Hi Tori!  I emailed you earlier but for some reason it did not go through.  I am an elementary school teacher with 12 years of experience.  I have my National Boards and great recommendation letters.  I just recently relocated from NC to IL.  I am finding it extremely difficult to obtain a teaching position here.  I talk with someone in the education field and they told me it was about who I knew not what I know.  Needless to say I know no one!  If you have time I would like you to look at my resume and give me feedback on how to make it better.  Any advice you can give is greatly appreciated.  Thank you!  Nicole
