【推荐3】Dear Mr. Green,

I am attracted by your advertisement and I would like to work with you from July to September.

I am a 19-year-old Portuguese（葡萄牙的）student and now I am studying at Porto University, in the north of Portugal. I have studied English since I was 8 years old, so I can speak English very well. I have been to English twice where I attended two summer courses.

I feel I would be suitable（合适的）for the job. I love children and good at playing with them. So I am popular with the children. Besides, I love sports and I exercise every day, so I can take part in all kinds of sports activities.

I have some work experience and have already done a few part-time jobs during summer holidays. Last summer I worked in a primary school to take care of school children while some teachers were on holiday. I also babysit for my neighbors when they need help.

I am looking forward to your reply.

Yours,

Maria Gonzales

Doctor Seuss is one of the best-loved and most successful children’s book writers in the world. His books are very popular with young readers.
