Second draft of the Application Letter

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing in response to your advertisement on El Mercurio in the May 10, 2013. I would like to be considered for the position of English teacher in this primary school. I studied English at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso and I have some experience at teaching in public and private primary schools, so I hope this would qualify me for the position.

I am an English teacher graduated from Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso three years ago. Aside from the English program, I have made some courses about group management and didactics. Indeed, I have a huge interest in motivation, interaction and participation of children, which allows me to have the opportunity to develop my abilities in this area.

After my studies in English program I worked in a public school for three years with primary and secondary students, therefore I have a wide knowledge in the student’s behavior. During this period, I had a closer relationship with primary school students, and I had the opportunity to learn more about their characteristics, needs, habits, likes, and behavior. Thus, I learned deeply how to work with them and teach them according to everything already mentioned in order to have a better learning. I consider myself a responsible, committed and goal-driven person; indeed, I have succeeded in everything I have set out to achieve and I always do my best.

The enclosed résumé provides more information about my education and experience, but I would appreciate the opportunity to meet with you at your convenience to discuss my application. You can reach me after noon since Monday to Thursday at 74726064 or leave a message anytime at macaa.g@live.cl.

Yours faithfully,

Paola Gutiérrez
