Hello, I was wondering if someone would be so kind as to help me.

Im wanting to revamp my CV from a technical one to a more industry specific TEFL one.

I was just wondering what the specific template headings would be and in what order.

Thank you, much appreciated.

Finy -

What I did was emphasize the training, teaching and instructing in my CV.

Industry-specific. Just list your education at the top, followed by a category labeled "teaching-related work experience", and then followed by another (shorter one) "other work experience".

You don't really need a template for that.

Where are you thinking of applying? I'd strongly suggest using bullets to describe your work experience, not paragraphs, here in Japan.

Also, try a Highlights and Achievements section. LIst the outstanding things, such as publications, workshops given, etc.

Templates for western jobs don't always agree with those for other countries. Ask about a specific country.
