Dear Mr. Lawrence
I have seen your advertisement for summer language courses and I am thinking of attending one for two or three weeks. Could you please send me some information and details of prices? I would particularly like to know how many students attend the schools, their ages and how many students there are in a class. Also, can you explain what is included in the sports program and what amenities there are near the school? For example, is there a cinema or swimming-pool in little Bonnington? Could you tell me something about your staff? Are they all qualified teachers? Lastly, as I am a music student, I wish they very much to stay with a family who have a piano that I can practice on. Do you think it would be possible to arrange this?
I look forward to receiving your reply.
Your sincerely,
Daniel Rovetta.
