Create CVIf you’re writing a teacher resume, your tools and technology section must clearly show how you teach, manage classrooms, track progress, and deliver instruction using modern systems. Hiring managers are not looking for generic “tech-savvy” claims—they want specific platforms, tools, and classroom technologies that prove you can operate effectively in today’s schools.
This guide shows exactly what tools to include, how to present them, and how to match them to real hiring expectations so your resume stands out immediately.
Before listing tools, understand the real intent behind this section.
Schools want proof that you can:
Deliver instruction using modern teaching platforms
Manage classrooms efficiently using digital tools
Track student performance and adapt instruction
Communicate effectively with parents and staff
Operate within school systems without heavy onboarding
Key insight from recruiters:
A resume with vague tech skills is ignored. A resume with specific tools tied to real classroom outcomes gets interviews.
You have three effective placement options:
Use this if tools are a major part of your role.
Mention tools directly in bullet points to show how you used them.
List tools + reinforce them inside experience bullets.
Example (Strong Approach):
Implemented Google Classroom to manage assignments and improve submission rates by 30%
Used PowerSchool to track student progress and communicate performance updates
Instead of random tools, organize them into clear categories. This makes your resume easier to scan and more professional.
These are critical. Most schools expect familiarity.
Include tools like:
Google Classroom
Canvas
Schoology
Blackboard
Tip: Always include at least one LMS if you’ve used it.
Show you can operate physical classroom tools.
Include:
Smartboards / Interactive Whiteboards
Projectors
Document Cameras
Classroom audio systems
Recruiter insight:
Many candidates skip this—but schools value teachers who can confidently manage classroom hardware.
This category signals your ability to measure learning effectively.
Include:
Kahoot
Quizizz
Edulastic
Formative
i-Ready
Strong positioning:
Tie these tools to student outcomes whenever possible.
These are essential for day-to-day teaching operations.
Include:
PowerSchool
Infinite Campus
Skyward
Important:
If you’ve used an SIS, always list it—it reduces training risk for employers.
These are expected baseline skills.
Include:
Google Workspace (Docs, Slides, Sheets)
Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)
Prezi
Canva
Show how you connect with families and students.
Include:
Remind
ClassDojo
Seesaw
Email platforms
Why this matters:
Parent communication is a major hiring factor, especially in K-12 roles.
Demonstrates control and structure in the classroom.
Include:
ClassDojo
PBIS apps
Behavior tracking systems
Only include if applicable.
IEP Direct

Tip:
This is a major advantage if applying for inclusion or SPED roles.
Now essential in most schools.
Include:

Shows ability to personalize instruction.
Include:

If you’re applying for leadership, instructional coaching, or advanced roles, include:

Benchmark assessment tools
Key insight:
Advanced tools signal leadership potential and higher-level responsibility.
Familiar with educational technology
Used online tools in classroom
Google Classroom, Canvas, Schoology
Smartboard, document camera, classroom projector
PowerSchool, Infinite Campus (SIS)
Kahoot, Quizizz, Edulastic (assessment tools)
Zoom, Microsoft Teams (virtual instruction)
Lexia, DreamBox (intervention software)
Why this works:
Specific, scannable, and aligned with hiring needs.
Listing tools is not enough. You must show results.
Long lists without structure look messy and unfocused.
Avoid listing tools that are no longer widely used unless required.
“Technology skills” means nothing without specifics.
Many candidates forget to include systems they use every day (like SIS platforms).
If the school uses Canvas and you only list Google Classroom, you may be filtered out.
Before submitting your resume:
Scan the job posting for required tools
Highlight repeated platforms
Mirror those tools in your resume (if you’ve used them)
Use exact names (not general terms)
Example:
If the job says “experience with Schoology preferred,” you must write “Schoology”—not just “LMS experience.”
Include equipment if:
You teach in K-12 environments
The role requires classroom setup or tech management
You work in hands-on or hybrid environments
Interactive whiteboards (Smartboard)
Classroom projectors
Document cameras
Printers and laminators
Instructional manipulatives
Ideal range:
8–15 relevant tools
Organized into categories
Focused on tools you actually used
Quality beats quantity.
