The Gandhi Memorial International School (GMIS), was founded in 1950, and it is one of the oldest international schools in Jakarta, Indonesia. The GMIS modern campus located in Kemayoran (Central Jakarta) is home to nearly 2,000 students representing 50 nationalities, while the old campus is used for the Pre-School. The school offers their students qualified learning options from Nursery, IGCSE, O Level Science and Commerce, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma. The GMIS follows the Indian, British, and IB curriculum. The students of GMIS join top colleges and universities around the world including the Columbia College, Virginia Tech., Melbourne University, Purdue University, Curtin University, and many others.
The school uses the IB Primary Years Programme and the UK curriculum from Nursery to Year 8. High School students take up the Middle Years Programme while years 9 and 10 can select between the Science Stream or the Commerce Stream. At the end of year 10, the students will have a Matriculation Examination. As they move to year 11 and 12, they will also choose between Science Stream or Commerce Stream, and at the end of year 12, they will have a Higher Secondary Examination. Year 11 and 12 students are offered a very extensive two-year curriculum that provides students with balanced education leading to the IB Diploma.
The GMIS campus is filled with modern facilities including a library with photocopying units, computer laboratories with the latest computers, music rooms, seminar rooms, a state-of-the-art auditorium theatre, a large gymnasium, play-area, medical clinic, language rooms, science labs, audio/video rooms, bank, canteen and air conditioned classrooms equipped with a television.
It is with great pleasure that I am seeking to secure a school teaching position within your school. I believe that my instructional abilities, combines with my strong interpersonal skills and work ethic greatly benefit your educational program.
I believe that education is the key to success for young students. As a teacher, I hope to motivate students in ascertaining their inner strengths and abilities and discovering what truly inspires them. I aim to provide a stimulating learning environment that encourages students to trust their own opinions, while fostering confidence in order for students to realize their full potential.
Through my teaching experience, I have found the method of facilitating rather than dictating to be a highly beneficial style of teaching. I have learned that if students construct their learning experiences they will not only retain information longer, but they will also become more confident in their abilities. Being devoted to this assertion confirms that I have made the right career choice for myself. I love working with children and will continue to survive to be a positive influence in their lives.
Please contact me at your convenience so that we may discuss in greater detail how my qualifications would best meet the needs of your educational program. I also attached here my updated resume to further emphasize my credentials. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Very truly yours,
MARIA RUDENISA A. MARTIN
