Dear Miguel,

How are you? I’m fine. Here is a letter in English. It’s good practice for you and me! I have classes in English at La Guardia Community College. I am in class with eight students. They are all from different countries: Japan, Brazil, Poland, Switzerland, and Italy. Our teacher’s name is Isabel. She is very nice and a very good teacher. I live in an apartment with American boys, Alex and Mark Kass. They are brothers. Alex’s twenty years old and a dancer. Mark’s eighteen and a student. They are very friendly, but it isn’t easy to understand them. They speak very fast. New York is very big, very exciting, but very expensive! The subway isn’t difficult to use and it’s cheap. It’s very cold now but Central Park is lovely in the snow. I’m very happy here.

Write to me soon.

Marcel.
