Dear Mary,
Thanks a lot for your gift. I’m very happy to hear that you had a nice holiday in Italy.
I finished the school year last month, 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 tried my best. I couldn’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. I hope I can learn a lot from you.
Write to me soon and tell all your news. By the way, send my best regards to your parents.
Warmest regards,
Mai
