Mrs Barrett, an English-speaking woman who lives in your town, has advertised for someone to help her in her home for a few hours a day next summer. Write a letter to Mrs Barrett. In your letter - Suggest how you could help her in her home - Say why you would like to do this work - Explain when you will and will not be available

Dear Mrs Barrett, I would like to express my interest in offering my assistance around your house throughout my summertime break.

For instance

, I can help you mow the lawn, do your laundry and clean around the property. First of all,

this

job offer picked my interest because I used to do the chores for my granddad before.

Hence

, taking care of your house should pose no issues to me.

Furthermore

, you have been very kind to me back when I was a little kid with a bag of ginger cookies every Sunday afternoon.

Therefore

, I would like to repay your kindness with a little help of mine during the summer. With that being said, regarding my availability, since there is no school, I can be flexible in my schedule to come and tend the house for you. Since I need to spend the morning to complete my homework,

however

, I will not be available for the mornings of Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

In addition

, my summer club activities prevent me from helping you during the weekend afternoon. Please let me know if there is anything I can help you with. For my payment, I would love to try your batches of ginger cookies again, if possible to you. I am looking forward to your reply. Sincerely, Son Nguyen
