Applying for a job, dont want to look like an ass.

Im originally from Germany - and im currently applying for a job in which the main Focus is on english - but chinese would be a benefit.

Therefore Id like to add a small paragraph of chinese at the bottom of my letter of Motivation - and it would be terrible if its wrong.

Ill be honest - I did use google translate to get the outlines of what im trying to say - and adjusted the english version until i found something Im happy with saying.

亲爱的vvvv 女士，

5年前，在中国期间，我有机会认识了很多中国人，体验了中国文化。在那段时间里，我遇到了一位名叫SSSS先生的人，他请我协助他在工厂工作。我帮助进行翻译和质量控制等日常操作。中文是一个学习的挑战,但我的进步表明我的奉献精神，我希望将来能够改进它。

yours sincerely (no idea how to write that properly)

Dear Mrs. VVVV

5 years ago during my time in china I had opportunity to meet many chinese people and experience chinese culture. During my time there I met a Man named Mr. SSSS who asked me to assist him with the work in factory. I helped with everyday operations such as simple translating and quality control. Chinese is a challenge to learn, but my progress shows my dedication and I hope to improve upon it in the future.

​

please feel free to change as much of it as you like. I really just want the application to stand out a little from the rest, and thanks for the time
