Hi Mary, I hope
this
mail finds you well. Sorry for my late reply as I was busy with the year-end closing
last
week
. I know that you are struggling with the matter of whether you should continue your study or try to get a
job
in the coming months. You told me about how you felt in our
last
two
week
's gathering, you mentioned that you are not interested in the college as you have not determined your career path yet.
Thus
, I remember that your parents want you to pick the Information Technology subject in the tertiary institution. We knew each other for over a decade, I knew that you are talented in the art area.
Therefore
, I believe that you might not enjoy going to college if you just pick up a subject which you are not passionate about. I know that you just finished a childcare certificate
last
year. I suggest you should consider going to the career booth
next
week
, which is particular for any candidates who are interested in the educational industry. As far as I know, they will hire over 1000 candidates in the booth.
Hence
, it is a great chance to explore a
job
opportunity. I knew you are
also
interested in the childcare industry. I learnt from my friend, who told me that teachers need to prepare tailor-made daily courses that are required to have an art background. Because of
this
, I do believe a child care
job
might be suitable for you as the
job
natures have been involved in the art. Looking forward to seeing you
next
week
. Yours faithfully, XXXXXX
