Letter correction

Dear Ms X, 
Each morning, over the paste six years, I have been happy to see my students walk through the classroom door. It feels so natural to me to be a primary school teacher. However for the past few months I have been longing for and thinking about a new personal challenge in the field of primary education. As I am very much intrigued by different cultures and languages, I have decided look for a position at an international school.
Your school attracted my attention because it is a relatively young school, where I could be part of a pioneering and ambitious team. I also like the fact it is a Dutch subsidised school with competitive fees, open to a variety of students. Furthermore, I value the experience of living in Amsterdam, and I appreciate how your school uses the multicultural atmosphere of the city into the school. I really think this city, and also the Dutch culture have much to offer.
Initially I am interested in teaching groups 3-8. To me, children of these ages are still very spontaneous, eager to learn and able to communicate and discuss well. In view of my university education, teaching in a secondary school might be a future job possibility to me. 
I am an open minded person, I have good social and handle pressure easily. Group management, organising and planning is natural to me. I graduated from an outstanding technical university and worked for several years as a consulting engineer and groupleader in the field of logistics and general management. This is how I developed my rational, analytical and coordinating skills. Then I decided to follow my heart and passion and become a primary school teacher.
I believe I would add value to your organisation with my skills and enthusiasm. I would appreciate the opportunity to be interviewed, so we can discuss more about the job and the possibility of working together. 
Yours sincerely,
Candidate Y
