Subject: Coming late
… Last month I was late for my classes several times. Though I wasn’t late on purpose and it wasn’t actually my fault, I was punished.
… Do any students in your class sometimes come too late to school? What are their usual reasons for coming late? Is there any punishment for late comers at your school and what is it?…

Email message from Emily
Dear Emily,
I'm sorry to hear about your recent troubles with being late. Yes, students in my class also come late sometimes. The reasons vary, but common ones include traffic jams, oversleeping, or sometimes just misjudging the time it takes to get ready in the morning. Our school does have a system in place for late comers. If someone is late without a valid excuse, they might have to stay after school for detention or write an essay on the importance of punctuality. It's meant to encourage students to manage their time better. Hopefully, things improve for you soon. Stay positive!
Best wishes,
[Your Name]
