Ms. Sheila McBeath Executive Director N.E.E.D.S. Inc. 251-A Notre Dame Avenue Winnipeg, Manitoba R3B 2N1

Dear Ms. McBeath,

I am interested in an opportunity to volunteer with new immigrants, especially the youth. Thus, I am applying for the position of Classroom Assistant – CP Program at N.E.E.D.S Inc., as advertised on Volunteer Manitoba’s website in June, 2013.

I worked as an office assistant for a Taiwanese trading company in Viet Nam. Having had over three year’s experience working with customer service and office tasks, I have learned how to be a good listener and handle problems with ease. Every summer, I participated in a volunteering campaign that decreases illiteracy rate in children in remote areas. I also counseled some teenagers aged 15 – 17 in my network for their future career orientations and arranged some weekend studying groups to help them with English grammar and skills.

As I understand it, this position requires someone who is able to be not only a teaching or tutor assistant but also a sympathizer. Being an immigrant, I believe I can be an asset to your organization and my experience can assist newcomers, especially the youth, adapt to the Canadian community.

My enclosed resume outlines my experience and skills. Please consider my application and call me at your earliest convenience for an interview. I can be reached at (phone number) or by email at (address).
