Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to you in regard to the advertisement that was published on one of the online job portals recently.
Firstly
, let me brief you on my personal experience in teaching my language. Although
I am a mathematics teacher by profession, my major at university was in Sinhala language, which is the language of my mother tongue. I have been teaching Sinhala for many years, and cater to both students who are local as well as
foreign, also
have proven to be an effective tutor for pupils to achieve high grades on their exams.
Moreover
, as I mentioned earlier, mathematics is what I currently teach at school, and I have obtained the necessary training. If there is a requirement for teaching this
topic, I would be happy to provide my services.
Additionally
, I would also
like to note that, this
specific advert caught my attention immediately since I am very keen on teaching overseas students, where one reason being as I am in the process of applying for teaching jobs in Australia, such
work as this
would help in that process. Furthermore
, I believe teaching students who are from a different country also
benefits me in one way, as I would obtain the chance to learn their culture in the process.
Thus
, I hope you will take my application into consideration when choosing the teacher for your children, and look forward to a positive reply.
Yours sincerely,
James BluntSubmitted by kanishka.wimalasuriya on
