How to Improve Your ESL Teaching Résumé

Cheyanne Marley

2014-07-18

Once you learn a few tricks of the trade, making a good ESL teaching résumé is easy. Keep these tips in mind and your résumé will be set for applications.

Keep it short. It may be tempting to show all the great things you’ve done over the years, but the truth is, nobody is going to want to sort through everything you’ve done in order to find what’s relevant. Save those résumé reviewers some time and narrow it down yourself! Try and keep your résumé to about 1-2 pages in length and include only those experiences that are applicable to ESL teaching.

Pay attention to format/style. You’ve put a lot of effort and thought into your résumé, so make that clear with its presentation. Use a professional-looking font, divide your content into categories with titles (Objective, Education, Relevant Experience, etc.), and keep your formatting consistent (font size, line spacing, use of bold/italics, etc.).
