As a progressive professional with secondary education experience, I believe that I can bring valuable contributions to the team. As a Theatre, Film, and Drama Instructor with nine years of experience, I am confident that my background and skills align perfectly with the Theatre and Film Studies Teacher positions. Throughout my career, I have been acknowledged for creating and implementing a Performing Arts program that has benefited the development of students as performers, learners, and lifelong enthusiasts of the arts. I have further developed the Film Studies program in my career teaching DP1 and DP2 Film. In addition, I founded a mentorship-based Performing Arts Production Team at my previous school. The team was composed of students in Grades 9-12 who under my guidance mentored, trained, and helped develop one another in various performing, technical, and production roles. I have taught grades 6-12 in the areas of Drama, Theatre, and Film Studies. As an IB educator, I have grown and developed through various workshops and training throughout the years which has improved my instructional techniques. Please consider the following highlights of my career:

• Productions Coordinator: Led a team of students to create and support Theatre and Film productions on campus
• Creative Director, Theatre Troupe: Led the Spring Musical productions for nearly eight years with Broadway Styled Productions
• Secondary School Talent Show Coordinator
• Film Festival: Helped found an ongoing film festival dedicated to showcasing students' multi-media talent

In my Theatre Arts and Film Studies Teacher role, my successes have stemmed from essential skills, including group and individual instruction and lesson planning. I have enhanced my collaboration abilities and cultivated a reputation as a major contributor through leadership and team-building. I am a collaborative team player who always seeks opportunities to impart valuable insights. With these qualities, I can facilitate positive change and impact outcomes. I would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you further to discuss my qualifications and your requirements in detail. Thank you so much for your consideration and I look forward to speaking with you. I am eager to speak with you and greatly appreciate your consideration.

Sincerely,
