Dear Andrew,

   I’m glad to hear from you again. Sorry for not answering you right away, I was very busy. Now I can answer on your questions about school.

   To be honest, I like every single subject and they all are easy for me. Even Mathematics and Chemistry! The that I spent on my homework depends on how much homework I have to do and how hard it is. Usually it takes me from two to four hours. And after finishing my homework I get to spend the free time studying French, Spanish and Chinese. But I don’t always spend it that way, sometimes I draw, listen music or paint. I’m sorry, but I have to go and help my mum. Hope to hear from you soon!

                                                                            Sincerely, (name and last name)

Надеюсь
