Dear Sir/ Madam,
My name is Kelly Xu. I’d like to apply for the position of camp helper.
To begin with, I’m enthusiastic and easy-going. I helped to organize a three-day tour of my city for visiting exchange students. It was successful and they really liked me!

I believe I could conduct classes for visitors to help them learn more about this beautiful aspect of Chinese culture.
All in all, I am keen to extend a warm welcome to them and share with them an unforgettable experience. I kindly look forward to your early reply.
Yours faithfully,
