A practise letter Dear Mr. Wang, I am sorry to inform you that I cannot attend your Chinese evening course recently because I have to travel to China in the next two months. As you know, I am working in a multinational enterprise which has a branch in China because we have numerous customers there. That is also the reason why I need to learn Chinese. But I was arranged to go to China and work there for two months from next week. As a result I have to be absent in your course. I hope I can continue my class when I come back and maybe I need to be tested then because my Chinese will have been improved during my time in China. I am sorry for absense, and I would pay some money for compensation if needed. Please inform me about that in your reply. Sorry again for inconvenience. I am looking forward to meet you after two months. Yours sincerely, Mike
