Dear Sir or Madam:

Sichuan International Studies University is a state university of international studies established in May 1950. It is the most important University of International Studies in Southwest China. Ten languages are taught at the university. They are Chinese, English, French, German, Russian, Japanese, Spanish, Korean, Italian, Portuguese, Vietnamese, Hindi and Arabic. Every year we invite over 20 Foreign Teachers and Experts to teach the languages at our university. Most of them are English teachers. They come from different parts of the world, and bring in different cultures and customs, while at the same time they learn the Chinese culture and tradition. They work in different departments and contribute much to the teaching and development of the university. They live on campus and easily get access to the university facilities. They live in free apartments and are taken good care of by the departments and the Foreign Affairs Office of the university.
