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
