good chance

[ngamary]

Dear Teachers and friends,

a. Although he hasn’t graduated from university yet, he can teach English from the level elementary and the level pre-intermediate. And he thinks that this school needs a person who has real ability, not a person who has a certificate but can not teach.

b. He’s looking for a new teaching position, because that educational corporation went bankrupt last year, and the director ran away with all the money of the corporation, and he couldn't get his 2- months salary.

c. He thinks that if the principal gives him a chance to work for the school, he will do / finish his teaching well.

- Are a & b & c ok to say?

Thanks

a- Omit the word "And" at the beginning of the second sentence.

b- Break this one into two sentences: put a period after "last year", omit the following "and", and begin the following "the" with a capital "T".

c- this is fine with the word "do"; "finish" doesn't sound natural here.

Can you explain the levels? I might say, "from the elementary level to the pre-intermediate level" if there are intervening levels.
