You have seen an advertisement in Australian Magazine for someone to live with a family for six months and look after their six year old child. Write a letter to the parents. In your letter • Explain why you would like the job? • Give details of why you would be a suitable person to employ • Say how you would spend your free time while you are in Australia. v.1

Dear Sir/ Madam, I am Muaj Khan, I am writing in regards with an advert which I saw in Australian Magazin this morning. I am passionate to do this work. I would like this job for two main reasons. Firstly, I love kids and spending time with them is fun. Let's take my own example, I am actually from grandparent and extended family background where all our uncle and aunt kinds not only live together, but also grow with family values. I have an experience raising cousins from all different ages like 2 to 8 years old. Secondly, I have recently done a First Aid course. I would be the best suitable person for this work as I have always understood the needs of children as well as this I have learned a lot while looking after them. To illustrate, I have been rewarded and appreciated in my current job, which I am doing with an Italian family. I am looking after their two young children aged 5 and 9. Another thing your child will love is my jolly and caring nature, she will enjoy my company. If I get this job, I would love to visit different places, meet new people, and also know their culture which I can do in my free time for sure during my time in Australia. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully,
