INTRODUCTORY LETTER (1 page)

This is a letter to explain for your portfolio. Address your letter to “Dear Prospective Employer.” This letter should be written as if it were describing your work in the course to a prospective employer, not your instructor. Provide enough information in your letter so that your portfolio can stand alone, without further explanation. No address needed in the header, do use the date.
