Dear Miss Zhang:
How time flies! Long time no see. I told my classmates that I have a friend in China and she is a teacher. They want to be penfriends with your students. They want to know something about your school. They want to know what you study. They think Chinese is very interesting. They want to learn Chinese, too. They want to come to China one day. So they write some letters. Best wishes
YoursLyla
