Please correct the following text:

I don't have any complain from you. I know you are at disadvantage because  you have to explain things without the diagrams and in science it's really hard to do without them. But those science books authors waste so many pages on those exercise questions and colourful pictures. Those exercise questions can be found in any other book. So I believe they should concentrate more on explaining concepts. The worse of all is that those science books rely so much on mathematics that for a moment one may think that he is not studying science. I know science and mathematics go together but conceptual understanding go first and then follows mathematical symbolism.

Hi Jackson,

I understand what you're saying about science books and "those science book authors," but whom are you addressing in your opening sentences?  "I don't have any complain from you."  Who are "you"?   -    A group of teachers?  Have they been forced to teach science without textbooks?  How did that come about?  Have you taken away their books in order to teach "those authors" a lesson?  Why are you punishing the teachers?  It would be difficult to correct this without knowing what the heck is going on.

Best wishes,   - A.

Second one.

To Avangi:
Let's say ''you'' is the person who answers my e-mails. In fact I just made up the above text.
