Directions:

You find your study load is too heavy. Write a letter to your college teacher:

1） you need to withdraw from two courses,

2） explain the reasons,

3） ask if it is possible to obtain a refund.

Dear Professor Shakespeare,

I am writing to formally request to withdraw from two courses: Introduction to Elementary Education and Teaching Methods.

The main reason for reducing my course load is that I am finding it extremely difficult to manage six courses. Because I really have to work part time, I have no other choice but to decrease my course load.

I would also like to request a tuition refund. I am sorry for any inconveniences I have caused by this change in plans. This decision was not taken lightly, and I do appreciate the kind consideration you have shown to me. Thank you for your attention to these requests. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 82036600. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours sincerely,

Li Ming
