    Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing this letter in response to an advertisement, which was published online a few days ago, where it shows that your tennis academy in Nottinghamshire is offering a short tennis course for beginners. Given how much interested I really am in becoming a good tennis player, I had naturally become very interested after seeing the word “short”.
