Dear Sir,
I am writing to complain about the poor quality of the service at your centre Every thing seems to be worse than what you say in the advertisement
First of all, you say that there are only native teachers, but my class has only one Vietnamese teacher and two native teachers You also say that each class has no more than 20 students but there are over
30 students in my class In the advertisement you say we can have books and cassette tapes free but in fact we have to pay for them To make the matter worse, the classroom is not air-conditioned That is quite different from the advertisement Finally, what I do not like most about your centre is the time The class time is not the same as what the advertisement says Classes not only start late but also finish early To resolve the problem, I requite you to give me a refund Enclose is a copy of the receipt
I look forward to hearing from you and to getting a quick resolution of this problem Please contact
me at the above address or by phone at 04 38333557
Your faithfully,
Nguyen Hong Van
