　　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.

　　范文：

　　Dear Professor Smith,

　　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 find 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. Besides, I would also like to request a tuition refund. I am sorry for any inconveniences I have caused by this change in plans.

　　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
