As a teacher, you’re almost expected to have a fantastic CV. It needs to be nicely laid out, organised, easy to read and there certainly can’t be any mistakes. That said, we’ve now reached the stage where basic text on a plain white background isn’t enough. As a teacher, try to use your imagination to design (or have a designer create you) a CV that looks spectacular. Make it connect the type of teaching you do, have a professional head shot taken, use stars or percentage bars to demonstrate your skills. Teaching is such a competitive industry that it’s important to make an impression any way you can. By sprucing up your CV you’ll significantly improve your chances of getting that teaching job that you crave, you just need to take the time to plan it out first. Don’t rush it; let it evolve.
