Lettre/ fille au pair
Message de pika posté le 11-04-2012 à 16:52:16 (S | E | F)
Salut à tous ! Bonjour,

Je suis nouvelle sur le site, et j'avoue qu'il m'aide beaucoup
Je me permets de poster ce sujet car j'ai vu que d'autres l'avaient fait avant moi : il s'agirait de m'aider à corriger ma lettre de présentation de jeune fille au pair pour cet été !
Comme je ne savais pas où poster ce sujet, j'ai choisi ce forum. Si vous estimez qu'il n'a pas sa place ici, merci de me rediriger vers le bon topic ^^

Dear family,

My name is Priscilla. I almost 23 years old. I was born in the south of France, the Twenty-sixth of July 1989, just next to the Mediterranean Sea.
My father’s name is Jxxx, he is mason. My mother’s name is Mxxx, she is town clerk. I’m an only child.
In June 2007, I passed my “Baccalauréat Littéraire” (Equivalent British A-levels, with literary specialty), and I was also in the Art section. Then, I went to Mxxx for my studies. After 3 years over there, I obtained my School Diploma of Product Designer: I create some new objects of daily life (furniture, glasses, decorative objects, etc.). Now, I live in Nxxx, and I come back/return to school in September 2012 in an International class of Product Design. So, I have to improve my English and I chose to do this “au pair” program for several reasons.

Indeed, ever since I was teenager, I decided one day I would go in other countries for know other things and other cultures. I love travelling and meeting people from different cultures. Being a curious person, I developed a passion for new experiences. I visit my friends or I travel with them: Montpellier, Strasbourg, Lyon, Paris, Nice, Bordeaux, Brittany, Barcelona. Now it’s time to go to England! I love the United Kingdom and this language. I want to discover your culture and your landscapes, your double-deckers and your sights, your cooking and more other things!
On the other hand, I love children. Being an only child, I always wanted have any brothers or sisters.
Last year, I have passed 4 month with the family of my boyfriend. It’s a great family with 6 children. I took care of her two youngest children: Lxxx, 4 years old and Mxxx, 10 years old. We did many funny activities all three: when the weather was beautiful we played ball, hide-and-seek, games in our swimming pool or went for a walk. On the contrary, when it was cold, we played board games, Wii, drawing and painting or we (got?) disguised. It’s easy for me to do art activities because it’s my first vocation/metier. Or else, for the most serious activities (=des activités plus sérieuses dans le sens que ce n’est pas seulement de l’amusement), I took Maëlle to school or to sport, I helped her to do this homework. With the youngest, we played educational games and reading. I also made him take bath and put him into bed. Moreover, I helped his mother to do household chores (vacuuming, washing the dishes, do cooking, laundry, cleaning up, etc.)
At the present time, I take care of Exxx, a baby 21 month old: we play modelling clay, we draw, we go to the sandpit or we go for a walk. Also I deal with her hygiene and her meal.

I’m an energetic person. I practise several activities like sport (I’m part of a volley-ball club), drawing and sew, singing, music and go out with my friends. I’m very sociable, I love laugh and do laugh others. This/it makes me very happy.
I have got some experiences in work: I worked for Mac Donald’s or check-out assistant for pay my studies and I already work for different enterprises in free-lance as designer.
I’m independent: as I live in my own apartment, I do/well know the household chores and the problems of daily life. Therefore, I shall respond to unforeseen.

I’m really motivated to work as an au pair girl and sincerely wish to become a member of your familu for a time. I promise to do my best to ensure that everything goes well.

I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon,

Sincerely yours,

Pxxxx

Je vous remercie par avance pour votre aide !
A bientôt j'espère.

Bonsoir,

Dear family,

My name is Priscilla. I almost 23 years old. I was born in the south of France, on the Twenty-sixth of July 1989, just next to the Mediterranean Sea.
My father’s name is Jxxx, he is ("a" devant les noms de métier)* mason. My mother’s name is Mxxx, she is(idem) * town clerk. I’m an only child.

So, I have to improve my English and I chose to do this “au pair” program for several reasons.

Indeed, ever since I was a teenager, I * (present perfect avec since)decided one day I would go in(déplacement, donc to) other countries for (pour + verbe!!)know other things and other cultures. I love travelling and meeting people from different cultures. Being a curious person, I developed a passion for new experiences. I visit my friends or I travel with them: Montpellier, Strasbourg, Lyon, Paris, Nice, Bordeaux, Brittany, Barcelona. Now it’s time to go to England! I love the United Kingdom and this language. I want to discover your culture and your landscapes, your double-deckers and your sights, your cooking and more(beaucoup) other things!
On the other hand, I love children. Being an only child, I always wanted to have any brothers or sisters.
Last year, I have(prétérit avec une date) passed 4 month(pluriel) with the family of(maladroit! 's!!) my boyfriend. It’s a great(au sens de super ou de grande famille?) family with 6 children.

With the youngest(+ un nom ou un pronom), we played educational games and (ing ne va pas avec we played)reading. I also made him take bath (lui faire prendre son bain? c'est trop mot à mot)and put him into bed. Moreover, I helped his mother to do household chores (vacuuming, washing the dishes, doing the cooking, laundry, cleaning up, etc.)
At the present time, I take care of Exxx, a 21-month-old baby: we play (idem)modelling clay, we draw, we go to the sandpit or we go for a walk. Also I deal with her hygiene and her meals .

