Dear friend!

My name is Kate. I am in the 7th grade. I am twelve. My marks are not good. I try a lot, but I am afraid I can’t be a good student. I can’t express my ideas and share my opinions with my friends independently. After school I like playing computer games. I enjoy listening to music and watching TV. I don’t have any time to help my mother. She comes home from work very tired. Can you help me? What should I do to be a brilliant student?

Dear Kate!

Here is what you should do: You can be a good student: Be patient, listen to your friends and share ideas with them. Do your homework every day. School comes first. If your lessons are difficult, ask your teacher, your classmates, your friends for help. They can help you. Good luck!
