Ms. Priya Nair, Program Director
Lakeside Summer Learning Academy

Dear Ms. Nair,
I am applying for the Summer Program Instructional Intern position at Lakeside Summer Learning Academy. The mix of literacy intervention, outdoor science blocks, and family newsletters matches the wraparound support I am training to deliver.
I am pursuing elementary licensure and have classroom observation hours plus small-group tutoring experience.
This spring I led a six-student reading circle focused on fluency and comprehension, moving the group's median oral reading score up one grade band in ten weeks. I also co-designed a "math in the park" scavenger hunt that teachers adopted for a school-wide field day.
I am comfortable with lesson pacing, behavior cues that preserve dignity, and quick pivots when a lab spills or a thunderstorm moves class indoors.
I communicate with families in warm, specific language—what we practiced, what improved, and what to try at home.
I collaborate with paraprofessionals and specialists because student wins are shared wins.
For section order, I used the checklist on coverletter-examples.com before my final proofread.
My resume includes observation logs and references. Please reach me at 608-555-0120 or avery.chen@email.com. Thank you for your time; I would be thrilled to support Lakeside's learners this summer.
Sincerely,
Avery Chen
