Most of your professional communication in the workforce will be as email. It is imperative that you know how to communicate in a professional manner in order to maintain a good rapport with coworkers and bosses. Tone and intention are often misconstrued when communicating through email; feelings are often hurt because of this. This could lead to vengeful attitudes. There is very little in life more stressful than having to work with or for someone whose focus is to make your life miserable.
Write a professional email to a teacher, the principal, librarian, or member of the community. Use formal letter format with a salutation, introduction paragraph, main body paragraph, and closing paragraph. Make sure you have your name at the bottom.
Have a classmate peer edit your letter to ensure proper spelling, grammar, punctuation, and tone. Run your letter through Grammarly.com to further refine your language.
