　　dear sir,

　　i am a business management learner in shanghai, and my english is ok. my future job (in a certain shanghai firm of shoe-making) demands more and better management expertise and english knowledge, so i am thinking of a course in your school.

　　i learned my lessons at school very well and i passed business english tests and all english examinations. and my computer operation is first-rate.

　　i enjoy a large circle of friends for my nice temper and humor. i have a strong love for sports and a strong responsibility for whatever i think i should do. that's why my friends and teachers like me.

　　a friend in london told me about your school recently. he said yours has the best teachers of management and business, among other things. and is there anyone that hates london, where your school is?

　　i am young and single. i have a clever head and readiness for all hardship that is necessary for the degree that lies ahead. i know what i am going to do.

　　let me hear from you as soon as possible. thank you.

　　yours

　　dear sir/madam,

　　i am asking to be a student of teaching methodology in your school as yours is well known in this aspect.

　　i have been teaching english in a middle school in beijing for three years. i never get bored with my job or my students. i delight a great deal in making interesting lessons more interesting, and making boring lessons less so. so i have been keen on ways to improve my teaching, by reading nunan, harper, and widdowson and attending

　　foreign teachers' lectures.

　　i understand that a good teacher of english means a good speaker and writer. that's why i have done a lot to improve my ear and tongue and hand all the time. i have never passed a day without speaking after bbc. i speak english in most everyday situations. in the evening, when i enjoy my retirement and privacy, i seat myself in front of the computer and begin to write my diary. i never run out of things or terms, though admittedly short of time at times. it is great fun to use a computer for writing, which will surely shock shaw and shakespeare.

　　i will be reading all important books about tefl, or tesl,making friends with all significant ideas and persons. of course i will be writing some papers, to be published or not. it will be my honour to be involved in one of my teachers' research project. i know this is possible.

　　yours

　　truly,

　　jane austin
