madona — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 16:27:47 GMT

Hi everybody,

I found this forum few days ago. I think, it is so helpful and valuable for everyone.

I try to get through into Y.. University. I need your help to check my motivation letter such as grammar, structure, errors and etc.

I really appreciate your comment, ideas and opinions.
My due date for sending my application form, resume and motivation letter is October 15,2008.

Please help me.Thank you very much in advance to everybody who wants to "give me a hand".

Dear Madam or Sir,

The process of supply and demand is on-going and, as such requires organizations to both adapt and innovate. Organizations should meet the challenge of modern technology and, at times, challenge it themselves. They must also be able to exploit opportunities to create or maintain a good position in the financial market. In short, the banks and big corporations need high quality of financial service where the focus is on the internal and external stock market environment.

I have a passion to work with financial transactions, stock market and investment funds, so I would like to apply for the Bachelor's degree of Administrative studies, track Finance or Accounting into Faculty of .. at Y.. University which starts January 2009.

I graduated with Master's degree of Law from University of Moscow in 2000. My studies have given me a solid foundation in six fundamental fields: Macroeconomics, Microeconomics, Banks' Law, Financial Law and Corporate Law. Since finishing my studies I have been working as a Legal Advisor at Y company.

I want to pursue an international caree in economics, specializing in Finance or Accounting field. My goal is to work as an analyst for one of the top investment banks or hedge funds, or as a Financial Advisor for a private trust in any world financial centre. To achieve this, I need to complete my academic background and to take a Bachelor's degree in Finance or Accounting at Y..University which offers an outstanding education and has a superior reputation.

To be successful and achieve high standarts in the financial world, I need to obtain an extensive practical and theoretical knowledge in investment analysis, corporate finance, banking, and financial microstructure. I need to widen and deepen my understanding of quantitative techniques and financial behaviour. I am also eager to learn more about international financial systems and stock market investment funds. I understand that Finance and Accounting are very popular and competitive industry and it is rather challenging to achieve a professional career. I am however open-minded and prepared to meet all challenges presented to me. I am convinced that Bachelor's degree of Finance or Accounting will give me an opportunity to build a successful career and become a true professional, contributing value to my future companies.

I enclose my resume. Please feel free to contact me if you require any further details or documents. I hope to hear from you in the near future.

Yours faithfully,

grammar in covering letter

Anonymous — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 14:01:58 GMT

Hi all, could you help me with grammar in my covering letter? I know that first paragraph is fine so I would like to ask you to check the middle part which is below.

Recently, I decided to increase my knowledge of payroll and become familiar with current payroll legislation. As you will see from my CV, I am expecting the results of my exam and certificate from Pitman Training. During the course I learned how to calculate gross/net pay, holiday payments and deductions, national insurance contributions, all statutory payments. I am confident with processing monthly and weekly payroll including general data input, starters, leavers, processing P45, P46, P11, P11D, P60 forms, issuing electronic timesheets, pay reviews and reports, checking and inputting tax code changes. I am familiar with manual as well as with computerised payroll (Sage Payroll). I hope you will agree that this is a sound background for an entry level Payroll Clerk.

I have enclosed my CV for your review. Please call me at the contact number given so that we can discuss how my qualification can be of benefit to your company. I look forward to hearing from you and am available for interview at your convenience.

Thank you for considering my application.

Yours faithfully,
AA

Re: Correct use of "... of yours"

Anonymous — Fri, 16 May 2008 15:39:28 GMT

"Yours" means "belonging to you" and thus both of the examples you quote is correct, although the latter "this watch of yours" is more colloquial and would be regarded by some as poor English, even though it is widely used. The word may also be used in letter as in "Yours faithfully". It should never be written "your's" !! Also look our for the difference between "your" and "you're" - incorrect use of these words is a very common event in English. Remember "your" means "belonging to you" whereas "you're" means "you are".

Letter of Recommendation

Anonymous — Wed, 07 May 2008 11:27:16 GMT

Hello!

I have to write a Letter of Recommendation for one of my students. He will study only one semester at an University in New Zealand.

I'm not really safe in english grammar..so, if someone please review my first attempt:

Dear Madam or Sir,
I am writing this letter to recommend [NAME] for admission to your Study Abroad Program.

