Leaving gracefully

Do not leave rashly. Do not lose your temper.
Do it well.

Write your instructor a brief, courteous e-mail or letter explaining why you are leaving.
Aim to avoid blame, criticism or recriminations.
Avoid being off-hand, making assumptions or being rude in any way.

If you feel that you may want to re-join the class again at some later stage, ask if this is possible.
Be careful not to spoil your chances with disrespectful words or conduct.

Even the most difficult of students sometimes show a surprising degree of good grace when leaving.
By leaving well, you will be remembered well.
