How Do I Put Student Teaching on my Resume?

Student Teaching on Resume

Student teaching is an important part of your work experience as an educator, so you should definitely list it on your resume. Of course, that might be easier said than done, so we've provided some tips and examples to help you!

Resume Student Teaching

 Student Teaching Resume Tips

  • List student teaching under the “Relevant Experience” section of your resume (or something similar, like, “Teaching Experience”), rather than under the “Education” section.
  • Make sure to include the school where you taught and the dates you taught.
  • You also want to include the grade or subject area you taught.
  • List a few bullet points describing your job responsibilities and accomplishments.
  • Make sure to keep the formatting the same throughout your resume (so, if you list the date in italics for your student teaching position, make sure it’s also in italics for the other positions you list elsewhere in your resume).
