Dear ____

We are writing to inform that a spelling error has been identified at the very first word of the title of the document that was sent last year. We would like to know if, and strongly hope, it is possible to correct that error. Where it reads 'Comunication', it should read 'Communication'. Honestly speaking, we don't know how neither the analysts nor the authors saw that inconvenient lapse.

Looking forward to your positive response.

Thanks in advance Dear Sir or Madam, My name is ***... Hello. I have to write a motivational letter to apply for a bachelor program in one of the European universities. I would appreciate if you could check my letter and correct the mistakes. Thanks in advance

Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is *** ***. I am a 19-year-old student at ***, studying Management in Show Business in my second semester. I would like to apply for a place in your university to study Media and Entertainment Management.

First of all, studying abroad would be a great opportunity for me to receive the necessary knowledge and experience for my future job in Music Management. The fact that the university is provided with practice facilities with an in-house media production company is very important for me as I consider practical trainings to be necessary to acquire the theoretical knowledge. Furthermore, paid internship during the last year makes this studying program even more attractive for me.

On the other side, studying in a different country would help me to improve my English and learn Dutch, because the best way to learn languages is through talking to native speakers. In addition, I would get a chance to learn more about Dutch culture and customs.

I’ve chosen Media and Entertainment Management because I’ve been interested in different kinds of media and entertainment, especially music, since the early childhood. It’s always been my dream to work in music industry and I hope that studying in *** University will help me to achieve my aim.

I consider myself to be a motivated and open-minded person. I like to explore unknown areas of knowledge, develop and improve my skills. I can speak Ukrainian and Russian fluently, also I’m working on improving my English every day and starting to learn Dutch.

I’m an optimistic, communicative, creative, reliable and responsible person. My interests include travelling, making photographs, going to concerts and theatre performances and meeting new people from all around the world.

Thank you for considering my request.

Yours faithfully,

Dear Sir or Madam:
I am writing to express my sincere thanks to two of your staff, Susan Smith, for her great assistance. I booked two air tickets for December 31: one is your air flight 222 to Hongkong, and the other is English air flight 333 to Bombay. Flight 222 was delayed two hours due to bad weather conditions and I would miss my flight to Bombay. I was extremely worried and went to a staff member(later I knew she was Ms Smith) and told her my problem. She made a call immediately and changed an earlier flight for me very soon.
Because of her help, I arrived at Hongkong in time and boarded my flight. I appreciated her very much and if possible, I would like you to praise her and reward her with a honor title.
Yours faithfully

Hello, please could you correct me this letter of aplication? the level is for FCE. thank you very much.:up::up::up:


Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to you concerning the study grants advertisement, which I saw in Monday’s issue “The Guardian” and I would apply for a grant to study English in one of your schools this summer.

The reason why I am interested in this English course is because I am keen to improve my English and would like the opportunity to practice my English with native speakers. And I am considering studying my degree in the UK when I finish the school.

I need this grant because I can’t afford to study in UK. In my family we are 6 siblings and this could be my opportunity to study abroad and learn about the British culture and the way of life there. It would be better for me if I could be in your London school as I have my aunt living there.

I am available for interview at any time and look forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully

I am hereby applying for entrance for the Bachelor's in Economic and Business at the Universiteit van Amsterdam in September 2013.

The subject of Economics fascinates me. It is interconnected with most social sciences and is the reason behind most our decisions. I wish to educate myself on its complexity and learn the useful tools on how to benefit from my knowledge on this subject. BSc in Economics and Business is the perfect program for me. After having completed BSC, I would like to extend my studies focusing on finance and UvA offers master program just for that.

During my secondary education I participated in many exchange programs to England and Scotland. I realized that living in another country made me more mature, acquire new skills and clarify my life goals. As I visited United Kingdom before, I chose USA as the country to spend a year in as an exchange student. Studying in USA offered many new experiences. I was the most interested in choosing subjects I preferred and picking classes with higher difficulty. One among many highlights in the US was the participation at the DECA state championships; a competition for all business and marketing students in the whole state. I was fascinated about how businesses operated, how marketing worked and how everybody could be unconsciously influenced. I also participated few school debates over subjects like same sex marriage and gun control. Researching and debating these and similar issues influenced me in choosing Netherlands as the country in which I would like to live and study.

