I've been working on a blog post specifically around resumes, based on the advice I've received after attending several seminars from job hunting experts on how to write resumes to get an interview.
I'll summarize their advice, as it applies to your resume:
Photo is inappropriate, especially in the US. Use your photo on LinkedIn, but your wife and daughter are not appropriate. If you want to use this photo, you can use it on your own website.
Your projects do not have dates. Overall, I'm not sure what this section is. Is this experience? If so, it should go into experience and it should be tied to a job title.
Include a job title, include keywords, re-write your summary to describe the job you want, not the job you had. Match to the job you're applying to.
The way you described your accomplishments as a math teacher is better than the way you describe your accomplishments in your projects as a ????. You're using very few past-tense verbs to describe what you did. It reads as though you're describing what the project is about, not what you did. Check out this list of verbs to help you describe your accomplishments: livecareer.com/career/advice/jobs/...
Put your full list of skills at the end, after Education.
You might want to look into a "functional" resume format. It might work better for you. Don't sell yourself short trying to keep your resume to 1-page.
I also agree with the people who said LinkedIn, black and white, and reducing your name for space. If someone prints this out, they'll use black ink, not purple.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
