Dear Mrs Wetenhall,

My name is Rafael Sanchez Garcia, I got your details from a friend of mine, who’s children attend Wycombe Abbey, Mr Ron Neumunz.

I am currently working at Cervantes Institute, a prestigious public institution from the Spanish Government that was founded in 1991 to promote the development of Spanish and Latin American language and culture throughout the world.

My wife and I have moved to the Berkshire area in recent years. I have maintained my position in London, but my intention is to find an establishment with high standards of education that I would like to share my expertise with as well as being part of. According to my research, Wycombe Abbey is very much that kind of establishment.

After having completed a First BA Degree in Spanish Language and Literature and several Postgraduate Courses in Linguistics at University of Salamanca, I gained work experience as a teacher of Spanish in charge of teaching, programming, organising and supervising material and structure of courses at beginner, intermediate, advance and proficiency levels and preparation of GSCE, AS and A Levels exams for the Department of Languages, consolidating and enhancing the linguistic competence and cultural and social awareness of the students.

Since 2001, I have been involved in developing a wide range of academic projects, including design and preparation of syllabus, portfolio and exams, creation of teaching materials and piloting of new manuals, as well as creating and developing E-Learning, Business Spanish and preparation for DELE Diploma courses.

In my present role as a Teacher of Spanish for Cervantes Institute, I have had many achievements, including researching, designing and delivering Spanish Language materials and exams based on Spanish and Latin American political, social and economic current affairs, tutoring trainees for the Roehampton University and Cervantes Institute Communicative Method Program, and creating and developing online resources and one to one tailored exercises to enhance students learning process. I would relish the opportunity to bring this level of success to your school.

Having worked within the education industry for over twenty years, I have developed a wide range of skills that would meet, and exceed the expectations for the role.

If you would like to get in touch to discuss my application and to arrange an interview, I am available on the above address and phone numbers. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further information.

I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.

Yours sincerely

Rafael Sanchez Garcia
