English Teacher´s Resume - Cliffton Close


COVER LETTER


The following resume will make evident that I am a professional teacher of English with a very respectable amount of teaching experience. I started teaching English privately in Berlin before moving to Freiburg where I started teaching for a company called Greenbaum and Pepper. After moving to Japan to meet my future wife´s relatives I taught there for a year in Kofu. I then taught English literature and writing at a private high school called the Arrowsmith Acadamy in Berkeley, California before the school in bankruptcy closed in 2001. Moving back to Freiburg to begin my graduate work I also resumed teaching English in private well as teaching for two companies one of them being the Cambridge Institute. With the sudden hospitalization of a relative I had to return to California. After the emergency was resolved I returned to Japan to teach another two years in Osaka and Kyoto as well as teaching at a preschool in Fukuchiyama.
I then had to return to Freiburg for reasons of my graduate work before finally returning to Japan to teach English and advance my study of Japanese.
If you are satisfied with the depth of experience on my resume my phone number is 090 61469797. Thank you.
