Subject: Writing Advice

Dear Miss Davis,

I hope you are well. Can you please give me some advice to improve my writing before the
exam? I just received my book report back and I noticed that I lost a lot of points from all the
grammar and spelling mistakes I did. I really want to get better at grammar and spelling. Thank
you for your help!

Best regards,

Lina
