•Resumes tell the employer about

the specific position for which you are

Baneshwor , Kathmandu
Sub: An Application for the post of “Business
Communication”
Respected Sir/Madam
I am writing to apply for the position of Business
Communication. I am exceedingly interested in
this position at Uniglobe Collage.
I believe that my academic environment and teaching
experience as a lecturer of English literature prepare me
to believe me an instructor in your college .My objectives as a
lecturer is to motivate my students to develop their own
learning interest and critical thinking, establishing a learner
centered environment in the classroom. In particular, teaching
a wide range of course-from Bachelor to Higher secondary
level has made me aware of the needs and interests of a
culturally and ethnically diverse student body. As a result, I
prepare lesson plans always considering the interconnection
between the student’s own knowledge, and learning ability,
the subject matter discussed in class, and current debates on
issues. I choose content and activities which play significant
role to change students, so they feel comfort in learning. I
facilitate students to make them cultured citizens through the
effective teaching.
I believe the clear, open communication with students is
a key element in helping them. I’ve got success to change the
teaching patterns of Morgan International college, and partly
the method of teaching Expanding Horizon’s in English of Bed
second year of Pushpalal Memorial college Kathmandu. I
believe Uniglobe also greatly values the supportive
environment. I look forward to working in a collaborative
learning environment with both faculty and students, where I
can develop interdisciplinary approach.

I’m excited about the opportunity of joining Uniglobe College, and I

am enclosing my curriculum vitae with this cover letter. Thank you for
your consideration, and look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely
