dear noah,

i, recently met your father and he was really concerned for you and asked me to advise you about learning a foreign language. therefore, i am jotting down some points to ponder for you.

just like you, i was pretty enthusiastic about learning a foreign language. but, i was
perplexed as what language to learn. i am heartily astounded with english as your choice for the second language. i believe you must focus on reading aloud, watching movies and news. in addition to it, you can also try a few online application that will provide you with virtual interaction that
helps to improve pronunciation. on top of that, i would like to tell you an impertinent advice “don’t be shy”, embrace your mistakes and learn.

i would also like to mention that as you are reading one of the most widespread languages, you must use the opportunity adequately. you can try
getting a part-time job at the reception of a hotel, consulting agency and a restaurant. this will not only help you to earn money but will also improve your language. i think you can also try getting an admission into a foreign university. this will, as a result, will add a feather to your
resume.

lastly, i would like to outline some of the advantages of learning english. studying it will certainly improve your personality together with uplifting your confidence. on top of that, even your professional life will get a boost. however, you will face some hurdles like learning
grammar and extending vocabulary. to be specific, i feel extending vocabulary is more difficult for a non-native speaker. but, i am assured you will overcome all the hurdles.

i will be glad if my advice will prove useful for you. i look forward to hearing soon from you.

best
wishes,

Dear Sam,

I was so glad to get your letter. Thanks a lot for writing me often.

You wrote that you had failed a maths exam and asked me what you should do. Well, if I were you, I would tell my parents the truth. I think your parents will understand and support you. Tell them you will do your best and study hard to retake the exam.

As for me I have never failed an exam. This is how I usually prepare: I study about two hours a day looking over my notes and practising a lot.

Well, I have to go now.

I'm looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Best wishes,
