Sample Answer:

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am Noah William. I live in the USA and I have come to England for about 4 weeks. Yesterday I saw your tennis course advertisement in a daily newspaper. Playing Tennis is always my passion and hobby. I am very much eager to join your course.

I have come to England for a month and my visa will expire before a week the course will finish as the duration of the course is about one month. Nevertheless, I do not want to miss this opportunity and want to get enroll in this course for those days I am here in England. I would be very grateful if you allow me to take part in the course for those days I have mentioned.

As the course regulation is to pay full fee before admission, I would like to request you to inform me if it is possible some rebate as I will not be able to complete the full course for the above mentioned problem.
Waiting for you response as soon as possible.

Yours faithfully,
Noah William
