Resumes for Teaching and Education Careers

Keywords and keyword phrases are a critical component of every successful job seeker's resume. By using just one or two words, you're able to communicate a wealth of information about your skills, qualifications, and experience. What's more, keywords are the basis for resume-scanning technology and are therefore critical to any job seeker's campaign in today's electronic-based job search market. For more information on keywords, refer back to pages __ to __ in Chapter 1.

Following are the top 20 teaching and education keywords, some of which may reflect your skills and some of which may not be appropriate for you at this time. Use these words as the foundation for developing your own list of keywords on the Professional Keyword List form in Appendix B.
