Requesting Information
Dear Sir/Madam
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to inquire about driving schools in this area, as I
am keen to find a qualified and experienced instructor nearby.
I recently moved to the neighborhood from Bali and came across your service through a notice
board at the local community center. One of my primary goals during this period is to enhance
my driving skills in order to obtain a driver’s licence.
I would greatly appreciate it if you could recommend a certified driving school, ideally one with
extensive experience that can help me develop practical driving competence. As a recent
university graduate, I am working within a limited budget, so I would be grateful for any
information regarding affordable rates and flexible scheduling options.
Thank you very much for your time and assistance. I look forward to your response.
Yours sincerely,
Surya.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to express my concern regarding the current condition of my college dormitory
room, which has significantly affected my ability to focus and perform well academically.
Currently, I share the room with another student. Unfortunately, the environment is extremely
noisy and crowded. My roommate often invites friends over, and there is little to no regulation
on quiet hours. As a result, I find it very challenging to complete assignments or even get proper
rest.
I would be grateful if the management could consider possible solutions. These might include
transferring me to a quieter room or establishing clearer rules about noise and visitor hours.
Such steps would greatly improve my productivity and well-being.
Thank you for your time and understanding. I look forward to your response and a positive
resolution.
Yours sincerely,
Surya

stay in the house.
Currently, I was in the house all day with my friends. We were have a great time here to
celebrate our holiday after finish a big project at our company. However, I didn’t know these
things will happen to us, there are several problems that already happen at this house after the
party. First, the electricity went out several times. The second, we found a snake in the kitchen

The house was very beautiful, aesthetic and comfortable, but because of those things it would
