Dear Sir or Madam,
My name is Jason Sarmiento, and I am writing to express my interest in teaching your children for a year, the national language of the Philippines.
I am an English teacher residing in Melbourne for work. I mostly specialize in teaching English to international students.
However
, I do have some experience as well in teaching the Filipino language as well as Filipino related studies, and I strongly believe that I am able to teach your children about our language as well as our culture and history.
I can provide one-on-one tutoring and can teach both subjects in one session. I believe it's important to know some knowledge of the Filipino languages and phrases if ever you and your family are planning to go for vacation in the Philippines, As you may know, some of the people in the Philippines do in fact understand a bit of English, but Linking Words
however
some may have some difficulties in communicating with you properly.
Please let me know if you are interested in my offer and I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours Sincerely,
Jason SarmientoLinking Words
