Resume of language proficiency
XX. XX, 2006
Dear Sir or Madam,
I started to learn the English language 21 years ago when I entered secondary school. I have also had the experience of studying in England for 2 years and have much working experience using the language. Enclosed you will find documents and recommendation letters, which provides evidence of how efficient my English is.
English wasmy favorite subject and gave me a lot of confidence and this enabled me toachieve high marks. This inspired me to choose English as my major when I entered XXXX Institute of XXXX XXXX. I studied very hard and received an honorary scholarship every semester for my academic achievements, and was ranked as one of the top students when I graduated in XXXX.
Instead of presenting an IELTS result, I took part in a language test arranged by the university language center of University XXXXXX. I received a high mark 82% which I was informedby the examiner was equivalent to 7.0 in IELTS. This result enabled me to acquire an unconditional offer from the university.
I also worked for an import and export company as a tradesperson and later became a secondary school teacher teaching English as a second language. All of the above mentioned involved skills such as listening, speaking, reading and writing.
During my stay in England I tried every means to improve my English to a higher degree.
Listening: Listen to the radio and watch English television everyday.
Speaking: Participate verbally during lectures, communicate with local people and have made many English friends.
Reading: Academic reading, leisure reading of newspaper, magazines, etc, and Bible reading.
Writing: Academic writing with assignments and dissertation, emails in English with friends both English and Chinese.
I am confident that my English should fall in the high proficiency category which means that I am entitled to receive 16 points in language ability.
Yours sincerely,
XXXXX
