IELTS GENERAL WRITING TASK 1
IELTS GENERAL WRITING TASK 1
You have been studying French for one semester at university, but have decided to change your language course
– to English. Write a letter to the Dean of Studies, Professor Andrews
– explain why you wish to change your course of studies
– ask if it is possible to transfer your fees for the rest of the year without paying additional costs.
SAMPLE ANSWER
[SUBJECT]: Course 101
Dear ………………. ,
I am writing to you because I would like to change my course next semester. In the first semester this year, I took French 101, but now I have decided to change to English 101.
My main reason for asking to change is that the French course does not fit easily into my timetable for the new semester. Every fortnight I will miss two French classes because of the clashes with other papers I am doing.
As I have studied English in the past, I am confident I could pass English 101, even though I will have missed half of the course.
Another reason why I have decided to change my course is that I am planning a career in international business, and English is used more often than French in this part of the world.
I was wondering if it would be possible to transfer the fees that I have paid for French 101 to English 101. Thank you very much for considering my request.
Sincerely,
John Smith
