit to Teaching Jobs
It is essential your cover letter for a teaching position is tailored to the position and school district where you are
submitting your application. The only time it is acceptable to present a generic letter is when you have come across
a job posting at the very last minute and are rushed to send off your job application documents. Very last moment
meaning just that – you only have one minute to submit. Otherwise, don’t send it as a generic letter.
Being proactive in your education job search will solve this problem. It is a good idea to keep an excellent generic
cover letter on hand, just in case – it is better to apply for the job, than not at all. In most cases, you will have plenty
of time to create a targeted application letter.
Have a generic application letter written to show your passion and is unique to what you have to offer a school
district ready to go. By having a solid letter available, it will be easier to fine-tune it to meet the school districts’
needs.
A tailored teacher application letter should be focused on the desired instructional open position. It will directly relate
to the job posting, incorporate relevant keywords, and targeted toward the needs of the school district.
Make sure you research the school district before you begin writing your letter. If it is a school or district that caters to
an inner-city population, you will want to use examples and descriptors that are relevant to teaching those students.
The same can be said for an ESL population, students with special needs, or a higher-functioning group.
For instance, say you are a middle school social studies teacher. Your application letter will change depending on
whether the school is public or private, urban or suburban, a long-term substitute or full-time position, or a grade 6
versus a grade 8 classroom. Do you get the picture?
Even though your skills, experiences, and knowledge remain the same, the aspects that you will highlight in your
application letter will change. Adapt your cover letter accordingly to ensure your application documents are given the
time and attention they deserve.
Mistake #2:
Not Incorporating Enough Action Words
1/4
2. Do not start each sentence with “I;” use action words and unique descriptors to grab the reader’s attention. As well,
highlight your accomplishments by explaining how your actions benefited the classroom and enhanced the learning
experience. For example:
Instead of: I designed fun lesson plans to interest students.
Use: Designing creative and exciting lesson plans to spark student interest is just one of my strengths.
Instead of: I used books and technology to differentiate instruction.
Use: In the classroom, I enjoy integrating age-appropriate literature and innovative technology to differentiate
instruction and facilitate all types of learners.
Instead of: I maintained a well-behaved classroom at all times.
Use: Cultivating a solid rapport with students and implementing positive reinforcement to maintain a focused and
well-behaved class at all times is one of my successes.
Instead of: I boosted student reading levels by one level.
Use: By incorporating read alouds, hands-on activities, and literature-based thematic units, I was able to raise
student reading levels by one level, while instilling a passion for reading.
Do you see how the “improved” sentences grab your attention and demonstrate how the writer is an experienced
and accomplished teacher? These examples show how you will want to highlight your teaching accomplishments,
teaching style, and value as an educator in your application letter.
Include action words in education resumes and cover letter to generate reader’s interest.
Mistake #3:
Forgetting to Include Your Teaching Accomplishments
No matter how long you have been teaching, you are bound to have several academic achievements to include in
your academic resume and cover letter. The last example listed above can be used as a teacher accomplishment.
Other themes you may want to focus on, or questions you should ask yourself, include:
Have I increased student participation levels?
Have I decreased student absenteeism?
How were students performing by the end of the school year, as opposed to the start of the school year?
How does my 4th-grade class stack up against the others in the school? What about in the district or state?
Have I won any awards that would be worth mentioning?
Have I pioneered any new teaching techniques or instructional programs that have proven to be successful?
When developing the teaching accomplishments for your cover letter, use as many facts and figures as possible to
concretely demonstrate your aptitude and skill sets. It is also great if you can highlight accomplishments that are
different than in your resume. When writing your cover letter, you do not want to rehash and copy your resume. So,
either re-word your accomplishments or use different accomplishments in your cover letter to avoid being redundant.
Also, make sure that the accomplishments you choose are relevant and important to the position you are targeted.
You can change up the accomplishments you highlight depending on the teaching position of interest.

Mistake #4:
Writing a Boring Application Letter for a Teaching Position
Your teaching cover letter is your chance to make your personality shine for potential schools. The worst thing you
can be in your teaching application letter is boring!
If you come across as humdrum or lackluster, you can bet whoever is reading your letter will think the same, and
your application will go in the “No” pile. Remember, this letter will be a school’s first impression of you. You want to
ensure it is a positive one!
It is also good to bear in mind that your resume is meant to be purely professional with a very rigid format and
structure. Your cover letter, on the other hand, is your chance to introduce yourself, your personality, your teaching
style, and your passion for teaching.
As mentioned in the second mistake to avoid, use action words and exciting descriptors when writing about yourself.
You want to communicate passion, enthusiasm, and drive in your cover letter! Show the reader you are excited to
be applying for this position, and you are committed to giving it your absolute all!
You need to be able to show that you are a successful and talented educator in an engaging way that makes the
person reading your cover letter want to learn more about you by continuing to your resume.
Review more teaching cover letter writing tips with examples to gather further in-depth information and ideas.
Mistake #5:
Addressing Your Letter to the Wrong Person
A sign of a good teacher is attention to detail. If you address your instructional cover letter to the wrong person, you
have already earned yourself strike one. Usually, at the bottom of the job advertisement, you will find contact details
for the person in charge of hiring.
Include the person’s name, his or her title, the school or district, and full address at the top of your application letter.
If you cannot find the name of a contact person, call the district’s head office to find out.
Not only is this professional and the polite thing to do, but it will also ensure that your application ends up in the right
person’s hands.
Mistake #6:
Not Proofreading
Submitting a letter which contains spelling or grammatical errors will make the interviewer think you didn’t care
enough to proofread your letter before sending. Even if you think you are good at writing and have few or no
mistakes, always have your letter proofread.
Someone else may see errors that you didn’t notice. Don’t use large or unusual words. Keep it plain, simple and to
the point. The easier they can read your letter, the better chance you have against the competition.
So, when writing your next teacher application letter, remember always appropriately to target your letter to the job
posting, incorporate action verbs and your teaching accomplishments, include your personality and passion for
teaching, properly address your letter to the hiring authority, and always, always, proofread!
