Anyway, I thought I would drop you a line to give you some personal tips on how you could pass the interview.
(Bypass "in my point of view" by just saying personal. That is basically what "in my point of view means)
Anyway, I thought I would drop you a line to give you some tips about how (in my point of view) you could pass the interview. (By keeping "in my point of view" but placing it into parentheses. It is okay to do this in English as it will not create a run-on. You may do this as long as the sentence would still make sense even if what you have placed in the parentheses was not there. This is not really basic English. pardon me if this confuses you.
