Dear forum members,

 

We would like to enroll our son in an English nursery school - admission is very difficult (at this age!!). Though we belive our English is acceptable for normal communication, we are not too sure about formal letter writing. We appreciate any corrections/tips/help. Thank you very much

 

Martha

Dear Sir/Madam:


>>

We would like to apply for our son´s admission to your nursery school in 2007. Our son´s name is Jamshed and he is 16 months old.

After having spoken to a friend of ours, Dr. Ravi Chandra, whose children are attending St. Paul´s, we believe your school can provide a good and stimulating environment for our son. Dr. Chandra suggested that we contact you early on, due to the growing demand for enrollment in the nursery school. >>

 >>

An important motivation for selecting a multinational school is our personal background. My husband Koti was born in India (his mother is Indian) and raised in China, where he visited an international school. Our family and many of our friends are spread all over the world - India, Britain, United States, Australia and Singapore - so English has become the de facto lingua franca. Apart from the language aspect, we believe that an early exposure to another culture is particularly helpful for a young child. >>

 >>

Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at the above address or by phone at (1234) 5678. We thank you for considering our application, and we look forward to hearing from you soon. >>

Yours sincerely,

Very nicely done, actually-- just a couple of cosmetic changes.  The date and everything else is now seen more commonly against the left margin.  Good luck getting your son into this school.

Thanks a lot for your feedback - it is very helpful. To be honest, I had to spend a lot of time putting the letter together, and I am of course very pleased to receive your positive feedback. I wish you and your team all the very best and good luck for the future -

Martha
