Dear Mrs Phillips,
I am writing to you in order to apply for a job as activities supervisor. Accommodation would not be a problem as one of my friends has an apartment nearby and I could start whenever you request me.
I am sure that I would be the right candidate for this job because I love working with children. I am the oldest in my family so I have been always caring all my cousins and brothers. We used to play games that I invented. For example we used to play with card which I had made.
Therefore, my skills and background are perfect for this job. I can speak English fluently (B2). Two year ago I finished my degree in primary education and last year I worked as a staff in a summer camp with teenagers. I truly believe that children are a little treasure and I enjoy every second with them.
I would appreciate an opportunity to speak to you and discuss any requirement of the job.
Your sincerely,
Francisco José

Dear Mrs. Phillips,
I am writing to you in order to apply for a job as activities supervisor. Accommodation would not be a problem as one of my friends has an apartment nearby and I could start whenever you request me to (or "request me to start working.")
I am sure that I would be the right candidate for this job because I love working with children. I am the oldest in my family so I have been always been caring for (or "taking care of") all my cousins and brothers. We used to play games that I invented. For example, we used to play with cards which I had made.
Therefore, my skills and background are perfect for this job. I can speak English fluently (B2). Two year ago I finished my degree in primary education and last year I worked as a staff member in ("at") a summer camp with teenagers. I truly believe that children are a little treasures and I enjoy every second with them.
I would appreciate an opportunity to speak to you and discuss any requirement of the job.
Yours sincerely,
Francisco José
