Dear Sir or Madam,
Hope my letter finds you well.
I am writing
this
letter to express my interest regarding on the advertisement that you posted in Australian Magazine last
Saturday.
Please be informed that I am really interested in the job since I have experience in how to take care of young ones. Firstly
, please note that I am very flexible. I can adapt directly to the environment. Another one is, having too many nephews and nieces way back home, therefore
, communication is not an issue. Secondly
, I have experience in volunteering in teaching kids how to respect old people as well as a proper way to greet them conducted by our local town. Lastly
, I believe this
is a good chance for me to acquire new skills that I can use later on.
Thus
, appreciated it if you could consider my application. Kindly note that while waiting for the result, I will be using my free time to explore the country. I will be visiting the famous Niagara Falls.
Should you have any concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
Elvera GuzaSubmitted by jbcornejo on

The Greeting
Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.
Always start an informal letter in the ways:
- Dear + name
- Hi / Hello + name
‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.
For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:
- Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
- Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
