Dear An,
I hope this letter finds you well. I recently received a scholarship for study from a university in your country which I worked hard to obtain. The scholarship covers my tuition fee for 2 years but I need to cover my living expenses. I plan to start my studies in Spring of next year and I am in the process of arranging an accommodation and budgeting the living costs.
Fortunately, my older sister lives close to the university so I will stay with her. The university is easily accessible from her place, which is very convenient. However, I am concerned about the high cost of living in the area which is why I am keen to secure a part-time job. I believe gaining work experience during my study is crucial for my personal and professional development.
I would greatly appreciate it if you could provide me some guidance on finding a part-time job. Could you inform me about the availability of various part-time job opportunities in the local community. Additionally do you have any insights on types of part-time work availability and typical working hours. Also, I would like to know if there are any specific qualifications, work experiences or skills that are highly valued by employers for these part-time job positions.
I am eager to hear your suggestions for this matter. Please take care and I look forward to your response.
Best regards.
