Dear Ms. Lo
(with regard to / despite / according to) your interest in the Hong Kong School of Etiquette, we are writing to inform you that (due to / since / therefore) response to next month’s classes, a special seminar called "Etiquette for Businessmen" will be available on Saturday afternoons for the next three weeks.

I am struggling to make a choice between:
1. “with regard to” and “due to”
2. “according” and “therefore”
I can’t decide which one is correct, I feel both ( “1” and “2” ) are fine.
I am an English learner, your help and explanation will be much appreciated.
Thanks very much.

"Due to" and "because of" have more or less the same meaning. Does this help you decide?

"1" is correct.
