Dear teacher Megan,

Thank you so much for this email. 

I am a student in the modern languages program at Universidad de Caldas

in Colombia, I am currently in the seventh semester of my program, I have
taken several courses in the program. Phonetics in english and french
linguistics in spanish and some pedagogy courses. 

I am an active person and I like interacting with other people, I think I am

the right person for the job. I would like to teach Spanish, because I
taught Spanish to students from Japan, they lived here in Manizales for
one year, I will do my best

I look forward to your soon reply. 

Cheers,

Pedro Arias
