MODEL ANSWER:

Dear Madam,

I am an overseas student in the fourth batch Emergency Medical Service course and I am writing this letter to inform the discontinuation of my course.

I joined the course on 22 January, which is almost a month ago. You started teaching us exactly a week after my joining, and I still remember that day. You taught us the basics of trauma care initially, followed by advanced life support techniques, the subsequent week. At the very beginning, I thought the topics are hard to digest, but things were made easy by you and eventually it turned out to be the favorite subjects for all.

I was waiting for my job interview results, which I had attended in my home country almost half a year ago. Yesterday, I got intimation from the authority to join the firm by next week and I find myself in trouble that I cannot complete the course successfully. It is hard for me to drop myself out of the course. I would like to express my sincere gratitude for all the help you have done and I hope I could rejoin the course whenever I get an opportunity.

I look forward to hearing from you in the future.

Yours sincerely,
(Name)
