Second Draft: Application letter


Dear Sir,
I am writing you in response to your advertisement which I saw in today’s “The Guardian”. I am an English teacher and I would really like to work at your school.
My name is Astrid Campos and I am an EFL teacher. I graduated from the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso six years ago. I had been teaching at public and multilingual schools in Chile for two years before moving to the UK. Afterwards, I successfully completed my PhD in didactics, social integration and multiculturalism at the University of Cambridge. For the last two years I have been working at public schools here in London.
Due to my wide experience teaching in different contexts, I could perfectly fit in your school environment since I know, through your advertisement, that you receive students from all over the world. In addition, I am quite familiarized with your educational system, so with my knowledge of didactics and multiculturalism it is highly possible that your students could have even better results without losing their identity as members of a different culture.
The enclosed résumé provides more details about my teaching formation and career. If you have any doubts or you want further information, please do not hesitate to contact me at your convenience.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
Astrid Campos.
