Many of our candidates do not take need to study special rules. The quality of letters written by our graduates remains appalling.

The enquiry discovered that there has been great relationship between the two. After thorough discussion, suggestions and recommendations were made to all the stakeholders of education. The recommendations, if well followed would help much to remedy the graduates canker disease of lack of competency in their official letters. Thirty six (36) students of summer semester were used as sample. The piagination cognitive theory of learning was used through Demonstration and traditional lecture methods in teaching the students the concept letter writing.
