Dear Dr. Tribble,

Mr. Huang Zhoushan who has just returned from your college informs me that you are considering giving a course of the Chinese language to your students in the next academic year and looking for an eligible instructor for the positoin.

I have been teaching Chinese for almost 4 years to foreign students residing in China. Through my efforts I have come to know well the major differences between English and Chinese and found an effective way to achieve satisfactory results in teaching the Chinese language.

Kindly consider my application for the position and let me know when you have made a decision so that I may have time for necessary arrangements and preparations. I will be available from after this summer session.

Sincerely yours,
