致 楊官大鑒

楊官您好！我時常聽你的節目使我獲益良多。
楊官，我有一件事想向你請教，因為我想寫一封自薦信，有些問題我不明白，請給我一些意見，謝謝！

1.? 我在自薦信的信面註明『董事總經現及行政總』收，我又不想給其他人打開我的信，我可否在信封面上寫上 PRIVATE 字樣？ 這樣寫適合嗎？

2.? 我寫自薦信給不認識的CEO，在最後的一段內容有寫上的意思，下面有兩個選擇，請給我一些意見，謝謝！

a.?? I would like the opportunity to explain my background and??
qualifications to you in a personal interview.? I look forward to??
hearing from you and to having a meeting with you in the near future.

b. Or I will call you next week to determine your interest and to??
arrange an interview time.

3.? 是否附加相片會使他們留下深刻印象或不需要附加相片呢？

YY謹啟

1. 可寫 personal
2. (a) 好些 , 但第二句可改為 - I shall be grateful if you would be kind enough? to grant me an interview in the near future .

我在一間出入口公司工作, 我的英文水準差, 客人來電我只聽但不會講, 客人e mail 來我明白他的內容但回覆我老闆時說我用的是中文英文, 現在我想學好我的 英文有什麼辨法或許介紹一些好的英文書給我閱讀, 有時到書局看不知那書是好文 法.對或不對, 我是不知, 恐怕學壞書, 現請教楊官給我指示

Best Regards
