Charlottesville, VA 22903</p><p>March 3, 2008</p><p>Kenneth Lewis Teachers Abroad 101 Alaska St. NW Washington, DC 20007</p><p>Dear Mr. Lewis,</p><p>Thank you so much for your time this past Thursday while at the University of Virginia. I truly enjoyed the opportunity to interview with you. Despite my late start in the job search, I am quite interested in teaching abroad next year. I am very open to location, rural or city. I have enjoyed much international exposure throughout my life, spending three childhood years in Germany, several high-school summers in France, and traveling to various countries throughout Europe during my stay abroad as a college student. Thus, I am very versatile and adjust well to new situations. </p><p>I am highly motivated and very competent in my academic, athletic, and inter- personal skills. I understand the sense of commitment, hard work, sensitivity, and enthusiasm needed to work with children in the school and extra-curricular setting and I believe I would prove a valuable asset. </p><p>Again, I am very grateful for your time and attention. I am sending my resume, and also a letter stating my intentions. My three letters of recommendation are being faxed as soon as possible. I hope you have a great time skiing in Austria and I look forward to perhaps running into you at the airport before boarding for Vienna!</p><p>Sincerely,</p><p>Leah Z. Baynes</p><p>Attachments: Resume, Letter</p>
