Letter Writing

a short paragraphed letter

Can anyone help me helping this high school student please? This is a part of (body) letter to the school she is applying for. I broke up the whole letter into two different questions so it's not too long to fix.Thanks.

[part ll]

As I am good with numbers, I would like to work in accounting firm in future. This would require not only good grades from school, but also a balanced development in academic such as moral, physical and artistic qualities. This is what I would like to pursue at your school.

After researching secondary schools in Australia, I found Sydney girls high school very impressive with its history, moral values and school facilities. Being a part of your school will be a good asset to me as it provides all those opportunities to learn various activities and events. Also, living in a different culture is much valuable experience, which will help me become more diverse and multicultural person.

Hi springmeans, I corrected some minor spelling and grammar mistakes in your letter; I also changed some of the wording to make it sound better, as seen below: Because I am good with numbers, I would like to work in an accounting firm in the future. This would require not only good grades from school, but also a balanced development in academics, such as moral, physical and artistic qualities. This is what I would like to pursue at your school.

They can be similar, but in this case I thought it would sound smoother to use because.
Glad to be of help! Wish you success!
