[范文]

Dear Zhanghua，

Long time no see! I miss you very much. Now I am so excited that I can't wait to share with you an unforgettable experience. I gave my first lesson today, which left me a deep impression.

Seeing a young teacher enter the classroom, my students began to make more noise. I stood on the platform, feeling embarrassed and not knowing what to do. Then I realized something must be done. I asked the kids whether they liked English songs. After taking a deep breath, I sang a song I had practised many times. To my surprise, all the kids were concentrating on my class later on.

How delighted I am now! Actually, whatever happens, we must stay calm first and then find a wise solution. Looking forward to your reply.

Yours，

Li Hong
