applying for future internship

I have wrote a letter to a former boss, who works at Hawthorne Cedar Kwolls in Hawthorne New York, asking for a position as assistant art teacher. The letter reads:

 I wanted to get in touch with you, because I graduate college this Spring. I wonder if you could help me get an internship at Hawthorne Cedar Knolls or one of the other schools where you are now working. I'm interested in working during the summer and potentially into the next school year. Being a one-to-one  helped me to understand a few of the students a lot better and gave me the opportunity to handle their specific needs. This time around, I am interested in applying for a job as assistant or full time art teacher at one of the schools. I am still extremely interested in working with special needs children especially within the arts. I feel that I have a lot to offer the children and staff using my four year
s of art school experience. I have been exposed to all different types of mediums and materials within an art class setting and believe that my skills of basic art terminology and craft can really help these children succeed. I would also be interested in the possibility of working with the children through theatre, as this is also an area in which I have quite a lot of experience.  I will be in Croton from Dec. 24th-Jan 7th and would be very happy to meet with you or visit one of the schools and talk about the possibilities of employment. Please contact me when you have a chance.
