Email Message to Kathryn Simone

Hi Kathryn,

Nice to meet you! I am one of your classmates in ENGL 301 in Summer 2020. After reading your application letter, I am impressed with your determination to hone up your technical writing skills. I am writing to invite you to join my professional writing team.

Your technical and practical understanding from your previous degree and work experience have stood you out from the other candidates. I share the same concern with you in terms of writing style. I hope that through this course, I am able to improve my conciseness in diction where readers understand my key message, while you wish to develop strategies to improve writing and communication ability in this course. I believe that your analytical skills would allow you to provide technical and reasonable feedback to brush up our team’s overall performance.

Attached please find my application letter. Please kindly reply to this email to let me know your decision upon reading the letter. I am very excited to be in a team with you. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Kind Regards,
Alison

Email Message to Jie Su

Hi Jie,

Nice to meet you! I am one of your classmates in ENGL 301 in Summer 2020. I am a fourth-year student studying International Economics at UBC. After reading your application letter, I am impressed with your ability in your past working experience as well as your learning attitude. I am writing to invite you to be a member of my professional writing team.

I like the way you take your study seriously. This really speaks out to me as I also have a sense of responsibility in my study and work. Your generosity in helping your classmates to solve blog-related problems on the CHAT page stands you out from a lot of other candidates. From my previous co-op placement, while my performance in a result-driven environment is evaluated, the team’s feedback and support are also essential to my output. I believe you are one of the few candidates that will provide useful suggestions based on your rich experience from your previous workplace and coursework at UBC.

Please see attached application letter. Please kindly let me know your decision after reading the letter. I am very excited to be in a team with you. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Kind Regards,
Alison

Email Message to Sydney Storie

Hi Sydney,

 

Nice to meet you! I am one of your classmates in ENGL 301 this Summer. After reading your application letter, I am writing to invite you to join my professional writing team. Your international exposure in twenty-six countries and your professional and ethical communication skills from your previous work experience stand you out from other students.

 

I am most impressed with your exposure to global experience in Canada and Australia while maintaining a professional and dedicated attitude to your study. I think this is important for self-discipline. I personally take pride in my time management, so I think we both have the same discipline for managing our work properly.

 

I am also impressed with your language ability. You mentioned that you could speak fluent English, Portuguese and intermediate Spanish. I think your exposure to different languages would make you more familiar with the respective language structure, which helps to build your sensitivity to different writing contexts and diction.  Your exceptional ability would be able to give concrete and useful advice to our team for improvement in technical writing.

 

Please see attached application letter. Please kindly let me know your decision after reading the letter. I am very excited to be in a team with you. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

 

Kind Regards,

Alison
