Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing

this

letter regarding the job offer for part-time voluntary work published in the local newspaper, which I am really interested in applying for. The reason why I would like to be chosen for

this

opportunity is that I am in my

last

year of college and

this

would count as extracurricular hours I am required to have in order to be able to graduate.

Besides

, many companies value

this

type of experience when choosing candidates, as they make you become more empathetic and a better team player,

therefore

it would be a great chance for me to improve my skills. I strongly believe that my communication and memory skills would be helpful in your team for guided tours.

In addition

, I have deep knowledge of Office skills, as I took a course, and that allows me to help with administrative activities.

Also

, I am able to learn extremely fast, so I would be able to help you with plenty of tasks. One important piece of information is that I will be available only from December to January during my summer vacation, which is when you receive more visitors. I am free both morning and afternoon, so please choose the one that suits you best. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours sincerely, Mariana
