RESUME FOR EDUCATION MAJORS
Current and Permanent Addresses and Phone Numbers: Proofread carefully! Including a permanent
address and phone number may be necessary if the employer tries to reach you after graduation or during
a school break.
Professional Objective: Give the subject area(s) or grade(s) you are interested in teaching. If you are
interested in working with particular extracurricular activities or coaching (and qualified), give that
information here.
Education: List the name(s) of college(s) attended, city(ies), and dates, beginning with your highest
degree. Include type degree pursued, major/minor, and anticipated graduation date. List GPA overall or in
major only if it is 3.0 or above (ex., 3.5/4.0). After your sophomore year, omit all references to high
school.
Honors and Awards: List scholarships, academic honors (including Dean’s List), and dates from
college.
Activities or Affiliations: List professional and academic organizations first; social, religious, and
political organizations may also be listed but are not required. Include any offices held and dates.
Work Experience: Start with your student teaching. Tell the school, location, grade(s), and subject
area(s) in which you worked. If you were involved in any special programs or projects, give that
information. If you have limited work experience, you may also want to include a summary of your
practicum experiences. For the remainder of your work experience, include paid jobs and volunteer or
clinical experiences, especially if they are career-related. Begin with your current or most recent job and
work backward in time. List relevant job titles, company names, city, state and dates of employment
(01/08 – 01/09 or Jan. 2008 – Jan. 2009). Summarize major duties using sentence fragments and
appropriate tense. You may use the language of the job to describe the job. You may also group special
work experiences, especially those relating to the job you are seeking. For any jobs involving children,
include the grade level or age range of the children.
Skills: If you have special skills, including but not limited to computer skills, list them here. Other
special skills might include foreign languages or American Sign Language, use of specific lab
instrumentation, or communication skills (if you are particularly strong in public speaking or writing).
References: State simply, “Available on Request.” At the time of the interview, you should have a
typewritten list of at least three professional references to provide to any employer who requests them.
The list should include titles, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses, separate from your resume.
Title the sheet “References for Brianna Brainiac” (substitute your own name, of course).
USE CAPITALIZATION AND BOLD FOR EMPHASIS. STAY AWAY FROM ITALICS,
UNDERLINING, BOXES, AND FANCY GRAPHICS AND TYPEFACES SINCE THEY DO NOT
SCAN WELL.
