. Please help me! and help me to correct this one. Any hints are appreciated

Dear Mr. XXX,
my name is Alessandro Fabio XX, and I am writing you to answer to your ANNOUNCEMENT published on SITE with code CODE. I am a Computer Engineering student at Università degli Studi di Palermo, Italy, and I expect to graduate within 18 month.
NELL'AMBITO of “Erasmus Placement” program, I would like to serve an internship of a lenght of about 3-6 months in your company, preferably after February 2009. For this reason I attached a copy of my Curriculum Vitae to this letter.
The idea makes me enthusiatic because I am a dynamic person, active, open-minded to new experiences, enterprising. I have got many skills in team working, and a strong motivation to start this experience.
At the same time with the university, I already did some stage, got some work and attended training courses. In the 2007 I ended the “Cisco Networking” course, which gave me the skills to do the CCNA certification exam; I have been an intern for CRES (a research centre) where I learned how to build mixed networks Linux – Windows and for Software Research where I learned to build Internet websites; I realized also some private works e.g. rosaneronline.it.
Intending to grow my personal culture I attend also piano lessons at the School Music of Palermo, and two years ago I have been living in the USA.
So, I decided to propose myself as an intern to increase and to broaden my knowledge into SUBJECT.
Sincerely,
Alessandro Fabio XX
