My Letter of Intent

Dear Madam Cecilia,

I would like to express my intention to Master of Arts in Education Major in English program which is offered in Mindoro State University.

Currently, I am a degree holder of Bachelor in Education Major in English from John Paul College. Having passed the Licensure Examination for Teacher last September 27, 2015, I want to explore the opportunities to improve myself since I am a novice in this field of profession.

When I was in college, I have predilection with subjects that encompasses literature because I would say I like to read books although I would admit that I am a moderate reader. My favourite genres are books with depth that reflect social issues that are predominantly present at the time the work is written or published. Such examples are contemporary American novels like To Kill A Mocking Bird by Harper Lee that tackles about racism and social injustice of African Americans and Catcher In The Rye by Salinger, J.D ,. Furthermore, I also read a variety of genres that catches my curiosity like young-adult ,e.g The Fault In Our Stars or socio-political novels like Hunger Games Trilogy.

I have developed my interest in graduate studies after I passed my licensure examination. I tried to enter AB literature last summer and I successfully passed the entrance examination, however I was not able to pursue the study because of my inability to withstand the tedious and tiresome three to four hour travel time which I believe could have been affected my performance in the academic participation. So I’ve decided to drop the program.
 But I am not giving up the hope because sometime in the future, when the circumstances are favourable, I will continue this program.

For the meantime, I want to explore the other possibilities available and would also serve as my stepping stone to my goal.  I’ve decided to undergo in this program Master’s of Art Major In English which is also related to my field of profession. I have firm believe that taking this program is beneficial for my career, because I am planning to take International English Language Testing System certification (IELTS) and Teaching English to Speakers of Other Language (TESOL) certification sometime in the future.

Given that I am a neophyte in this field of academe, I do hope I can pursue the program I’ve chosen in Mindoro State University and I intend to finish the program because I genuinely believe that there are no circumstances or condition that will fetter my determination to purse my studies.

Sincerely Yours:
Eren Saturnino
