Correct me

Hi, I have went through you message and I did my best to correct it (it comes after my
comments here). I only know American English, so it may not perfectly fit British English. I
changed:

I slipped from my track .I need a hand to come back to my track.
to:
I slipped off my track and I need a hand to get back on track.

This should be the only instance of American style English that the British may not use.

There are also a phrase and a sentence that I didn't quite understand,
1. I had been effected the policy of redundancy
2. Before the tragic accident I laid down my devotional attitude to the church in England as
well.

so I didn't change these. I wish you good luck in your appeal.
--------------

It is my wish to appeal against the decision taken on my application by the esteemed home
office early last month, as it is giving our family one of the most difficult situations I have
encountered in my 40 years of life. May you consider the following humanitarian aspects and
technical issues in my favor and approve the above said application.

BACKGROUND OF IMMIGRATION AS A MATHEMATICS TEACHER

I was teaching together with my wife Selin Royee in South Africa for 10 years as Math, IT
and science teachers. The school was achieving excellent results in all subjects. In 2002
August, one of the school from Derby County Council offered me a job as a full time
Mathematics teacher. (Annexure 1) I received the offer and we resigned from our jobs. I was
employed as an unqualified teacher and through one year of training (NQT 3) I could come
as a qualified teacher in Math. The school management had put me on a training programme
(Annexure 2)

MY BLACK DAY-13TH FEB 2003

On the way to my work on 13th Feb 2003, I was involved in a road traffic accident and one
victim had died as a result of the third party's careless driving. The police authority could
prove that I am innocent in this tragic accident. (Annexure 3) As a result of this accident I
became ill and unable to proceed to my job and the above said NQT training. (Annexure 4)
Because of my long absence I had been effected the policy of redundancy and lost my job.

MY CHILDREN’S FUTURE

I have two children, a 13 year-old boy and 6 year-old girl, learning Year 8 and year 2
respectively. Even though their dad is a victim of the accident, both of them are top stars of
the school. (Annexure 5). My son was one of the participants of the Math challenge 2004 in
the school level. One of my main reasons to come to England is for my children. It is their
wish to come to England and study. They never learned in my home country, India. They
have no experience in my mother tongue and in the system of education. If they have to go
back to our home country at this stage, obviously they will lose out on a better future.

OUR SOCIAL INVOLVEMENT

My family is Catholic. I was national secretary of one of the layman associations in India.
Before the tragic accident I laid down my devotional attitude to the church in England as
well. Now I am a dedicated active member of the parish of 700 families. The church
appointed me as a Foundation governor of one of their local schools. (Annexure 6). The
church is training me as a Eucharist minister.
My wife is a well trained childminder and she is giving her service to some NHS working
families. (Annex 7)
We two are trained in adult literacy training programme and we are helping both Pakistani
and local communities to eradicate the illiteracy, the cancer of society.

CONCLUSION

From my short two year stay I experienced England as a land of people of trustworthy,
humanitarian, and loving neighbourhoods. And it is our ambition to discharge our skills and
enamours cultural values for our loving community.
My current psychological and physical health will not allow me to go straight to the class
room. But it is my wish to come back to my career as a teacher. The intention of the school
which I applied for the work permit at is also the same.
I slipped off from my track and I need a hand to get back on track.
I am appealing to the respected business team to consider my current situation and approve
the application for work permit in my family's favor.

A LETTER OF APPEAL FROM THE SCHOOL IS ALSO ATTACHED
