Dear Joe,
I’m back at school now. Thank you very much for the wonderfully week I spent with you and your family. During the week you teach me how to swim, boat or fish. I really appreciate your taking me around your place and I really enjoyed me. Your mother is such good cook that I think I must have put on nearly 3 kilogram in just one week. I’ll remember forever the seven happy days when we spent together. I did hope you’ll be able to visit our school sometimes next summer. Thank you again. Let’s keep in touch with. Remember me to your family.

How to manage your time

Yes? Then your new schedule is working well.
No? Then you should look at your schedule to see how it can be improved.
