Dear Sir or Madam,

I have seen your website and I would like to know more about your English courses.

Also, do you have any accommodation for those dates?

Thank you for your help.

Studying abroad is a dream for me. But studying in the UK is too expensive for me. If I really have the opportunity to study oversea, I think I have to choose a location where the cost of living is cheaper!
