Re: 5 Lettes

For this assignment, I was able to take my creativity and make up scenarios based on what you

have given. The assignment itself was very enjoyable as it not only let me expand my own ideas

and ways of writing but it also helped me practice my letter writing skills. Growing up I didnt

have to write many letters considering the technological advances that have occurred

throughout the years. Yet, now that I am older I find myself writing more and more letters for

jobs, to the university, etc. and this assignment not only forced me to strengthen my letter

writing skills but it also helped me mature in a sense. This assignment was not as bad as I

thought it would be yet I would have enjoyed more practice with writing letters and identifying

bad and inappropriate letters. You should keep this assignment because its not only developing

ones writing skills but it is also developing ones life skills. Writing letters can be part your

everyday adult life and unfortunately not everyone knows how to write a letter properly. This

assignment can actually perfect that skill.

60600 Dear Bruce Newport,
I am writing you concerning my visit at your restaurant on Friday, June 9th
at 7:30 pm. I am a very loyal customer of Newports Seafood Restaurant as
I have dined there multiple times with friends, family, colleagues, and have
held occasional dates there. Your restaurant is indeed a favorite of mine as
I love the amazing cuisine served and not only that but your staff has
always been warm and friendly.

Since going to Newports Seafood Restaurant, I have never received such

distasteful service until the night of June 9th. I set a reservation the night
prior for 7:30 pm and also verified that morning to make sure my
reservation was still set. It was very disappointing to not only get there and
not have our table ready but to also wait an hour and fifteen minutes. I was
dining with a very important client that night and I gave such great praise
to the restaurant for its delicious food and exceptional service.
Unfortunately, after waiting for so long for our table and to also be faced
with a very rude and uninterested matre d, the night ended badly.

Although my clients and I have agreed to schedule another dinner, it was

embarrassing to speak so highly of the restaurant only to leave dissatisfied.
I have always enjoyed your restaurant and I would hate to no longer come
to one of my favorite restaurants because of the bad service my guest and I
received that night. I would appreciate receiving half off on the dinner or a
gift card for another dinner. It is unfortunate that my clients and I had to go
through such service yet I am confident that you and your staff will make
changes so that no one else will receive dissatisfactory services.

Sincerely yours,

Najeal Young

Dear Childrens Hospital,
I am writing you today on behalf of Nurse Jack Roberts. He is applying to
your pediatric program in order to increase his skill level in pediatrics as
well as begin his residency. He has been working for Dallas Grace
Memorial Hospital as a nurse for six years and is now branching out to
pursue becoming a doctor in Pediatric Surgery.

I have been Nurse Roberts supervisor for a little over four years and he
has never disappointed. At Dallas Grace Memorial Hospital we set a very
high standard that our staff must oblige to and Nurse Roberts is
exceptional at exceeding the standards. He attends to his patients every
need as well as works extremely well with the other nurses and doctors on
staff. Roberts is a selfless person as he has put in countless of hours and
days into his work and patients in order to make sure that everything runs
smoothly and in order. His pediatric skills are phenomenal and are the best
I have seen in my fourteen years at Grace Memorial. He is very detail-
oriented, well organized, and his demeanor has always brightened his
patients days. There have been multiple occasions where patients have
come to me to give Nurse Robert praise for his hard work and dedication.
After spending four years with Jack Roberts, I must say his dedication to
his job is superior. He is open minded, flexible, determined, and most of
all, he gives 100% effort in making sure his patients are well taken care of
and comfortable. If I were given the chance I would hire Roberts again
without a second thought. He will thrive in your program in more ways
than one and I believe he will be an exceptional nurse on your staff.

Sincerely yours,

Dear Lincolnshire West Leasing Office,

It has come to my attention that there is a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom unit available on

your property. I came across this unit on apartments.com and it stated that the rent is
$1,090/month. My girlfriend, our three children, and I would be moving into the unit
if it is available and we own no pets.

