In this course, you’ll discover the techniques I used to get a teacher job:

  • Two little known, unconventional job search techniques that will help you source teaching jobs way ahead of the competition – sometimes before the job is even advertised!
  • The one sentence to add to your Cover Letter that will help to land you an interview. This isn’t common practice but it definitely works!
  • The number one secret to landing a teacher interview. (Your interviewers will love you for doing this).
  • What never to put on a teacher cover letter. (This is so simple, but it happens all the time).
  • How to create a teacher resume that makes YOU stand out from the competition.
  • Resume mistakes that make recruiters furious. 
  • How to bridge those trouble spots, sell your skills—and yourself.
  • How to block stress—BEFORE the Interview.
  • Be prepared! Secret tools to bring to an interview.
  • Preparing for a job interview—mentally.
  • 25 practice questions that interviewers are sure to ask. (Each one comes with tips on how to answer each question AND detailed (and I mean detailed!) actual sample answers!)
  • How to teach a demonstration lesson or session that will really impress the panel! Get this right and they’ll want to hire you on the spot.
  • 12 questions YOU should ask the interviewer to let them know you’re serious about getting the job.
