Hi Carlene!
Very nice, organized and informative resume. What studio do you teach at? I can’t remember if you told me in another post or not. I teach at a studio in Cheshire and North haven! What’s your favorite age and genre of dance to teach?
My one advice when posting a resume is have your education listed at the top and not the bottom. Even though its the last thing people care about sometimes, because they care more about your experience….I have been told that the resume reads better if your education is at the top.
Probably just differs with ever employer!

Hi Carlene! I thought that your résume illustrated good organization and I like how you weren’t too wordy with the descriptions of your job responsibilities. A few things to think about. I like that you included your skills, but I wonder if a short summary or even your experience would be better suited to be at the top of the page. I think that it makes a better statement. Also, under the Co-Director job, you use “Managing” three times. It became a little monotonous. Perhaps a variety of verbs will help that read better. Overall nicely done!
