Dear Sir/Madam,
I would like to apply for the position of camp helper. Please find my CV attached.
I believe I would be a valuable addition to your team. My English is at an intermediate level, and I have travelleld to several English-speaking countries. I have also helped to organise a three-day tour of my city for visiting exchange students.
I have experienced in working with animals, and I have also volunteered at a local library to help organise the children's section. I am a team player and I enjoy working with others. I have been captain of my school table tennis team for two years, so I know how to lead and decide on priorities.
With my proficiency in Chinese calligraphy, I could also conduct classes for your visitors to help them learn more about this beautiful aspect of Chinese culture.
The prospect of welcoming exchange students to our country is very exciting, and I am keen to use my skills to give them a warm welcome and an experience they will always remember.
I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible.
Yours faithfully,
Kelly Xu

Dear Sir/Madam,
I would like to apply for the position of camp helper, my CV attached.
I believe I would be a valuable addition to your team. First of all, having traveled to several English-speaking countries, I think it easy for me to guide new guests to the reception area. My experience in working with animals and volunteering to help organise the children's section is another edge of mine. Besides, I have been captain of my school table tennis team for two years, which enables me to lead and decide on priorities. As a keen student with proficiency in Chinese calligraphy, I could also conduct classes for your visitors to help them learn more about this beautiful aspect of Chinese culture.
Were I chosen, I would devote myself to being a qualified volunteer. Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours faithfully,
Kelly Xu
