Mrs Barrett, an English-speaking woman who lives in your town, has advertised for someone to help her in her home for a few hours a day next summer. Write a letter to Mrs Barrett. In your letter: • suggest how you could help her in her home • say why you would like to do this work • explain when you will and will not be available

Dear Mrs Barrett, I am writing
this
letter with regards to the advertisement you posted on the internet looking for someone to work at your house
next
summer. I would like to apply to be your helper. I have been through your announcement and I have a lot of experience with housekeeping and household services from cleaning, washing and ironing to repairs, painting and even gardening.
Therefore
I could be helpful with different types of tasks during the renovation of your home. Among the reasons I would be a good feat, the main ones are that I am really hardworking, experienced and I love to learn new things and help out others.
Furthermore
, I am fluent in English and that would make our communication a lot easier.
Also
during
next
summer
although
I will be on vacation from college, I am only available from Monday to Saturday and in the afternoon period, as I have been doing piano classes in the mornings and
this
money would help out my family with my college fund. I look forward to hearing from you and I am available in case you need any additional information. Thank you! Kind regards

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
