Dear Laura,

Hi! Long time no see. How are you doing? I hope you are fine.

You are always kind and funny.

I really enjoyed the homestay. You made me feel relaxed and fun with your smile.

Your smile gave me power.

Your classes were very exciting and interesting. I want to take your classes again.

You taught us many things such as English, American culture and the motto

“We can do it.” I'll never forget learning from you.

You are the best teacher guide.

Thank you for everything you did for us for three weeks.

I am looking forward to meeting you again!

Dear the Flannagan Family,

Hello, Melody, Mike and Marta. How's it going?

Thank you for hosting me for three weeks.

I spent a great time with your family.

I was nervous at first because this homestay was my first time

to visit a foreign country, but I was happy that you accepted me like your real family.

I was not good at speaking English,

but you were very kind to me and told me a lot of things.

Thank you for speaking slowly for me.

Melody, your smile made me feel happy. I like your smile.

I really enjoyed talking and shopping with you. I wanted to talk with you more.

When there was a word I didn't know, you always explained it to me in easy English.

Mike, thank you for making lunch for me every day and driving me to the study center.

The Batman's badge you gave me is my treasure now.

Marta, thank you for teaching me many things.

I enjoyed talking, watching movies and shopping with you. It was really fun!

I was glad that I met your family. I made great memories with you.

I really appreciate your kindness.

I'll never forget learning from your family.

THANK YOU for the special three weeks you gave me!!
