Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing in response to your advertisement which was published in "The Daily News' on 6th April. The position I am interested in applying for is that of group leader in your Summer Camp.
I think that you should choose me because I'm good at sports.I am athletic and have always engaged in organising and actively participating in sports events. I have, for instance, been captain of the swimming team for the last three years. For this reason, I believe that I possess the leadership and organisational skills that you mention in your advertisement.
You also mention that applicants should engage in more than two sports activities. I would therefore like to inform you that I also do horse-riding, rock-climbing and water-sports such as surfing. With regards to knowledge of foreign languages, besides speaking French and Spanish very well, I can also speak German. I doubt that you'll find someone as good as me for the position because I speak lots of languages. As for the sociability factor, I have no difficulty making friends and enjoy meeting new people. My involvement in all these activities has helped me improve both my social and communication skills.
I am thus confident that I will be able to communicate with foreign children effectively. I have enclosed a reference letter from my swimming coach and my Physical Education teacher as proof of my ability in the activities I have mentioned. I hope my application will be taken into consideration.
