Hello,

Another career changer here.. Have been working in academia and education for all my life, so not confident about selling myself in cv/cover letter..

I worked in university as a researcher and lecturer, later switched to teaching maths in a college.

Not sure whether I should talk about my research in CL?

Anyway, here is my first version of a cover letter, any advice is welcome



To Whom It May Concern:



I am writing to apply for the job of



After working in education and academia for over 10 years, I have decided to change career and feel strongly there is more opportunity for professional growth in the actuarial field.

I sat my first actuarial exam in September 2014, since then I have become a student member of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries. Currently I am studying for my next exam sitting in April while working full time as a Maths teacher in a Sixth Form college.



I have strong analytical skills and learn new software quickly. During my work as a teacher I taught a variety of computer courses: MS Office, Maple, programming in Pascal, Visual Basic, Fortran, C++ and HTML. Often I had to teach myself a new software/programming language in a short time before passing my newly acquired knowledge to students.

As an educator I also have an experience of presenting mathematical concepts to an audience with diverse aptitudes.



I am attaching my CV for your reference. Thank you and I look forward to meeting you.



Regards,
