Suggest you read an article or book on how to write such a letter. This is not how you should do it if you intend to make an impression on anyone who might offer you an internship. Your writing is disjointed, grammatically awkward and has spellingm capitalization and punctuation errors. If I as an employer were to receive such a letter it would be discarded immediately. You sound unprofessional and inexperienced when you write that you have ”fantastic credentials. ”
Quite a comment you have there. When you learn to spell and use proper punctuation, perhaps you will be in a better position to criticize others on the matter. Good day.
