This is part of a farewell letter I am writing to my boss because I am quitting my job.

"I have enjoyed my summer here and truly appreciate having had the opportunity to work in a professional environment that I would not otherwise have been able to anywhere else."

Yes and no. It makes sense, but it's awkwardly written. It should be split into two more coherent sentences. You have two thoughts here. First, you're thanking your boss for the opportunity. Second, you're specifying what the opportunity meant to you.

I have enjoyed my summer here and truly appreciate having had the opportunity to work in a professional enfivonment. I gained experience I would not have received anywhere else.

it makes sense but it is a run-on sentence and some of the phrases aren't necessary. I'd break it into multiple sentences as follows:

I have enjoyed my summer here (at company name). I truly appreciate you for giving me the opportunity to work in a professional environment where I have learned valuable job skills.

♥ I think it sounds good, however I would try saying this:

* "I have enjoyed my summer here and truly appreciate having had the opportunity to work in a professional environment that would have otherwise not been available to me."

"I have enjoyed my time here and truly appreciate having worked in such a professional environment." You probably will find other professional environments, and your boss knows that, so don't say you believe you wouldn't have had that opportunity elsewhere.

Its a little too long and repetitive.

Try this:

I have enjoyed my summer here and truely appreciate the opportunity to work in such a professional enviornment.

I eliminated "anywhere else" because its really not true that you wouldnt find another professional enviornment anywhere else.

Remember K.I.S.S. - Keep It Simple Stupid

(You're not stupid its a saying)

Good luck!

you can leave off the "anywhere else" part and it'll still make perfect sense. as is it's kinda a run-on sentence and needs to be a little shorter. will say it sounds very professional.

instead of summer I'd say "time"

it sounds like you mean that the place you work at is the only company in the world that has a "professional environment"

I'm not sure how to change that...I'd reword it somehow

Ummm...It's a bit of a run on sentence.
Cut it into 2 sentences. Then it will sound better, make more sense and become "grammatically correct"....I get what you're saying but you know...you can improve it.
