Sir / Madam, I read with great delight the profile of the Masters Degree in International Relations and Diplomacy as offered by your University-The University of Shanghai-CHINA. I am quite interested in the programs that touch on the Humanities and global concerns like that, reason why I am applying and longing for a position to come and study in your institution. I am a holder of a Bachelor of Arts ( B.A) Degree (Second Class Honours Lower Division) in ENGLISH and a Minor in LINGUISTICS all from the UNIVERSITY OF BUEA here in the Republic of Cameroon. Presently, I am a teacher of English Language and Literature in English at Baptist High School-Buea, a mission college owned and managed by the EDUCATION BOARD Of The CAMEROON BAPTIST CONVENTION. Sir / Madam, I am strongly passionate about the many issues of concern that are affecting humanity in various parts of the World, and always longing to one day earn that necessary training which can qualify me to also get to be a part of the solution. It is with this Motivation that I so much long to continue my studies in this area of International Relations and Diplomacy as offered by your prestigious University . As a teacher of English, I have always cherished using polite language in normal social interactions, problem solving and conflict resolutions. In addition, all through my academic life to this point in time, I have always looked up to China and believed in China as an Excellent International Academic Destination. I say this with an inner joy because China, some years back had trained my elder sister who is today serving our country, Cameroon as a Medical Doctor par excellence. It is in this light that I also fervently believe that your University can as well nurture this my passion for International Relations and Diplomacy and make of me an excellent diplomat, too. Thank you sincerely, Nganji Derek NDI
