I got an email from a professor which started with:

Thanks for interesting to work with me...

I was wondering if this is grammatically correct. I thought the correct usage should be:

Thanks for your interest to work with me...

but I am not sure.

    Neither of these expressions is idiomatic. Ones that would be are Thanks for taking the interest to work with me; Thanks for your interest in working with me.

  • @WS2 I see. Thanks. But is the first one grammatically correct? i.e. is it okay to use "interesting" (with "ing") there?

    No, it isn't. A subject interests you, you don't interest it. I would suggest Thanks for taking an interest in working with me.
