Respected Sir,
I am Akanksha, a student of class 10th eagerly waiting for my board’s result. I am idle sitting at home as results will be declared in early August. So, I am planning to do something productive to utilize my free time well. Therefore, as per the reference of advertisement you have posted in the newspaper regarding a short-term course available in your institute. I want to enquire about the same.

Please inform me about the few details-
- Duration of the course
- Fees of the course
- Timing of the batches available
- Regarding hard/soft copies of the notes or demo classes
- Description of the course

Looking forward to the earliest reply as I am eager to join the course soon.
Thanking you,

Yours sincerely,
Akanksha
