&lt;P&gt;It was &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;unimaginable&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;[wrong word]&lt;/FONT&gt; when I received &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;the first&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt; [the first in your country, university or course?&amp;nbsp; Or &lt;EM&gt;your&lt;/EM&gt; first?]&lt;/FONT&gt; foreign scholarship for my Bachelor of Science in &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;Computing [or&amp;nbsp;Computer Science]&lt;/FONT&gt;&amp;nbsp;(B.Sc).The thing that I &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;has&lt;/FONT&gt; really &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;dignified&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt; [wrong word]&lt;/FONT&gt; and kept in mind is studying abroad always brings students much &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493" color=#000000&gt;value&lt;/FONT&gt; [benefit]. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;got&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;first became&lt;/FONT&gt; familiar&amp;nbsp;&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;with [or interested in]&lt;/FONT&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRIKE&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;the&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/STRIKE&gt; computers quite early during my Secondary School in Vietnam&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;, &lt;/FONT&gt;even though IT was not an official subject. I loved and was fascinated&amp;nbsp;&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;by&lt;/FONT&gt;&amp;nbsp;this small machine which exercises both &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493" color=#000000&gt;my &lt;/FONT&gt;creative and &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;our&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;[you need to be consistent in pronoun choice]&lt;/FONT&gt; logical side. My dream was to become a famous IT researcher in the future. I entered Hanoi University of Technology, one of the best &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;u&lt;/FONT&gt;niversities in Vietnam &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;with IT major &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" color=#ff1493&gt;[do you mean that the University offers IT as a major, or that you majored in IT?]&lt;/FONT&gt;, and as my dream &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;[and fulfilling my dream,]&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT color=#000000&gt;,&lt;/FONT&gt; I got &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;the&lt;/FONT&gt; chance to start my B.Sc in September 2002&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;,&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;and earned&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;completing my&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;d&lt;/FONT&gt;egree in September 2006 at President University in Indonesia. &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;[This is a very long and complex sentence - can you break it down into two or more sentences?]&lt;/FONT&gt; Living and studying in an industrial environment during my undergraduate &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;years [or as an undergraduate]&lt;/FONT&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRIKE&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;had&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/STRIKE&gt; helped me develop my personal ability, my skill&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;s&lt;/FONT&gt; and my knowledge of Computer Technology. &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;Equipped &lt;FONT color=#000000&gt;&lt;EM&gt;with&lt;/EM&gt; &lt;/FONT&gt;fundamental theory in the class and through some part time projects, &lt;EM&gt;i&lt;/EM&gt;t empowered my capacity&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff"&gt;&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;[not sure what you mean here.&amp;nbsp; Perhaps, This was backed up with sound theoretical understanding through the taught components of the course.]&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;C&lt;/FONT&gt;lasses that I engaged in include&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;d&lt;/FONT&gt; Internet Programming, Desktop Application Programming and Network Security&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;.&lt;/FONT&gt; I like to work with &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;the&lt;/FONT&gt; Linux environment, especially for firewall protection system. I was a fan of C++ programming language; &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493" color=#000000&gt;it was the reason for me to do successfully my thesis&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" color=#ff1493&gt;[and for this reason I focused my thesis on] &lt;/FONT&gt;âP2P Video Conferencing in the context of Video over IPâ using C++. &lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;My professor Prof. Dr. &lt;B&gt;Muliawati&lt;/B&gt; and my dean Ir. &lt;B&gt;Rila Mandala&lt;/B&gt;, Ph.D &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;have&lt;/FONT&gt; always encourage&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;d&lt;/FONT&gt; me&amp;nbsp;&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;to pursue&lt;/FONT&gt;&amp;nbsp;further study, &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;and to my mind, I always pursue the dream,&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" color=#ff1493&gt; [not sure what you mean.&amp;nbsp; Perhaps, and this is also a long-held ambition of mine.] &lt;/FONT&gt;I wish to earn a Master Degree in Computer Science,&lt;STRIKE&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt; even,&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/STRIKE&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;and in the longer term&lt;/FONT&gt; I intend to follow this up with a Ph.D&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;T&lt;/FONT&gt;herefore I know I must return to the academic world for my family, my research, my dedication to education and&amp;nbsp; further my growth. &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;[This sentence sounds strange in a motivation letter, and it isn't quite clear what you mean.&amp;nbsp; You might want to omit it.]&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;I &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;know my second opportunity came since I heard about Leeds University&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;[not sure what you mean here.