Band 7+: You live in a room in college that you share with another student, but there are many problems with this arrangement and you find it very difficult to work. Write a letter to the accommodation officer at the college. In your letter: Describe the situation. Explain your problems and why it is difficult to work. Say what kind of accommodation you would prefer. You should spend about 20 minutes on this task.

Dear Sir/ Madam,

This is to bring to your kind attention that I am facing difficulties in my current accommodation and want to request a change of room. The room where I am accommodated right now has a very busy environment because it is located near the mess area of the hostel. I barely get quite time to spend, and it is difficult for me to focus on my studies or other chores.

Moreover, I have issues with my roommate, too. It’s very difficult to share a room with a person who creates so much disturbance, for instance, calling all his friends into the room and doing loud gossip with each other, which results in not lack of sufficient sleep and focus on my academics.

Hence, it is my humble request to shift me to another room that is peaceful and does not have a chaotic ambience. Your prompt solution to the problem will be highly appreciated. In anticipation of your response.
