What is a cover letter?

It's a letter that you send to an employer when you want to apply for a job. You need to send your CV, but this only tells them a summary of your skills and experience. The cover letter is more personalised, and should explain your current situation, why you are applying for the job and why you are the right person for it.

In High Intermediate 3 we have been doing lots of work on CV's and jobs. Read some great examples of cover letters from our class here, and then add your own in a new post if you want to!

 We all know that studying can be tough. In the higher intermediate class, we have been finding out about different learning styles, and how we learn. In this section of the blog, you can share your experience of a time that you have learned something, and how you did it. This could really help other students to do the same.
