| I would be very grateful if you could proof-read it and name the mistakes Thanks in advance! (Notice: A/B means that A and B differ depending where I'm going to apply; the whole application is via email) Subject Line: Volunteer Application Dear Mr./Mrs. Prename Surname, I am writing to inquire about the possibility of being accepted as a volunteer in your school/kindergarten/college. Having finsihed the school in 4 months by now, I am looking for an anthrophosophically oriented institution in which I want to work in for one year within my Voluntary Year of Social Service (German “FSJ”) in order to work with children/mentally disabled people, gain more experience in the fields of education and language as well as meet other countries and their cultures. I am a 19-year-old German on the brink of my a-level exam, very interested in sports, nature and helping others. I love science, computers, painting and music and the work with children/mentally disabled persons. Therefore I hope I can support you in your daily work with children and in anything else, e.g. cleaning rooms, gardening or other upcoming activities. For further information, I add a sheet I received from the organization through which I am planning my Voluntary Year of Social Service abroad. If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you. At the end, I will add some attachments (CV with photograph, certificates). What do you think of it? |

| Welcome to the forums. Quote:
Have you done any similar work already? Or even any voluntary work with either children or the mentally disabled? If so, then add in a sentence or two about that. Previous experience is always welcomed. |

| Thank you very much, Anglika. Quote: Having finished school four months ago ... I wanted to express that I still have to go four months to school, but after that, I will do my Social Year. Is it alright to say Having finished school in four months from now, ... ? |

| Ah! I did wonder which it was. Any of these will work: "I will have finished school in four months' time and..." "In four months' time I will finish school, and ..." "I will finish school in July and..." |
