I worked for a big company called Chevron, and one of my colleagues told me that Cambridge university search for new tutors in the financial department;
Hence
, I sent them my paper and fortunately I passed the
first
interview,
also
they were excited because of the experience I have. A few days later, they sent me a mail to inform me about some required steps that included a recommendation letter from my college.
Accordingly
, you were the
first
one who came to my mind, and I would be appreciated it if you write
this
letter for me.
Also
, you could tell them about the competition that I participated in the
last
year and my research about improving the relationship between tutors and students, as I think it will give me the chance to be acceptable.
In addition
to
this
, I have a plan that if I have got accepted, I will travel there with my children so that it will be beneficial to them to have appropriate education in
such
a country. I would be grateful if you would help me in
this
matter and I look forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully,
