Tips for Writing a Respectful Email:​

​

1. Set your email title with the biggest reason of why you're writing to Ms. Lo

For example, MSO Music Lesson Question_Grade 5, Music Lesson Question_with your grade level, or Hello...

​

Every teacher receives at least 200+ emails per day, it is important you title your email with these topical words so your teacher could find your email quickly. If you're a student of Mentor Public Schools, please state the name of your school. That way, Ms. Lo can also get in touch with your home school's music teacher about your question.

​

2. Start your letter by addressing the person who will be reading your email. 

​

3. Phrase and explain your question with finding a resolution in mind. 

For example, "I know I was supposed to complete an assessment in Quaver but the assessment wasn't available to me on the Student Dashboard. Could you please help me?"

​

4. ALWAYS end your letter with thankfulness and your name. People are taking the time to read your email and replying to you so please be considerate of others. 

​
