I worte a letter to my son's teacher regarding the class placement for the next school year, please correct it

Question

My son xxxxx has been attending school in xxxx Unified School District since beginning of elementary school. His father regularly works overseas throughout his school year , so xxxxx does not get to see his father very often. I feel it would be very helpful and it will mean a lot to my son if he can have a male teacher whom he can look up to and have a role model to be influenced by as he grows up. He really enjoys the Robotics Club at school. He is very active, smart and has many friends. I hope my son can have a male teacher because he can be a good father-like mentor for him .

Thank you for your consideration. I appreciate it.

Answer 1

I like the letter.  It might be helpful to you if you actually go and talk to his present teacher and discuss your concerns and find out about the teacher choices and request a specific teacher by name.

I would follow up also with talking to the principle.

Answer 2

It is well written. :D

Answer 3

It's good except the sentence about robotics is a little out place.
