Sub.: Regarding the behaviour of our Science/Math/English/History teacher

Respected Sir/Madam,

With due respect and humble submission, I beg to inform you, most regretfully, about the unprofessional behaviour of our Science/Math/English/History teacher - Mr./Ms. _________.

He/She often comes to the class late. Many times, he/she cracks awkward and obscene jokes, which I believe are inappropriate for students like us. Sometimes, he/she behaves indecently with the students, which is quite shameful. I have particularly noticed this a few times that he/she appears to be a little drunk during the afternoon session after the lunch hours.

His/Hers teaching methods are not very student-friendly. It has become very difficult to understand the subjects he/she teaches. Therefore, I request you to kindly investigate the matter urgently so that appropriate action against him/her can be taken and consequently, our studies do not suffer for his/her reckless behaviour.

Thanking you,

Yours obediently,

(Letter from the parents of a student to the Principal)

Date: ________

To

The Principal

______________ School/College

(Address)

Sub.: Regarding the behaviour of Mr./Ms. __________, Science/ Math/ English/ History teacher.

Respected Sir/Madam,

I am the father/mother of (Name of the Student), Roll No. ___, Section ___, Class: ___. He/She has informed me about the unprofessional and unethical behaviour of Mr./Ms. __________, Science/ Math/ English/ History teacher.

It is saddening that he/she is not very focused while teaching to the students. He/She cracks jokes in the class, which are inappropriate for the students. He/She comes to the class late most of the time and leaves early. He/She sometimes appears to be a little drunk. He/She behaves badly with many students. He/She never tries to solve the difficulties faced by the students in solving their understanding issues.

As you can see, this type of attitude on his/her part is quite detrimental for the students. I strongly doubt his/her teaching abilities.

Therefore, I request you that an investigation must be carried out on this immediately and strict disciplinary action must be taken against him/her. The students will greatly appreciate your quick and strict action in this matter.

Thanking you,

Yours sincerely,