&amp;nbsp; Perhaps, I was very interested to hear about the opportunities for further study available at Leeds University] &lt;/FONT&gt;from my classmate who is studying there. I spoke to my professors, my lecturers and my &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;colleges &lt;/FONT&gt;about this opportunity &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;of&lt;/FONT&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;with [or offered by]&lt;/FONT&gt;your University. Leeds University &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;is reputable&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;[has a good/strong reputation]&lt;/FONT&gt; for its research facilities and computing resources. In addition, the information from website &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;also gave me much interest in there &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" color=#ff1493&gt;[??]&lt;/FONT&gt;. I have applied for &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;a&lt;/FONT&gt; scholarship and I believe Leeds University is&amp;nbsp;&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;the&lt;/FONT&gt; right choice for my Master of Computer Science. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Finally, I &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;kindly&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;[wrong word]&lt;/FONT&gt; want &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;to indicate my request&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt; in order to be considered&lt;/FONT&gt; [I would like to be considered] for one of the scholarships &lt;STRIKE&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;that is&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/STRIKE&gt; &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;provided&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;offered&lt;/FONT&gt; by Leeds University. I am very ambitious to pursue a career of academic research&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;, &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT color=#ff1493&gt;and&lt;/FONT&gt; &amp;nbsp;I sincerely hope that my personal qualities and educational experience will be sufficient for you to consider me an appropriate &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff1493"&gt;match &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" color=#ff1493&gt;candidate&lt;/FONT&gt;. If there is any possibility of arranging an interview, I would appreciate hearing from you. &lt;/P&gt;

I couldn't begin to say whether that is better than a traditional letter or not a good idea. So, if you want to go with this more creative style (and I'm not saying you are wrong) here are my comments.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Check your spelling - ou have one or two typos.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Memories OF England.&amp;nbsp; We don't have football every weekend (it is seasonal),&amp;nbsp; overwhelming is an odd word to describe cafes, nice weather might give them a bit of a laugh as it is our national sport to complain about our weather! Hand-tame squirrels perhaps?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;You don't visit courses, you take part in them. English is a proper noun so always has a capital letter. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Your alternative quote seems more relevant.&lt;/P&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Can someone help me to write my motivation letter? (A Spanish in trouble..)</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/SomeoneWriteMotivationLetterSpanish-Trouble/ccjhm/post.htm#179600</link><pubDate>Fri, 06 Jan 2006 07:14:06 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="true">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:179600</guid><dc:creator>Nef</dc:creator><description>&lt;P&gt;Hello,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Here are&amp;nbsp;a few&amp;nbsp;ideas. I am being fairly picky (critical) because you asked for comments. I understood most of your letter very well. Good luck with your application!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;---------------------&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Dear &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"&gt;Sirs&lt;/FONT&gt;, (&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" color=#0000ff&gt;If you are sure that &lt;U&gt;only&lt;/U&gt; &lt;U&gt;men&lt;/U&gt; will read your letter, this is fine. If it is possible that either &lt;U&gt;men or women&lt;/U&gt; will read your letter, I think it is better to say Dear Sir/Ma'am, Dear Sir or Madam, or To Whom it May Concern. If you can find out the name or job title of the person who will read your letter, you might use that&amp;nbsp;as a form of address.)&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;As you know I'm recently graduated in Chemical Engineering. &lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;(I'm wondering if you are sure the reader will know this.) Also, you might want to say "I'm a recent graduate in Chemical Engineering." or "I'm a recent graduate who majored in Chemical Engineering."&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;At this point, &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"&gt;I find very important the election&lt;/FONT&gt; of the first &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"&gt;significative&lt;/FONT&gt; job, because it can determine the future development of my professional career. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;At this point, I find the choice of my first &lt;EM&gt;significant&lt;/EM&gt; job &lt;EM&gt;very important&lt;/EM&gt;, because it can determine the future development of my professional career. &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT color=#000000&gt;(I'm changing the&amp;nbsp;placement of the "very important" and using "significant" rater than "significative,"&amp;nbsp;which is not a common word.)&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;It's very easy to explain why I want to work in a brewery:&lt;U&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"&gt; in one hand&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/U&gt;, it &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"&gt;fit&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;EM&gt;fits&lt;/EM&gt; &lt;/FONT&gt;my technical &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"&gt;expectatives&lt;/FONT&gt;. &lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;&lt;EM&gt;e&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;&lt;EM&gt;xpectations&lt;/EM&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;(1. I am not sure&amp;nbsp;what "in one hand" means here.