I am very interested in foreign educational programmes and I would like to take a part in one of them.
I suppose that the one-year educational programme in a private school is the most convenient thing for me so I would like to effect an application for this programme.
I hope my level of English language will allow me to join the programme as I am fond of the history of your country, its traditions and social life. I appreciate greatly the chance to visit your country and plunge in the target language environment.
Moreover it will be good experience for my future profession.
Your early reply will be very much appreciated.
Best regards,
Sokolova Maria
Уважаемый сэр или мадам,
Я крайне заинтересован в зарубежных образовательных программах и мне бы хотелось принять участие в одной из них.
Я полагаю, что годичное обучение в частной школе подойдет мне больше всего, поэтому я хотел бы подать заявку на участие в этой программе.
Надеюсь, что мой уровень английского позволит мне присоединиться к программе, потому что я чрезвычайно увлечен историей Вашей страны, ее традициями и общественной жизнью. Я высоко ценю возможность посетить Вашу страну и погрузиться в среду изучаемого языка.
Более того, это будет хорошим опытом для моей будущей профессии.
Надеюсь на Ваш скорый ответ.
С уважением,
Соколова Мария
