Kolkata 700032
7th May 2023

Salutation:
Dear Father,

Body of the letter:
I hope this letter finds you well. I wanted to write to you about my preparations for the upcoming final examination. I understand that you may have concerns regarding my progress, but I assure you that I am working hard and staying consistent with my studies. Although I struggle a bit with Mathematics, I have been dedicating more time to it lately.

Thankfully, I am doing well in English and have surpassed my classmates in this subject. However, I am still giving it my best effort. I also need to focus more on science subjects, but my teachers are providing me with the necessary guidance to overcome any difficulties I may have. I am hopeful that I will be able to revise all the subjects thoroughly before the exams and do better than before.

Subscription or leave-taking:
With love,

Signature:
Aniruddh

Superscription:
Mr. A. K. Sharma
5A, Kalyani Road
Kolkata 700025

Q. Write a letter to your friend consoling him for his failure in the examination.

A LETTER OF CONSOLATION

Address……..

Dear Suman,

I was really surprised by the news and it caught me off guard. While some advice is to just move forward without looking back, I believe in looking back to learn from the past before moving forward. It’s unfortunate that you fell ill just before the exam and luck wasn’t on your side. This time around, it’s important to take good care of your health while preparing for the exam.

Don’t lose heart. You will surely emerge successful next time.

Yours sincerely,
Soumik