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;2. "It &lt;EM&gt;fits&lt;/EM&gt;" is because "it" is third person singular. (I fit, you fit, he/she/it fits...&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;3. "Expectations" is a common word; "expectatives" may not be a word at all.)&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;As &lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff0000"&gt;an&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;(you need "an" here) &lt;/FONT&gt;engineer, the beer industry is a very complete sector where I can learn and share with you my recent knowledge, acquired in all those years, in the &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"&gt;last&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff"&gt; &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;&lt;EM&gt;latest&lt;/EM&gt; &lt;/FONT&gt;technologies of water and solids treatment, fermentation processes, refrigeration systems, gas &lt;U&gt;recuperation&lt;/U&gt;... or, related with the management aspects, such as production and distribution control, supply chain, environmental and health implications&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff0000"&gt;,&lt;/FONT&gt; as well as the economics of the operation, etc.. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;I am not sure if "recuperation" is the right word &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" color=#0000ff&gt;here.&lt;/FONT&gt; "Recuperation" usually refers to recovery from an illness (regaining good health after a disease). Would&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;"recovery," a more general term which might refer to regaining or gathering something, work better?&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;Also, this is a very long sentence.&amp;nbsp; I'd start a new sentence to discuss the management aspects.&amp;nbsp; For instance, something like: "A job in this industry also would provide me with an excellent opportunity to apply and increase my knowledge of management aspects such as...")&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"&gt;On the other,&lt;/FONT&gt; (&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;OK, now I see what the&amp;nbsp;first hand was for!&amp;nbsp; &lt;img src="/emoticons/emotion-1.gif" alt="Smile [:)]" /&gt; But your hands are so far apart here, are separated by so many words, that the&amp;nbsp;connection between the two hands&amp;nbsp;gets dropped. I'd suggest not mentioning the first hand at all. If you want to, for the second hand,&amp;nbsp;try saying:&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;On the other hand, &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;it's pretty hard to explain my personal desire in working in a "life" industry like this.&amp;nbsp;As an &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00" color=#000000&gt;enthusiastic &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" color=#0000ff&gt;&lt;EM&gt;enthusiast &lt;/EM&gt;("enthusiast" is a noun, "enthusiastic" is an adjective; you could say as an enthusiastic ______, )&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;If you wanted a shorter sentence, you&amp;nbsp;could say "As a beer and wine enthusiast (in the good sense), I've participated..."&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;of the culture of &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00" color=#000000&gt;the&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" color=#0000ff&gt;(you don't need, and shouldn't have, this "the") &lt;/FONT&gt;beer and wine (in the good sense...), Iâve participated in the &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"&gt;recollection&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;(I'm not sure of the meaning here. Is it possible that you are talking about a harvest?) &lt;/FONT&gt;campaign of the last seasons in one of the most important wine &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00" color=#000000&gt;shires&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" color=#0000ff&gt; (This is the right word for English English; if you want American English, say "counties" instead of "shires")&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;of my country and I would like to work in the &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff"&gt;production&lt;/FONT&gt; area &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"&gt;or any similar&lt;FONT color=#000000&gt; like&lt;/FONT&gt; engineer&lt;/FONT&gt;. &lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;or in a related area as an engineer.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Furthermore&lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt;,&lt;/FONT&gt; I have always had a strong desire to work in an international environment. &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00" color=#000000&gt;Youâre&lt;/FONT&gt; one of the most important beer &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"&gt;productor all over&lt;/FONT&gt; the world and I find this &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"&gt;as&lt;/FONT&gt; an unique opportunity. &lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;Your company is one of the most important beer producers in the world, and I think this is a unique opportunity.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I would describe myself as an active, mature, curious, hands-on and flexible person. Iâm willing to work on new &lt;BR&gt;projects with new colleagues and to increase and share my &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00"&gt;knowledgement&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff"&gt; &lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;&lt;EM&gt;knowledge&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;. Iâm &lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00" color=#000000&gt;an enduring&lt;/FONT&gt; &lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;&lt;EM&gt;a loyal&lt;/EM&gt; &lt;/FONT&gt;team player but Iâm willing to accept responsibility.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;I would be pleased if my application wakes your interest. I enclose my CV for your consideration. Please do not &lt;BR&gt;hesitate to contact me if you require any further details.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Yours faithfully,&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Motivation letter</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/MotivationLetter/bzkwr/post.htm#111112</link><pubDate>Tue, 21 Jun 2005 07:11:04 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="true">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:111112</guid><dc:creator>Mister Micawber</dc:creator><description>&lt;br /&gt;Hello Bensou, and welcome to English Forums.
