I think that this is a great resource because it provides you with good guidelines when writing your resume. I wouldn't have guessed to make my resume all one large page, folding it in half, instead of stapling the two together or putting them back to back. It tells you of some good things to focus on and what to put into your resume to make it stand out.

I think this is a great resource as well because it gives you a visual example of what your resume can look like. It has something you can model both your resume and your cover letter after. It also has a lot of other examples on their home webpage (http://resumes-for-teachers.com/teacher-resume-examples.htm) which is a great resource to be able to look at other examples and maybe incorporate a few points from each into your own resume. I think that looking at other resumes is a great way to learn how to write yours. It can be really hard to go from nothing to creating a full blown, great resume.
