November Writing by Sara (Y5B, 2013-14)

Task Description: write a cover(ing) letter of application for a full time job as a Camp Monitor in the summer. It should be approximately 150 words.

Dear Mr. Cunningham,

I am writing to apply for the post of Camp Monitor I saw advertised on the summer camp website.

I hold a degree in physical education. I studied at the University of Malaga and graduated with honors. Spanish is my first language but I also have a high level of spoken English as I studied five years at the Official School of Languages in my city -- I have a C1 certificate.

I have worked for the last two summers as a monitor in a school. I had to plan activities and also took the children on an excursion to the mountains for a weekend. Besides, I hold a certificate in first aid.

I am very energetic and patient. I know how to work under pressure, and I love nature.

I enclose my CV and I would be glad to attend an interview at any time convenient to you. Thank you for your attention.

Yours sincerely,

Sara Yacobi
