Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to express my interest in applying for a teaching position within the realm of business in travel, tourism, and hospitality. I have successfully completed my studies in tourism management, having achieved high academic honours.
Furthermore, I possess valuable experience as a part-time tutor within this industry, allowing me to effectively impart knowledge to students. In addition, I have gained four years of practical experience working within both the hospitality and travel sectors, affording me a well-rounded perspective on the industry dynamics and requirements.
I am deeply passionate about the field of education, particularly in mentoring university students with their assignments on a regular basis. Through my guidance and support, these students consistently excel in their academic pursuits. A key motivation for me is the opportunity to impart my knowledge and expertise to others, while also earning a livelihood from this meaningful work.
I am prepared to welcome my initial group of students at any given moment. I am grateful for your consideration in reviewing my application.
Yours sincerely
Segopotso Dintwa
