　　Dear Professor Smith,

　　I am writing to formally request to withdraw from two courses: Introduction to Elementary Education and Teaching Methods.

I am sorry for any inconveniences I have caused by this change in plans.

　　Thank you for your attention to these requests. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 82036600. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
