About this listen

Hey EduMagicians! In this episode, we’re diving into a must-know skill for every college student: how to professionally email your professor when you miss class, whether it’s your first absence or your third, and how you communicate matters.

I’ll walk you through a step-by-step checklist to help you write respectful, responsible, and effective emails that show initiative and professionalism.
We’ll cover:
  • What to check in your syllabus before emailing
  • How to reference class content and assignments
  • What to include to show you’re taking ownership of your learning
  • How to follow up with peers and use your LMS
Plus, I’ll share a free fill-in-the-blank email template you can use next time you’re absent. Let’s level up your communication skills and keep your college journey on track.
