Do the preparation task first. Then read the text and tips and do the exercises.
Tips
1. If you don’t know the person well, start your email with Dear + the person’s name.
2. For women, use Ms + surname unless you know they prefer to use Miss or Mrs.
3. Say thank you if you are replying to their email.
4. At the start of your email, say why you are writing: I’m writing to + verb +… .
5. Write the day (Thursday), date (14 March) and place (our Astana offices in the Emerald Towers) clearly.
6. Explain clearly what they should do when they arrive for the appointment.
7. At the end of your email, you can say I/We look forward to meeting/hearing from/seeing you soon.

Yes, thanks for sharing. ;)
I do.
I sometimes receive e-mails like this one, to confirm an appointment :) Thanks for tips!
oh i never received an email like that before on my life but really i wish to learn English for that reason to apply to many companies
This is one of the main reasons, I am learning on this website to improve my writing skills. I have a C1 level on speaking and I have to write business emails on a daily bases.
I received emails like these ones last time I changed my job. I remember I needed to align time and place and since the company who was interviewing me was in a different country we scheduled many conference calls by Skype.
No, I don't receive like this email because people in my country don't use the email widely.
no , i don't
In fact, I didn't write emails like that kind, but I emailed to courses only, and I didn't try that sort of emails before, but I'll be improve my skills to write "working emails" to offices, companies or associations.
Actually, I have not applied for a job for years, so I didn't receive this kind of email like above one. However, I have to apply for a job if I don’t learn English soon.
