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 Barett, I am writing in response to your advertisement in a local newspaper seeking somebody to help you with your household work upcoming summer. I could do anything from washing dishes to doing and folding laundry. I can even do grocery shopping,
in addition
to preparing occasional afternoon snacks. I have learnt to do all these chores right at my house as I have to fill in for the duties of my mother, who has to travel for professional reasons. I have a long holiday
next
summer and I am planning to take painting classes. It would be a great opportunity for me if I could earn some extra cash to fund the classes while helping you at your home.
Moreover
, I am an international student and working with you can help me to improve my English speaking skills.
However
, I will not be available on weekends as I will be going to attend my classes.
Also
, I would be taking a lunch break of an hour daily between 1 PM to 2 PM. I hope my timings fit you. Hoping for a positive response, Yours sincerely, Rubina
