COVER LETTER

I am writing to apply for the teaching assistant position advertised on the website of the
SOS Children's Villages Foundation. I was especially excited to discover this opportunity,
since your foundation has an excellent reputation in the field of supporting and welcoming
thousands of children, adolescents, and young people who have been separated from their
families of origin, and I am impressed by how they develop capacities for the protection of
families in the upbringing of their sons and daughters.

Some relevant aspects of my career as a professional in the area of guidance and support for
children, adolescents, and young people in their educational, personal and social processes
are:

• In my two years as a counselor at CAP, I have been involved in projects for the
integration and strengthening of family ties.

• I have extensive experience working and guiding processes with children and adolescents,
in handling problems that occur within the family circle.

• I have developed different strategies and projects for the integration of families that have
been separated by different circumstances such as violence and conflicts.

I believe that my references will be able to confirm that I am used to working under
pressure, I make deliveries within the specified time, and I propose different solutions to
daily and long-term problems. I am good at working in a group, accompanying and guiding
others, as well as having good communication and social skills, thus allowing me to
integrate and adapt to different situations.

To conclude, I see myself working long-term in this foundation since it allows me to put
the knowledge and experience acquired at the service of others. I believe that the SOS
Children's Villages Foundation is a space where I can improve my work, develop myself
more, and have more experience in the field, to help more families.

As required, I attach my resume, where you can find information about the different jobs I
have done, and how my process has been in my professional and work life, as well as
copies of my degrees.
I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss my application with you and explore my
suitability for the position you have advertised. Please contact me at your convenience.

Thanks for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Laura Daniela Acevedo Cuervo
