So- the following is an ACTUAL EMAIL that I sent today to an ACTUAL PERSON and I FORGOT TO EFFING PROOFREAD IT. I WILL NEVER GET THIS JOB IF MY GRAMMAR IS HEINOUS AND I LEAVE OUT VERBS AND I SOUND ABOUT 13 YEARS OLD. BLAHHH!:
Dear Mr. Wang,
Hi, my name is Allison and I'm a sophomore and an English major at
Warren Wilson College. I on the Warren Wilson College inside page that
you were looking for teachers at your middle school in China and it made me curious. I've been thinking a lot about teaching English in a foreign country after having spoken to
several people who have and who found it to be a fulfilling experience. I
may not meet the sort of criteria for the job (perhaps I have to be a
college graduate already, or over 21, I'm not sure). I just thought I'd
ask what kind of requirements there were because it couldn't hurt.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Allison Jarrett
