Cooperativa de Miguel Grau XXX – Lima, Peru

Dear Sponsor:

My name is XXX; I am a student at Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola. Currently, I am

studying the seventh semester (16th year) of my Business Engineering career and find
myself in the 10th place out of 478 students.

I am writing to express my interest to participate in your work and travel program. I

am very interested in this program because during the last few years I have invested
a significant amount of time in perfecting my leadership skills and improving my
English level. I think this program give an opportunity to increase these skills and
make contact with people around world. Furthermore, I consider this will be an
advantageous experience for my professional and personal life.

During last summer, I worked at Walt Disney Parks and Resorts as a cast member; I
am really thankful for the communication skills I now have, learned to work under
pressure and be more independent. Also, as proof of my organizational skills, I have
been able to teach in several levels and aid students in attaining proficiency in all
English skills at my university.

On a personal level I firmly believe that I have the intellect, skills and talent necessary
to be useful. I am highly motivated and willing to learn as much as possible.
Additionally, I would be honored to represent Peru and share my culture and
traditions. I hope you will consider me for this great opportunity.

Look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best regards,
