Letter of Advice
I'm sorry to hear that you are very stressed and you felt unhappy about the failed result of your tests.
I can see your problem is mainly caused by the busy timetable of your school open days. To prepare for the open days took all your study time. You felt so tired after school so you couldn't manage to study and revise for the tests.
Since the main cause of your problem is the open days, you can talk to your teachers concerned and explain about your situation to them. You may also ask them to give you another chance to retake the tests.
I hope my suggestion can help you to solve the problem.
Yours,
Kevin
Letter for seeking advice
Hi Kevin
I'm very stressed these days. Let me share with you what have happened, so you may give me some advice.
These days, our school is preparing for the open days. I am one of the choir members and I need to stay two days after the school for the choir practice. At the same time, I also need to help to decorate the classrooms for the open days. It takes me two more days after school.
The problem is I was so tried after I came home. I went straight to bed. I couldn't manage to study and revise for the tests. So, I failed two tests in the past two weeks. I felt very bad about the results.
What shall I do? Please help me.
Best Wishes,
Alan
