Dear Mr. Harrison,
My name is Chloe Vance, and I am a student in your Business Studies 101 course, which takes place on Monday and Wednesday afternoons. I wanted to write to you to say that I am finding the course very interesting so far. I particularly enjoy the case studies you present, as they make the topics feel very relevant.
Although the content is excellent, I feel that one area of the course could have an improvement. While the weekly lectures are very informative, a few of us find the theoretical concepts quite difficult to apply to real-world situations. We understand the definitions, but sometimes it is hard to imagine how they work in an actual company.
I would like to suggest a possible change that might help with this. Perhaps it would be possible to include more practical group activities or workshops in the tutorials. For example, we could be given a problem from a real business and work together to find a solution using the theories we have learned. This would give us a better understanding and also help prepare us for future work.
Thank you for your time and for considering my suggestion.
Yours sincerely,
Chloe Vance
