Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to express my interest in the job that was advertised in the weekly Australian magazine
last
week. I am a student at Sydney University which is located near your house. The reason that I am looking for a part-time job is to manage my expenses.
Moreover
, I have been studying early childhood diploma since this
summer. I have a vast knowledge of children
at age 0-9. In addition
, I am the eldest sister in a family with 5 children
. Since I was 6 years old, I had to help my parents to look after my four siblings. So I am confident that I can play, teach and deal with young children
effectively.
Apart from that, I have been doing a volunteer job in a shelter where about 40 homeless children
are living. I usually come to that shelter at the weekends to teach the children
how to read and write.
I thank you for your consideration and look forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,

A more suitable tone can be achieved by further personalizing the letter, possibly by showing enthusiasm for the cultural exchange experience and by expressing genuine interest in the family and their needs.
The Greeting
Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.
Always start an informal letter in the ways:
- Dear + name
- Hi / Hello + name
‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.
For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:
- Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
- Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
