Help with a preceptor

Best way to impress is in person. What I did for my first preceptor, I called the office and quickly introduced myself to the receptionist and asked her what the best time would be to come in person to talk to the office manager/doctor about precepting. She gave me a time, came in a bit early, did my quick intro with resume in hand. Many of my other classmates had similar successes doing in person while I know one specific classmates did emails and calls but not much luck initially.

With the covid, you may find it to be a lot harder to get a clinic. Because many clinics are doing telemedicine and spreading out their appointments, I still say it's best to call the office for a time you can come in and/or IF they are even taking students.
