Dear Victoria Ni,
I am writing to you to ask whether it would be possible for you to provide a letter of reference for a mandarine tutor position and Mando Kids Inc. As you know, I worked as a volunteer for CLP’s OP sessions between September 20, 2021, and November 29, 2021, during which time I maintained a perfect attendance record and helped more than 20 students to advance their mandarine speaking skills.
If you would be able to attest to my qualifications for employment and to the skills I attained during my volunteer time at CLP. I would sincerely appreciate it.
I have attached my resume below. I need to have my list of references ready to submit by December 20, 2021. Please let me know if there is any information I can provide regarding my experience to assist you in giving me a reference; I’ve attached my resume for your review. Please do not hesitate to contact me through my personal email.
Thank you for your time and consideration, I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Darius Zhang

Dear Xijiang Fan
I hope you have been well since we last spoke and I hope this pandemic has not been too stressful for you.
I am writing to you to request a letter of reference for a Mandarin tutor position and Mando Kids Inc. Would you be willing to be one of my references? I recall our time working for OP sessions and I thought that given what I’m looking for in that next role, you would be a great colleague to speak to the skills I bring to the table as well as the kind of team player that I am. I would really appreciate it if you could serve as a reference for me.
In return, I am more than happy to do the same for you at any point in time. Please do let me know.
Additionally, I have attached my resume below. If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me through my personal email.
Thank you for your time and consideration, I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Darius Zhang

Having worked with you for the CLP Asian Events, your confirmation of my Chinese speaking and writing skills would be helpful in further persuading the employer for the Mandarin tutor position to consider my application.
