Dear Hiring Manager, I am writing to you regarding the position of the English language teacher that was posted in the magazine in January’s edition. As an experienced instructor, I have taught children of different ages for the
last
 twenty years. I am organized, responsible, goal-oriented person.
Last
 five years I have to spend overseas teaching students in Korea, Japan and India. My abroad experience might be an asset to your team as your school accepts kids from different countries. I would like to ask you a couple of questions before scheduling an interview. My main concern is the number of hours I have to spend in school. Most school boards require teachers to spend at least 4 hours at work after their classes finish. My preference would be to grade the tests and complete the necessary paperwork at home. Please, let me know if it is possible. Another question that I have is the possibility of outdoor classes. During late spring and early fall,I have noticed that it is hard to keep children organized in classrooms. For the
last
 three years,I have taught children outside and find it much easier to keep kids interested in the subject. I look forward to your reply. Sincerely, Jane Atkinson