I have known Mr. [NAME] for two years as a student of [PROGRAM] at the University of [CITY], [COUNTRY], and he has always shown a strong interest in our program. Personally, I taught him Project Management and Introduction to ERP-Systems and this gave me the chance to gain insight into his abilities and traits.

He is an ambitious student and has improved his skills steadily. I can attest that his performance has been consistently good and he has always shown a responsible behavior. Also, he is systematic and organized at work and has shown a predilection for applied economics.

As for his personal qualities, Mr. [NAME] is a well disciplined, industrious student with a pleasant personality. He has always been a very open and respectful student who demonstrates a great capacity for integration into university life.

For all these reasons, I highly recommend this candidate to you. Furthermore, I believe that your program will provide him with valuable experience, helping him to improve his English level, and deepen his understanding of foreign cultures and values.

Should you need further information, please feel free to contact me at the address above.

Yours faithfully,

error checking!

Hello to everybody,

I find this site very helpful and I used some tips and coments on other posts before writing my own motivation letter to university.

I'm not native english speaker, so can I ask your help in correcting this letter (words, grammar) or if something isn't really convenient to write, please comment.

Thank you in advance,

Here is letter:

Dear Sir/Madam,

I would like to express my interest for admission to a master program Cultural Economics and Cultural Entrepreneurship within *** university.

I have completed four years of undergraduate studies in Tourism and Hospitality management and after graduating I was certain that I want to undertake a postgraduate study. During studies I became very interested in the culture and its affect to tourism and sustainable development of economics. My graduation paper was related to renovation of cultural architectural objects and its impact for surrounding territory and economics where I reviewed the problem of cultural heritage in ***country and came to conclusion that culture can create the balance between material world and society. (for me it seems unfinished here, but I was not able to make a "bridge")

Regarding my career aspirations working in cultural industries and becoming a manager of cultural organization I want to obtain Master's degree in cultural entrepreneurship. This knowledge will allow me to understand specific management principles what is needed in creative industries and I will be able to fully realize my professional goals.

I am confident that I have the necessary combination of self-motivation, background, personality and academic knowledge to succeed in the Masterâs degree program. I hope that my experience at Erasmus University will equip me to manage my future well and also prepare me to make significant contributions to the development of my country.

Should I write some "looking forward... " -like sentence at the end?

Yours faithfully,

Name Surname

Grammar of a letter

Anonymous — Sun, 20 Apr 2008 21:54:12 GMT

Hello,

I'm a guy from Sweden and right nowÂ I'm writing a letter to a university in the USA.

Since it's a very important letter I want it to be perfect.

I'd really appreciate it if someone here could have a look at it and give me any hints on changes or anything!

Â
Â

Dear Sir or Madam,

Ever since my high school graduation I've been filled with hope of waking up being happy to go to work. I personally don't think that's a utopia but without higher education and previous work experiences it's easier said than done to get that golden opportunity.

As I see it, too many people have jobs they dislike. I don't want to spend my life that way and that's why I'm writing this letter. I've been looking feverishly for an inspiring and developing education for a time now. After reading a lot of reviews and personal statements, Academy of Art University appeared to have the most interesting educations.

Design and advertising has always fascinated me. I'd even like to say it's a life style. I do possess the motivation and creativity, so I dearly hope I'll get the chance to develop myself in the world of design at Academy of Art University.

I wish I'll get the opportunity to meet you personally this fall!

Would be a dream come true.

Yours faithfully,
Michael Carlberg.Â

Thanks for taking time!

We ~~are~~ feel so sorry for this short notice. Because we ~~are keep to checking with the factory~~ are to watch over implementation of agreement and to make sure that 800pcs ABC *** ~~have~~ had been received it according subcontract until to 18:00 yesterday. Therefore, the ~~booking~~ order is so rush (rush is a noun but according your sentence the Adjective should be), but we ~~are~~ appreciate ~~for~~ your help and will try to make the ~~booking~~ order to you at the earlier time in further arrangement

It's another way to express your thoughts.

We feel very sorry for this short notice. Because we are to watch over implementation of agreement and to make sure that 800pcs ABC *** to have been received according subcontract until 18:00 yesterday. Therefore, the order is so sudden, so that we appreciate your help and make every effort to conform all conditions with our future arrangement.

So, I would wish you to learn English Grammar, starting from the first.

Yours Faithfully, Fandorin
