Question

【题目】Dear Sir/Madam,

I have seen your advertisement for a teacher in the magazine Guangzhou Education. I think I'm suitable for the job.

I am 28 years old. I finished my high school education in Xiamen, and then went to university in Fuzhou. I studied languages, with English as my major (主修课程). I always got good scores for all subjects. At university, I was a very active student. I was chairman of the English Film Club and a member of the university squash (壁球) team.

I have traveled to a number of English-speaking countries. I think my English language skills have improved as a result and I can teach senior classes without any problems

I have worked as a teacher for four years. I have taught at a well-known language school in Hangzhou. This has been a good experience. I have also taught special courses in Writing for Business, showing people how to write good business letters for Tour Guides. All these experiences have helped me become a good teacher.

I am a warm and friendly person, and my students enjoy my lessons. I think language learning can be fun. I always encourage my students to use English outside the classroom, do projects and take part in English language activities. I have helped my students put on plays and of English songs.

I want to live in Guangzhou and teach in your school. I hope for an interview so I can tell you more.

Yours faithfully,

William Fang
