In June 2000 I received my bachelor of science from Ain Shams University, construction engineering major. In September 2006, I received a certificate in teaching aids and techniques from the faculty of education; in June 2010 I finished my master’s diploma from the American Graduate School of Education. I also teach SAT math and physics preparation courses privately as a part time job in the afternoons and at weekends. Managing my time between work, study and playing football – my favorite sport – is a real challenge. Time management, organizational skills, responsibility, teamwork, and leadership are all characteristics that I am eager to use in the classroom as well as share with my students. I am currently the math supervisor/IB diploma mathematics (HL and SL) and an IB examiner/ teacher at both The International School of Elite Education and Cairo Modern International School, New Cairo, I am a determined, enthusiastic, and highly motivated person. I want students to grow academically, socially, and emotionally in an atmosphere that is stimulating and adaptive to their diverse needs. During my 20 years of teaching experience, I have focused on instilling in my students a love of learning, as well as teaching them to be responsible and involved citizens of a democratic society. As a result of my current position and my prior seventh-grade student teaching experience, as well as 5 years’ experience as high school principal in an American international school I have become flexible in my teaching, while perfecting high organizational and managerial standards and skills. These skills have aided me in providing a strong curriculum for my students. Because I am CITA certified and I have taught at both middle and high school levels, I feel confident that I am prepared to teach any class, at any grade level, and be a leader/manager at any organization. I believe it takes more than a single individual to make a difference in the lives of a class of students. Therefore, I have learned the value of being a team player and the importance of communicating with colleagues, parents, and administrators so that I will be able to provide the best education possible for my students. I take great pride in being a teacher and a coach, and feel my strengths and talents are well utilized in this stimulating career. I am seeking full time employment and I would enjoy the opportunity to work at your organization. I appreciate your consideration of my application. Respectfully, Mohamed elSchimi
