Una Carta -Informal Writing #2

Escribe una carta. Imagina que escribes a la madre de un amigo. Ella trabaja en una carrera que te interesa y te ayudo a conseguir una entrevista para un puesto de verano en el que podrias aprender mucho sobre ese campo. Saluda a ella y:
- dela las gracias por lo que hizo
- cuentale como te fue en la entrevista
- explica que esperas hacer si te dan el puesto
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

¡Hola Señora López!
¿Como esta? Gracias a usted yo estoy muy bien.
La entrevista que me ayudo a conseguir salio muy bien. Aprendí mucho más de lo que posiblemente estaré haciendo este verano. Me dijeron lo que esperan de mi y lo que se necesita para conseguir el trabajo. También me explicaron más del trabajo. Fueron muy amables y yo pienso que me van a dar el trabajo porque usted tiene una buena reputación allí y trabaja bien. Dijeron que yo se mucho del trabajo. Espero que me den el trabajo. Me gusta la idea de empezar temprano en algo que me gusta y talvez si me gusta lo suficiente puede ser mi carrera también.
¡Gracias por todo! ¡Hasta luego!
