Dear Ms Zhang:

I was excited to see your opening for a Chinese Teaching Assistant. I hope to be invited for an interview.

My background includes serving as a salesperson in retail store and English teaching assistant in a Foreign Language school.  My responsibilities included providing products to customers in the retail store and assisting teachers. In the salesperson position, I learned how to get along with the people; I demonstrated the ability to persuade people to buy products, and resolved issues or complaint from consumers. In the teaching assistant position, I learned an instructor’s teaching methods in order to help the students after class or in the morning readings part. By following the instructor guidance, I formatted. I also gave my instructor some creative suggestions when needed.

In addition to the experiences, I work for the Chinese Students Organization. We focus on one goal and work together to achieve it. We discuss and negotiate problems instead of worrying about them.

My major is broadcasting; it gives me the ability to know what is going on in the world. I have some computer skills, such as Final Cut, Soundslides and, of course, Microsoft office.. Please see the accompanying resume about my experiences and education.

I am confident that I can offer the skills you are seeking.  Feel free to call me 256-856-6423 or email me fuyu90521@gmail.com at anytime to arrange an interview. I look forward to leaning more from this position.

Sincerely,

Yu Fu
