I can'tt believe that Tuesday was your last lesson!! I will miss you very much as I have thoroughly enjoyed our conversations and, on occasion, had a good laugh with you. You have improved over the last few months - well done

I asked what you had gained from the lessons and you said that the most beneficial thing was the new vocabulary and you felt more confident. I am really excited to see how you get on in America and am so pleased part of the reason you are going is to improve your English so you have enrolled in English classes.
