Dear Professor Wells:

I am writing this assignment not only because I must, but also


because I want to tell you more about myself. This business letter
is the perfect opportunity for me to tell you what type of student I
am and what I hope to accomplish by taking this course.

I used to be an English major for my freshman and sophomore


years of college. However, during the middle of my sophomore
year, I changed to Criminal Justice because I began to see myself
more as a lawyer than a book publisher. I believe that this course
will provide me with the skills to successfully write any type of
letter, contract, webpage, etc. This kind of skillset is very useful for
someone like me, who would be dealing with all kinds of clients,
companies, and other law firms.

The assignments I chose to complete were the press release,


Investment Proposal Cover Letter, Responding to Social Media
Complaints, Customer Service Communication Package, and
Patient Leaflet. These few assignments are probably most like
some of the tasks I will have to do as a lawyer. I would write press
releases for my company or employer if they were a part of
something troubling. Responding to social media complaints about
our products to avoid legal troubles. I would write up the customer
service Communication package to cover all bases. I would review
patient leaflets to have a grasp on what coverage we provide for
all patients.

The most challenging task would be building an electric vehicle


charging station. This would be the most difficult because I would
need knowledge of a lot more than just the law. I would need to
know about zoning laws for the city I'm building it in, I would need
to know about the best place for the electrical components to be
utilized, and I would need to have a possible location for the
station. All these factors are something that would take a lot of
time to figure out and design. Plus, having to learn such things
would take time.

My goal for this course is to pass with a B or higher. This course is


not needed for my major, but I really wanted to take it. I see this as
a necessary skill in my future. I want to be able to say that I can
write something my superiors asked me to with confidence.

Sincerely,

Nyree Cannady
