Your statements are all very general and passive. It's good, but a compelling resume would be a little more active and give clear examples and objective data.

For example, instead of "Outstanding supervisory, management and organizational skills", try "Implemented strategic instruction course for 150 students from various academic and personal backgrounds".

See how the later is an objective measure of what you really accomplished and sounds like you took charge and implemented this program? Everyone on a resume will say the have excellent this or that, but if you show good hard instances in which you used these skills, employers will tend to believe you more :)

Also, whenever you can you should use a verb at the beginning of each of these sentences:

Managed, organized, implemented, demonstrated, etc. Use glossary.com or thesaurus.com to help you find words - they will be your best friend.

Good luck!
