Dear Sir,
I am writing to complain about the poor quality of the
service at your centre Everything seems to be worse than what you say in the advertisement You say that all the
teachers are native ones but there are so many Vietnamese teachers You also say that there are no more than 20
students per class but my class has over 40 students …….
To resolve the problem, I require you to give me a refund.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours faithfully,
Do Anh Duc
