Dear Sir or Madam,
My name is Li Hua, an 18-year-old girl from Hongxing Middle School. I've learned that our city is planning a Chinese Traditional Art Festival and some English volunteer translators are wanted. I am writing to apply for this position.
First of all, I have a good command of English so I have the confidence that I can communicate with foreign visitors fluently. Besides, I am outgoing and have a great sense of humor, which can always enable me to make my audience excited and attracted. In addition, I used to work as a volunteer in a local museum last summer, during which time I accumulated adequate experience about receiving foreign visitors. All of these can be of great help to my translating job.
All in all, I hope my application will be accepted. I would be very grateful for that. Thank you for your time.
Yours sincerely
Li Hua
