Emotional Response
Dear Professor,

I really feel I have been an excellent student on your class during this semester. I always try my hardest on all the test and quizzes and do all the homework to my fullest. Sometimes, these assignments and study sessions pushed me to the brink of my energy and force me to stay up all night, but I ensure you that they are done with the fullest of my capabilities. But I feel my performance in your class has disappointed me and especially you. There have just been times during this semester that has forced my attention else where other than your class. I guess the main reason why I am sending you this email is to plead you to give me a better grade than what I have. I feel the issues and problems that have plagued me throughout this semester have greatly hindered me of my capabilities of succeeding in your very informative class. I hope you consider giving me a better grade than what I have earned in your class to salvage this terrible semester of college. Thank you.

Sincerely

Dear Professor,

As you can see with my grade for your class this semester, I feel I did not succeed. I am writing this email to you to prove that I deserve a better grade. Even though I tried my hardest in all my classes, especially yours, this semester has been filled with problems that are not school related. These issues ranged from problems with my relationships with friends to my family problems affecting me while I was attending classes. There were just times when my work was not above average through this whole semester and caused me to not succeed in most of my classes. To salvage this year, I ask you to give me a better grade in your class for this semester. Thank you.
