Resume Strategy & Review
Is This Session Right for You?
Turn your teaching experience into a resume that can open doors outside of the classroom.
Maximizing Your Session
To get the most out of your Resume Review, we recommend using the Teacher Career Transition Academy’s resume template and applying the foundational strategies taught in the Academy’s Resume Workshops. This ensures your draft is built on best practices—so your coach can focus on refining and elevating what’s already there.
Real reviews from actual satisfied customers
“The Academy has really opened my eyes about many things such as the different jobs out there, how important networking is, and so much more. I used to blindly apply to jobs and wonder why they never called back. Now I know, there’s a little more that goes into it than just submitting your current resume. Can’t wait to continue through the course, learn more, and gain the confidence and knowledge needed to make my transition! ”
“Lisa and the Teacher Career Transition Academy helped me to better understand what changes I would need to make on my résumé and cover letters so that I was more marketable. In education, one résumé and one basic cover letter pretty much does the trick but depending on what job you’re applying for your cover letter and or résumé could look totally different.
“Lisa Harding from the Teacher Career Transition Academy, is incredibly kind and smart, always going the extra mile to help the members. Her expertise shines as she provides real workforce statistics without sugarcoating, showing her genuine care for helping teachers find their dream jobs.”
Frequently Asked Questions
What should I have ready before my session?
Before booking your session, you’ll be prompted to:
Having these materials ready ensures your coach can give you tailored, strategic feedback that’s aligned with your career goals.
- Upload your current resume (make it as polished and complete as you can—this will help you get the most value from our review)
- Complete a short questionnaire about your career goals and experience
- Provide a target job description—ideally a link to an exact posting you’d like to apply for
Having these materials ready ensures your coach can give you tailored, strategic feedback that’s aligned with your career goals.
How complete should my resume be before booking?
For the most productive session, your resume should be as complete and polished as you can make it on your own. While it doesn’t need to be perfect, having all sections filled in allows your coach to focus on strategy, alignment, and fine-tuning rather than basic formatting or missing information. If your resume is still in very early draft form, you may want to work on it a bit more before booking so you can get the maximum value from your session.
I’m not a Teacher Career Transition Academy member. Can I still book a session?
Yes! All services are open to non-members. However, Academy members receive discounted pricing on all 1:1 coaching packages. The membership provides ongoing support, tools, and access to live coaching sessions—so you’re never navigating this transition alone. Many members use these 1:1 sessions to go deeper on a specific area while continuing to receive guidance and accountability through the Academy.
Will the coach write my resume for me?
No—your coach will not write your resume for you. This session is focused on reviewing your existing resume and giving you strategic, personalized feedback to improve it. You’ll leave with clear guidance on edits, bullet points, and formatting so you can make updates yourself—both now and in the future. Our goal is to help you strengthen your resume skills, not just hand you a finished document.
What if I need more help after my 1:1 resume session?
You’re not alone—career transitions take time, and we’re here for the long haul. If you need additional support after your session, you can book another 1:1, explore one of our coaching packages, or consider joining the Teacher Career Transition Academy for ongoing access to tools, trainings, and live coaching. We’ll help you figure out the next best step based on where you are in your journey.
