Dear Lutfi,
How are you? It has been quite some time since we last met. I hope you
are doing well in your new school. I am writing to share my experience in
my new school.
As you know, I love learning English very much. My new English teacher
is Ms. Marlia. She looks very strict but actually, she is one of the most
creative teachers I have ever met! She makes learning English fun.
She gives instructions very clearly and we are encouraged to ask
questions. Remember how we used to shout answers to the teacher in our
old school? Ms Marlia wants us to put up our hand to ask or answer a
question and it makes the class more disciplined and less noisy.
Sometimes, we are allowed to have group discussions and for speaking
and listening tasks, we can do it in pairs. Once, we were given one soft toy
each and we had to conduct an interview in pairs. I got Donald Duck and I
was interviewing Ultraman. We automatically switched our voices to match
the character’s voice without being asked to. It was really funny and we
could not stop laughing. After the interview, we were asked to write a
dialogue based on our interview and guess what; my dialogue was chosen
to be published in the school magazine!
So, how is your new English teacher? I know you love English too. I
have to pen off now. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Your friend,
Rushd
