A Letter to my Teacher 09C Wednesday 14:10-15:10

Dear students,
Your first task is to answer the letter I read to you last week.
1. Write a first draft and share it with me. I will give you feedback on it.
2. Improve your writing. Correct and develop your letter.
3. Write a new letter on exam.net, to show me what you have learnt.

Before you start writing we need to take a look at some examples of useful phrases. You should not use all the phrases in the same letter. Pick those that suit your letter the best. These phrases are only examples. You should write other things in your letter as well:
