i´m working late on a letter wich should be handed in tomorrow to my teacher. can someone pleas look at it before i hand it in. The grammar and things like that.

"Dear Sir,

My name is Anders Johansson and I apply for the job as an extra in your new movie. I’m 17 years old, 5.7 feet high and weight about 161 pounds. I got brown hair, brown eyes and three birthmarks on stomach.
I like fishing and hunting so I’m pretty used to the wilderness. I can light a fire without any matches and make a shelter out of a spruce and things like that.
Unfortunately I’ve got no acting experience at all except for some small stage plays in school when I was younger and some home produced movies. My mother tongue is Swedish but I talk good English and some German.
I think I’m suitable for this job because I’m a natural out on the country and not afraid of challenges.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

Sincerely yours,

Anders Johansson"

Sorry, Anders-- it is better for us not to do outright homework. It gives your teacher a false impression of your abilities. Your teacher will be happy to help you improve your writing.
