Dear Tayo,

How is your studies? I hope that you are doing very well. I know that you must have been expecting my letter. Why I have not been able to write you since is that I was trying to adapt myself to the new environment I found myself.
Tayo, to say the least, I regret changing my school because my present school does not live up to my expectations. When I resumed in the school there are some facts. I discovered about the school which made me to regret changing my school.
Firstly. my new school lacks good laboratories. As a science student, I find this disgusting. The science laboratories are not equipped at all. The rooms referred to as laboratories here cannot pass for a normal classroom in my former school. In fact, one can't call them laboratories. To make matters worse. there are no equipment; what you can get there are few test tubes and one or two bunsen burners.
Secondly, the school has no library. In the whole school there is no library where students can go to read and borrow relevant books. This fact goes to show me that my former school is relatively good going by the big library there. Alas, I didn't realise this until I got to this school.
The situation is further worsened by lack of qualified and committed teachers. The school has no qualified teachers to handle most of the subjects. Unlike my former school where there are two teachers for each of the major science subjects and English Language, there are no teachers to teach us Physics and Chemistry here. Even the teachers in other subjects are not committed to their duties. Therefore, we often miss our lessons and through this a lot of time is wasted.
You can now see the dilemma in which I find myself. If I had known, I wouldn't have changed my school. It is a long time you wrote last. Please write so that I can know how you are doing in your studies.
Yours sincerely.
Kemi.
