Hello there. The following is my attempt at writing a request to a job advertisement, which is used as a possible version for my students. Can you please check it and help me polish it? Many thanks in advance.
Oh, by the way, there are two places underlined below. I write a slash between alternatives for each place. And I want to know — which alternative you think is more natural or better in its place?

Dear Chris(the Editor-in-chief of our school website),
I’m writing to apply for the position of Web Editor, advertised on our school website. I feel I am well qualified for the position because I always care a lot about current affairs and take great interest in journalism. Also, I’m good at English. Once I got the first prize in an English Writing Competition in our school. In addition,I worked as a reporter for our school newspaper last year,/I have had one year experience as a reporter with our school newspaper, which will surely help me do the job better.
A position with our school website would give me the opportunity to work part-time in the job that I love.
I would be happy to attend an interview at any time convenient to you.
I look forward to hearing from you. / Thank you for your time.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

Excuse me for my carelessness. I posted it to the wrong place again. Please help me move it to Letter Writing Sub-forum.
