Dear Mrs Barrett,
This
is Parham and I have seen your advertisement in a local magazine to find someone to assist you with some work at your place. I wanted to state that I will be available from the beginning of the summer. Let me explain more. According to your ad, I would be able to help you with your garden and keep your place tidy and clean by allocating some hours during the week.
Also
, I have a good background in working with electronic devices and fixing them which might be practical.
Although
my English is not perfect,
this
would be a time to practice and learn more.
Hence
, it would be a great chance for me to improve my language skills and meanwhile help you with your errands.
Moreover
, as I denoted, I will be available during the summer and specifically, I can help you during the weekdays from 3:00 to 6:00 in the evening. Please let me know if you would like me to assist you. Best regards, Parham
