How do you write a sorry letter to a teacher for talking in class?

Answer 1

You would want to write an Informal Personal Letter (not a Business Letter). Begin by putting the date on the RIGHT, TOP LINE. Skip a line. On the LEFT, write Dear Teacher's Name (see below). Skip a line. Indent 1 finger width. Begin writing. Indent each new paragraph. State specifically what you did wrong, and your intention to do right in the future. Apologize for being rude, disrupting the class, not giving respect. At the end, skip several lines and sign your letter.

EXAMPLE

(on right) Nov. 27, 2012

(skip line, now on right)

Dear Mrs. (last name), [Note comma]

(skip line, begin writing)

As you know, last Friday I made a nuisance of myself by talking in class. I realize now that I disrupted the class which was rude and did not show you respect. I'm terribly sorry and intend to follow the rules in the future. I'm also going to read the chapter you were teaching that day and write a one-page summary for you, since I missed most of what you taught that day.

Sincerely,

Skip 1 or 2 lines.

Sign your name

NOTE: You don't HAVE to offer to do extra work, BUT you missed the class material so you'll have to read it on your own anyway. You might as well write a one page summary, to show the teacher you are REALLY sincere.
