You have seen an advertisement in Australian Magazine for someone to live with a family for 6 month and look after their 6-year-old child.
Write a letter to the parents. In this letter :
• Explain why you would like the job
• Give details of why you would be a suitable position to employ
• Say how you would spend your free time while you are in Australia.
Dear Mr and Mrs Collins
My name is Martha. I have seen your advertisement in a magazine and I’m writing to you because I would like to be considered for the position you are offering.
I really would like to be considered for the position you are offering. I really would like to work for you because I think it will be a good experience for you and me. I like to travel, know about different cultures and meet new people. I have never been to Australia but I’m pretty sure there are a lot of thing to see and try. I have previous experience looking after children.
Currently I am working for an Irish family and I take care of for children whose ages vary from three to eight. I have to say that I’ve never thought that looking after children would be that rewarding. I enjoy spending time with them with them and I have learnt a lot. I am really patient, tidy, reliable, and hard working.
In addition, I have just completed an first aids course. If I had the chance to live with you, I would spend my free time learning English, visiting tourist attractions, trying local food and making new friends.
Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. Pleease feel free to contact me if you need further details and recommendations.
Best regard,
Martha
