Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
According to the reading of your question, we can see that the author uses persuasive techniques related to something that is painful for him. In that case, we can consider that he uses pathos as a persuasive technique. This is because pathos is a resource that explores the emotion of the reader in relation to the topic addressed, this makes the reader sympathize with the author's words and intensifying the tone promoted in the text.

APPLICATION FOR CHANGE OF PROGRAMME
Dear sir, I write to you to inform you about my desire to change my program from Mathematics to Geography as a matter of urgency.
First of all, I'm not good at Mathematics and I feel I would be doing myself no favors as I would perform poorly. Besides, learning is a great thing and it should be fun too so I see no need why I should be doing what I'm not adept at and also what I do not like.
Furthermore, my career path is more suited to Geography so I would really like to start from now to forge my own future, besides doing what I am good at and also love doing.
I hope you look kindly at my request.
Yours faithfully,
Allan Su.
