/Dear Sandra,

I am interested in learning to play the guitar. I already own a guitar and took lessons for six months, about three years ago. Unfortunately, I had an accident and broke my arm. I could not use it for a very long time, but now I am better and want to start the guitar again. I would like to study with you twice a week. I am free every morning except Thursday, and on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday afternoons. I work in the evenings.

I look forward to hearing from you.

/Dear sir,

I work in the Foothills Community College canteen, and I recently heard about free courses offered by the college. Is it true that all full-time staff can apply for these courses? I have been working here since the middle of June, and I am very interested in studying. Please send me further information about these courses and the application process.

Thank you for your assistance.