A very obvious reason why the UvA is an attractive university is its internationality. Amsterdam is very international making UvA the perfect place to start an international business career. The university has a high percentage of international students. I would love to be among international students, because it is a great possibility to broaden my horizons and get in touch with people on international scale. This I see as a clear advantage in pursuing career in business and economics. Another good reason for me to join the UvA is its high standard of education. UvA is highly ranked and this attracts top professors. In addition, the wide range of top partner universities and student networks offer more possibilities to better education.

All this distinguishes UvA from other universities and is making my choice clear on at what university I want to study. Thank you for considering my application. I would be very pleased to be granted admission for the fall term. ]]> Letter Writing amstivan http://www.usingenglish.com/forum/letter-writing/190091-please-just-help-me-correct-grammar-my-motivation-letter.html http://www.usingenglish.com/forum/letter-writing/190034-please-help-me-writing-my-motivation-letter-correcting-my-mistakes.html Mon, 29 Apr 2013 18:18:08 GMT HI, I want to kindly ask you to proofread my motivation letter and help me correct and rephrase incorrectly written sentences. Thank you in advance.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am hereby applying for entrance for the Bachelor's in Economic and Business at the Universiteit van Amsterdam in September 2013.In the following letter I will explain why I think that the UvA is the ideal university for me and I am for it.

First of all, I would like to give you some background information about me.
I am from the capital city of Slovakia, Bratislava. As my father has German heritage I was exposed to German at the very young age. As I started school I came across languages as Spanish and English. Being reminded the role of English as international language I wanted to become fluent. Also my father is an international businessman and I think that is what motivated me in pursuing career in business from very young age and seeing the importance of international languages in business.

During my secondary education I participated in many exchange program to England and Scotland. I realized that living in another country was making me mature faster, acquire skills and clarifying my life goals. As I visited United Kingdom before, I chose USA as the country to spend a year in as an exchange student. Studying in USA offered many new experiences. I was the most interested in choosing subjects I preferred and picking classes with higher difficulty. This made me choose classes like Business and Marketing" and "Honors Contemporary American and World Issues". Business and Marketing inspired me to participate in DECA state championship. This experience made me realize that career in business is the one for me. Through Contemporary American and World Issues I participated in few school debates over subjects like same sex marriage and gun control. I think researching and debating issues like and similar to these made me ultimately choose Netherlands as the country in which I would like to live and study.

A very obvious reason why the UvA is an attractive university is its internationality. Netherlands are already very international, but Amsterdam takes it a bit further making Amsterdam the perfect place to start an international business career. The university has a high percentage of international students. I would love to be among international students because it is a great possibility to broaden my horizons and get in touch with people on international scale, what I see a clear advantage in pursuing career in business and economics. Another good reason for me to join the UvA is its high standard of education. UvA is highly ranked and this attracts top professors. In addition, the wide range of top partner universities and student networks offer more possibilities to better education.

I wish to express my interest in your Masters in Euro MPM Program. The interesting fact about the program is the diversity of course and conduction of program in international environment with a chance to spend a semester in one of the partner University. Companies and their operations in national and international markets have always fascinated me. That is why I am aiming for a profession in that direction. In search of the right education and qualification for the career I wish to pursue, Fachhochschule Dortmund appeared as one of the best places to study for me. I am interested, not just because of its good reputation , but also because of its International Management Program. I note that this program combines academic theory with important soft-skills and meaningful knowledge concerning foreign cultures. In an project market that is driven by globalization, the importance of teaching exactly those additional skills has increased significantly in the last few years. You cannot do business globally without interacting with foreign cultures and for that you need to understand those cultures. Another important aspect about the Project Management Program offers is the relationship to internships and practical experience, which is at least as important as the theoretical knowledge. For that, it is not only required to complete internships but also is the schedule designed so that there is plenty of time to fulfill them.
I can show both theoretical and practical prerequisites for the applied degree program. While working with Sysol I experienced the world of customer services in international envoirnment as well. Furthermore, I have a high willingness to perform and a readiness of mind, that which I demonstrated in an extracurricular internship and in vacation jobs. Those qualifications enable me to live up to the name of Fachhochschule Dortmund.
As a European Master of Project management I would seek for a career in a medium-sized to large company that operates in the global market. In that matter I would benefit from EMPm´s good reputation and find my place in the business world with greater speed and success.