My girlfriend and I are both personal trainers and we have decided to relocate our
family from Dallas to DeKalb to be closer to both of our families as well as my
girlfriend will be attending Northern Illinois Universitys graduate school in the fall.
We are looking for a nice, spacious apartment for our family of five and after
reviewing ever apartment complex in DeKalb, your facilities seems like the best fit
for us. It is a plus that your complex comes with a pool as well as every unit has high
speed internet and cable.

I would appreciate if you contact me as soon as possible at (123) 456-7890. My

family and I are willing to move as soon as possible. I have the down payment, first,
second, and last months rent available now. If you are available I would be pleased to

Dr. Bernd Hessing

Dallas School District Superintendent
4321 First Street
Anytown, State ZIP

Dear Dr. Bernd Hessing,

It has come to my attention that there has been an increase of violent behavior

amongst junior high school students. I have been working in the 3rd District for about

six years now and have now noticed the uncouth and very violent behavior amongst

the students. I have talked to other teachers and staff and the issue is not only at our

school, but it is also widespread.

After consulting with the principal, she has given me permission to pursue creating a

prevention/coping program for children and young teens . As the crime rate increases

in our neighborhoods, our schools should become safe spots and sanctuaries that

help our students divert from violence. Our children are the future and we must steer

them to the right path. Considering how efficient your office has been with handling

issues amongst the district, I am confident that your office will be reviewing the issue. I

suggest creating multiple after school programs and sports activities that will help the

students not only stay off the streets but it can also help them channel their anger or

issues into something more positive. This will help both the students and you as you

will have gained control of the violence in the district and will no longer have to worry

about the high violence rate. The students will be in a safer environment and will have

a sanctuary where they are protected and can enjoy themselves.

If possible, I would enjoy helping you and your staff conduct this project. I have

multiple ideas for after school programs and also have connections with athletic

directors and teachers who are willing to work free of charge, that way your office will

be able to save on funding for these programs. I appreciate your time and

consideration into these programs and I am willing to help you and your staff as much

as possible.

Sincerely yours,

Senator Ted Cruz
U.S. Senator for Texas
300 E 8th
Suite 961
Austin, Tx 78701

Dear Senator Cruz,

First and foremost, good evening and thank you for taking the time out of your schedule

to read my letter. I appreciate your time spared. I am writing to you in concern about the

budget for our school systems, considering Trumps administration is in the process of

cutting millions from the Department of Education. Considering you were running against

President Trump, I am intrigued by what your stance may be on the matter as well as what

you will do concerning the budgets for schools across Texas.

President Trump has openly stated that he is making budget cuts from the Department of

Education and is approximately cutting 16% from the budget, which equals to about $11

billion. Him along with his choice for U.S. Education Secretary, Betsy DeVos, both want to

shrink the federal role in education. He is planning to cut $15 million from child care

services for low-income parents and college students, $27 million in art programs, $12

million in programs for gifted students, and $12 million from the Special Olympics, just to

name a few. Curious, how will this be affecting the Texas school systems as Ive read in an

article recently that about 175 school districts in Texas will be missing out on millions of

dollars in school funding due to state lawmakers disagreeing on a school finance reform

bill. I have also read recently that the Texas Senate removed $1.8 billion in public

education cost and will in turn raise the property tax in order to cover the expenses. Do

you agree with this matter? If not what would you have done differently?

1234 Main Street Anytown, State ZIP 123-456-7890 www.example.com

As a parent one of my main concerns is the type of education my children are receiving,

which is why I am writing to you to read your input on the budget cuts and what you feel is

the necessary action(s) for this reform. I cannot fathom the amount of billions being

stripped from education as many programs not only help children academically, but it also

creates a safe place where they can openly be themselves. I believe that you are a strong

supporter for education and I trust that you are taking matters into your hands and

handling them accordingly. Once again I am thankful for you taking the time out of your

day to read my letter and I send my best regards.

Sincerely yours,

Najeal Young
