Good evening Professor Doe,

I hope you are doing well. I am writing to inquire about the possibility of an extension on the due date for my assignment. I understand the importance of meeting deadlines, but I am having difficulty completing it by the set date.

I would appreciate it if you could consider my request and let me know your decision.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]
