Dear Sir,
This
is Hemalatha Palanivelu. I am an
English
student of yours, and I hope you remember me as I studied
English
in your class during my entire schooling. I am writing
this
letter to request to borrow some specific
English
books
from you as I am planning to tutor one of my friend's sons. I recently moved back to India from the US, and I am planning to stay here for a few months. I visited one of my old friends, and
while
meeting her, I promised to tutor
English
to her kid as he is studying in fifth grade plus he seems to have difficulty reading and writing the language, majorly he is
also
finding the grammar part difficult.
Hence
, I decided to teach him. But, I am aware that certain publications like the Oxford and Cambridge ones which you own, are the ideal
books
to teach kids.
Hence
, I wanted to borrow those
books
from you so the kid can practice lots of exercises from those
books
as they provide more practical examples.
Therefore
, please kindly let me know if I can meet you at school or at your home to pick up the
books
, at your earliest convenience. Many thanks, and hoping to hear from you soon. Yours faithfully, Hemalatha Palanivelu
