EMAIL MEMORANDUM I

To: Elton Kok, ENGL 301 Student
From: Aleem Tariq, ENGL 301 Student
Date: September 23, 2020
Subject: RE: ENGL 301 Writing Team Invitation

Hello Elton,

Thank you for reaching out, and inviting me to your writing team. I am always eager to connect with a fellow BCS student. I couldn’t agree more about the fact that we share similar backgrounds in the natural sciences and would complement one another.

I also noticed the wealth of experience you offer from a background in academic writing, and your approach to learning by doing, which is also part of my learning philosophy. I have no doubt both will improve our team’s technical writing.

For the reasons stated, I happily accept your invitation to join your writing team and look forward to us working together. Attached is a copy of my application letter to the technical writing class. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me at aleemtariq19@gmail.com.

EMAIL MEMORANDUM II

To: Syed Ahmed, ENGL 301 Student
From: Aleem Tariq, ENGL 301 Student
Date: September 23, 2020
Subject: RE: ENGL 301 Writing Team Invitation

Hello Syed,

Thank you for extending an invitation to me. I noticed that we are both in BCS, and I too am eager to connect to other students in my cohort. I also noticed that we have very similar career interests, and wish to combine Computer Science with the natural sciences.

However, what caught my attention more than anything else, is the depth and breadth of your academic achievements and experience with writing in academia. There is no doubt in my mind that being a regular contributor to a scientific journal – as well as having published a thesis – would make you a star on any writing team. I appreciate both your experience and commitment to providing honest feedback. This ties quite well into my own desire to seek out feedback so that I may improve my technical writing.

Therefore, I happily accept your invitation to join your writing team and look forward to us working together. Attached is a copy of my application letter to the technical writing class. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me at aleemtariq19@gmail.com.

EMAIL MEMORANDUM III

To: Richard Chen, ENGL 301 Student
From: Aleem Tariq, ENGL 301 Student
Date: September 23, 2020
Subject: RE: ENGL 301 Writing Team Invitation

Hello Richard,

Thank you for your email and invitation to your professional writing team. I do agree that our shared program will offer us opportunities to work together in other courses as well, and so keeping a channel open in this class through a writing team would be a boon.

I couldn’t help but notice your extensive background in the accounting industry, specifically in case law research, and how this translates to an abundance of relevant experience for this class. In my mind, this would make you an excellent asset to a writing team.

I also appreciate your ability to provide excellent feedback, that is also tailored to individuals, considering their experience levels and the task at hand. Your desire to not only offer criticism but take criticism – for the sake of improvement – is something I deeply respect and share.

I would be honoured to accept your invitation and join your professional writing team. I look forward to us working together soon. Attached is a copy of my application letter to the technical writing class. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me at aleemtariq19@gmail.com.
