You have seen an advertisement in an Australian magazine for someone to live with a family for six months and look after their six-year-old child. Write a letter to the parents. In your letter • Explain why you would like the job • Give details of why you would be suitable person to employ • Say how you would spend your free time while you are in Australia

Dear Mr Smith, I am Nikhil Dhaygude, a resident of Bangalore, India. I am writing

this

letter to put forward my candidature for the job advertised in the Australian magazine recently.

To begin

with, I am a highly trained educator with a diploma from a reputed Indian college. I have already worked with 3 other children in the past and all of them are thriving in their lives today.

Also

, I am current on all the required vaccinations.

In addition

to that, I find working with young minds highly satisfying and soul-enriching. The idea that I will help shape their cognitive process gives me a great sense of purpose. I feel there is no greater joy than that.

Moreover

, I was contemplating pursuing higher education in Australia.

Therefore

, in my free time, I would like to enrol in a course at the Australian State University.

Additionally

, I have been meaning to take up surfing as a hobby and, since Australian shores are known exactly for that, I cannot think of a better place to start. I sincerely hope you find me suitable for the job and hope to hear from you soon. Yours sincerely, Nikhil Dhaygude.
