Dear Mr Cartwright,
I am writing to apply for the job of volunteer worker which I saw advertised in The Guardian last
week. I would be interested in teaching maths to primary children in your camp in Chittagong in
Bangladesh. I enclose a copy of my CV.
I am 18 years old and I have just finished secondary school in Newcastle. I would like to work
for you because I am very interested in teaching. I would also like to learn about a different
culture as I feel that intercultural understanding is extremely important.
I am a hard-working and committed person. I have participated for the last three years in a
voluntary programme, Community Links, visiting elderly people in my local area. I also feel that
I can get on well with people from other cultural backgrounds, since I have also taught
immigrant children English at our church school.
I think I would be a good primary teacher of maths due to my teaching experience. Also, I have
recently passed my Maths 'A' level (grade B), so I have a good understanding of the subject. In
addition, I hold a certificate in first aid, which might be useful.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely,
Ms Maureen Taylor

Dear Sir/ Madam, I am writing with regard to a problem with my accommodation. My name is
John smith; I am a resident in flat number 20 in the International Student Housing. I have been
facing a problem with the electricity, and I would like to inform you about it. And I want your
further suggestions concerning this manner.
The problem started on the 31st of June, when I came back from the university I found that the
electric energy went down. I though the problem with ECERP, since they are the utility company
responsible for the electric service on this side of the city. What support my though was I was
not sure weather or not I had updated my account with them when I move to my new flat. So I
sent a mail with my new flat number. And till this moment, there is no electricity in my
accommodation.
In conclusion, I want your suggestions concerning the cause of this drop in electric power.
Additionally, I would like your suggestion about the sort of act I had done and weather or not I
have the right to contact ECERP directly. Thank you very much for your time and consideration
and I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
JOHN SMITH.
