Dear Mrs Barrett,
I came across your advertisement in the local newspaper and am interested to take care of your daily chores at your home
this
summer. I am a thirty years woman and I am pursuing my degree in Horticulture from Texas University.
I have understood from your advertisement that you need help at home, cleaning your garage, vacuuming the house and some basic cooking. Furthermore
, I would take care of your garden and apply my expertise in planting fruits and vegetables for the summer. I could trim the grass and add outdoor planters which would be quite enjoyable while hosting barbecues outside.
I would like to help you as I would make use of my vacation and also
earn some additional money for my trip to Miami. I could apply new techniques that I am learning, and feature the photographs in my coursework for extra credits for my Degree which would boost my career.
My summer break commences on 1st May and I would be available from 9 am to 12 pm on weekdays. In addition
to that, I am also
available on weekends from 10am to 6pm. My trip to Miami is from 3rd June until 10th June during which I would not be available.
I look forward to your reply and helping you this
summertime.
Yours sincerely,
Jane DoeSubmitted by kaurmanpreet1208 on