I’m an energetic person. I practise several activities like sport (français traduit: je pratique plusieurs activites "comme" sport)(I’m part of a volley-ball club), (cet ing se raccroche à quel verbe, vous alternez ing et infinitifs....)drawing and sew, singing, music and go out with my friends. I’m very sociable, I love(+ ing!!) laugh and do laugh others. This/it makes me very happy.
I have got some experiences in work (mal dit): I worked for Mac Donald’s or check-out assistant for pay my studies (pour + verbe? le verbe est "to pay for")and I *** already work** (present perfect) for different enterprises in free-lance as a designer.

Merci beaucoup!

Je me permets de faire suivre ma correction. J'ai repris l'anglais il  y a seulement un mois, déjà que je n'étais pas spécialement forte, je suis contente qu'il n'y ait pas tant de fautes que ça !
Beaucoup de fautes d'inattentions, surtout de temps, des problèmes avec les énumérations et les articles, mais j'y arriverai ! merci pour les petits commentaires, c'est noté

En rouge : mes corrections

On the other hand, I love children. Being an only child, I always wanted to have any brothers or sisters.
Last year, I spent/had passed 4 months with my boyfriend's family. It's a (large= pas nécessaire?) family of 6 children and I took care of two youngest children (je n'arrive pas introduire a qui sont ces enfants = des parents ;)... enfin ça coule de source quand meme non ?^^): Lxxx, 4 years old and Mxxx, 10 years old. We did many funny activities the three of us OU the three of us we did many fun activities: when the weather was beautiful we played ball, hide-and-seek, games in our swimming pool (j'ai l'impression qu'il manque des articles ?) or we went for a walk. On the contrary, when it was cold, we played board games, Wii, we paint, we drew or we disguised (= j'ai du mal avec les énumeration !). It's easy for me to do art activities because it's my first vocation/metier.

Moreover, I helped his mother to do household chores (vacuuming, washing the dishes, doing the cooking, laundry, cleaning up, etc.)
At the present time, I take care of Exxx, a 21-month-old baby: we play modelling (=cet ing fait parti de la grammaire du nom) clay (Plasticine), we draw, we go to the sandpit or we go for a walk. Also I deal with her hygiene and her meals.

I'm an energetic person. I practise several activities : sport (I'm part of a volley-ball club), art drawing and (the?) sewing (= "le dessin et la couture"). I like singing, the music and go out with my friends. I'm very sociable, I'm loving laugh and do laugh others. This/it makes me very happy.
I already have got some experiences in the working world: I worked for Mac Donald's or check-out assistant to pay for my studies and I have worked for different enterprises in free-lance as a designer.

I'm independent: as I live in my own apartment, I know the household chores and the problems of daily life well. Therefore, I shall respond to the possible unforeseen. (mal dit: unforeseen est un adjectif sauf si on met un the devant = Je voudrais dire en gros que je saurai faire face aux éventuels imprévus)

I'm really motivated to work as an au pair girl and sincerely wish to become a member of your family for a time (for a while). I promise to do my best to make sure that everything goes well.
I look forward to hearing from you soon,

Encore merci !!

So, I have to improve my English and I chose to do this "au pair" program for several reasons.

Indeed, ever since I was a teenager, I have decided one day I would go to other countries to know other things and other cultures. I love travelling and meeting people from different cultures.

Last year, I spent/had passed 4 months with my boyfriend's family. It's a big family of 6 children and I took care of their two youngest children ,Lxxx, 4 years old and Mxxx, 10 years old. The three of us did many funny activities OU the three of us we did many fun activities: when the weather was beautiful we played ball, hide-and-seek, games in our swimming pool or we went for a walk.

Moreover, I helped his mother to do household chores (vacuuming, washing the dishes, doing the cooking, the laundry, cleaning up, etc.)
At the present time, I take(présent en ing) care of Exxx, a 21-month-old baby: we play clay modelling (on ne "joue" pas au modellisme, we practise clay modelling ) clay (Plasticine), we draw, we go to the sandpit or we go for a walks(pluriel de généralité). Also I deal with her hygiene and her meals.

I'm an energetic person. I practise several activities : sports (I'm part of a volley-ball club), art drawing and (the?) sewing . I like singing, the music and going out with my friends. I'm very sociable, I'm loving (présent simple)laugh and do laugh others.(dans le bon ordre, ça donne: I love laughing and making others laugh) This/it makes me very happy.
I have already got (l'adverbe de fréquence se met entre l'auxiliaire et le verbe lexical) some experiences in the working world: I worked for Mac Donald's or as a check-out assistant to pay for my studies and I have worked for different enterprises(companies,businesses) in free-lance as a designer.

I'm independent: as I live in my own apartment, I know all about household chores and the problems of daily life well. Therefore, I shall(trop pompeux) respond to the possible unforeseen. Therefore, I will be able to cope with any unforeseen problem / I will be able to face any unexpected difficulty.

I'm really motivated to work as an au pair girl and sincerely wish to become a member of your family for a time (for a while). I promise to do my best to make sure that everything goes well.
I look forward to hearing from you soon,
Sincerely yours,
Yours sincerely me vient plus naturellement...

Bonnes corrections de votre part par ailleurs.

Je vous remercie sincèrement de vos corrections. J'avoue que les traductions que vous me proposez sont beaucoup plus faciles, j'ai encore beaucoup de mal à réfléchir à la construction des phrases en anglais et en déduire une simplicité de mots...
En fait, il y avait beaucoup de fautes ! (rire)
Mais grâce à vous, je pourrai sans doute mieux m'exprimer pour une prochaine expression écrite. Les livres, c'est sympa pour apprendre, mais c'est bien plus constructif d'avoir des explications directement sur les problèmes concernés.

Je vous remercie une fois de plus, je vais pouvoir très bientôt envoyer mon dossier
