Dear Sir/Madam, I would like to apply for a Music Teaching position or any other related administration and management post in an Australian organisation. This opportunity holds great interest for me as I would like to continue pursuing my career in music teaching after I migrate to Australia. I am confident that this opportunity will provide me with valuable Australian practical experience, industry exposure and the network of contacts I need to realise my goals for a future in this area. I have sought to maximise my opportunities in Australia with my past administration, management and teaching experience in my home country. My participation in many orchestral performances has provided the means for me to meet with key industry standards and build on my teaching skills. I have also enjoyed being able to operate two outlets of music school in my home country and mentored young teachers within the school. This working experience in your music school will provide me with a competitive edge when I embark on my career in the music teaching industry in Australia. I hope that my record of achievements in the past will reflect my value to the teaching team in your music school. Please contact me at the email above to discuss my application further. I look forward to meeting with you. Yours faithfully, Yew Chee, Chew Encl. Resume
