Letter sample 18

IELTS tip

You will have to think of some ideas and supporting details but do not worry, these do not need to be interesting or amazing, they just need to be relevant. For example, if you have to explain why you need to take time off work, do not try to impress the examiner with a wonderfully dramatic story, just keep it simple e.g. family or health problems

You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.

Write at least 150 words.

You do NOT need to write any addresses.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am a 21-year-old student and I am studying Sports Coaching Science at St Mary's University. I have been studying there for the past three years. I am writing to ask if there are any part-time job vacancies at your football club.

I really enjoy sport, and my areas of particular interest and experience are Football, Rugby and Cricket. I have had some experience of coaching for these sports over the past three years that I have been at the University. Last year, I worked in the holidays at a football club in my own country. I will be able to provide references from this summer job and also from my teachers at the university.

I would prefer to work in the evenings and at the weekends, as I have classes during the daytime, and I can start from the beginning of November.

I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.

Yours faithfully,
Adam Lawerence
