Dear Michael,
I am writing to request if you could write a recommendation letter for my new job application.
This
job I am applying for is in the educational sector. More specifically, I will be
teaching English to primary school students.
Let me explain the content in the letter in more detail. It would be great if you could mention my ability to speak multiple languages which are German and French. Also
is would be also
much
helpful if you could mention my characters like timeliness and amicable, for example
. Lastly
, If you could also
include my achievements during my work with you in the past
that would fit just right enough.
Would you be able to send this
letter by the end of this
week? Apologies for asking such
a great deed within a short timeframe. But, my job at this
institution will start in a week
and I would like to stand out amongst other applicants.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerly
,
Rakesh.Correct your spelling
sincerely
