Dear Mary,
Thanks a lot for your gift. I’m very happy to hear that you had a nice holiday in Italy.
I’ve finished the school year, but I’m not very satisfied with my results. I got good grades for all the subjects except for English. My English teacher said I wasn’t good at it, especially speaking and writing. Although I’ve tried my best.I can’t improve my English. Can you show me how to study it well? I’ll be very grateful if you can drop me a few lines about it. If only you were here, then I can learn something from you.
Write to me soon and tell all your news. By the way, send my best regards to your parents
Warmest regards,
Mai
