Task Achievement
Consider elaborating more on why the job is important to you beyond the financial necessity. Discuss your passion for the field or your career goals. This could give your letter a more compelling narrative and emotionally connect with the reader.
Coherence & Cohesion
While your letter has clear paragraphs and a logical structure, you could enhance coherence by connecting your paragraphs more smoothly. Phrases like 'Apart from that' can be replaced with transitional expressions that show causation or addition more clearly, such as 'Moreover,' or 'In addition, this position...'.
General Advice
For an even stronger letter, consider adding specific examples of your achievements or qualities that make you an ideal candidate for the position. Asking your teacher to mention these in the reference could make your application stand out.
