Dear Jane,
Thank you for your last letter.
I want to tell you about my new English teacher.
She is very serious and unfriendly. Her lessons are very boring, seems that time never goes. Moreover she is strict. For example last Saturday a my schoolmate made a mistake because he couldn’t translate a sentence, so the teacher became angry and she gave him a good telling-off. Then she gave all the class two long texts to translate as homework, so everyone had to work in the weekend.
Fortunately she replaces the English teacher for only one month.

All the best!

Dear James,
I want to tell you about my new English teacher Jane.
She is very young and charming but she is very competent in fact she is sicure, relax and interesting. She is helpful.
She came to class early and she didn’t yell at the student in fact she preferred to speak with them and to help them in fact she listened to their needs.
For these reasons the students are very interested and aren’t bored but they are very enthusiastic.

Amber is my new english teacher,she is thirty-five years old.she is tall,she has blond hair,she is a very nice,interesting and friendly person.
She always arrives very soon in class,just one day, she arrived late because she had a little accident. I remember that she was so nervous and she shouted,she was very hungry. However, it is truly a special person,she explains interesting topics and her lessons are never boring.we are very happy to have a teacher so young and special like Amber. She too,is very excited to have found a quiet classroom ,with students that want to learn English.

Hello Martha, I want to tell you about my new English teacher. Her name is Janet, she is 35 years old and is from Canada. Our first lesson was on Friday, replacing Professor Diana Pickens a little. First lesson was not so bad, we took some concepts already treated with another teacher, and then we covered a new topic. Her lesson is quite engaging and enjoyable, she tries to make the lessons exciting, especially when he sees us worried, especially considering the examination. Personally, I found her very friendly and youthful approach to us is. Who knows maybe all reused to pass the exam...

Hello Rosa, I want to tell you about my new English teacher. We meet he for the first time on Friday. His name is James, and he is 40 years old. His first lessons was boring, because our previous teacher, Diana Pickens, was really nice and exciting, while james is very serious.
The topics covered in the first lesson was interesting, but despite everything the class has not been met. The class is waiting the return of Professor Diana.

Dear Anne,
I want to tell you about my new English teacher.
His name is Lusy and has about 30 years, will replace the old teacher only for a month. Me and my mates were very worried about the lesson, in fact we arrived in the courtroom in advance.
But we were wrong because the teacher was very nice and polite, in fact for his first lesson instead of explaining the topic of the day brought a music CD into English by listening to us and at the end of lesson we spoke about his numerous trips abroad.
The old teacher we miss a lot, but the new is not bad!

Dear Gracy, I’m studing English with a new teacher. Her name is Brenda, she is very friendly but strict. Infact, a day we come to class late and she yelled at us. We just follow the lessons on Friday afternoon from 13.00 to 16.00 o’ clock, after lunch. Time is not the best because often we are all sleepy and our attenction is low. Instead the lessons are interesting and engaging. In fact, I think that requires more time for conversation, unfortunately the time passes quicky in the classroom. So now we have to do the final exam and I hope we succed. Give me your news. Kiss Vera
