Dear McRae,
I know this might be a bad time to write to you right now but i just wanted to give you a few words of encouragement. I am very proud of how hard you worked last semester. With all that you had going on i think you did a fantastic job keeping up with your work and turning in your assignments on time. You got off to a good start and didn’t dig yourself a big hole as i know some of your friends did. This doesn’t mean that you can’t do a lot better than you did. You are more than capable of making the dean’s list. One thing you could’ve done better was organizing your thoughts and writing more down. What I mean by this is getting a planner and at the beginning of each week write down all assignments and when they’re due to ensure that you won’t miss a single one. Other than that I am extremely proud of you and can’t wait to see what more you can achieve.
Best,
McRae
