Writing
• An email giving advice
*Look at the email. Who is Marzhan
writing to and why?
Hi Daniya,
I'm sorry to hear that you haven't made any friends at
your new school. Let me tell you a few tips that can help.
Why don't you try sitting with different people at lunch?
This way, you'll get to meet new people. Don't worry
about being shy; start small talk and you'll
soon feel relaxed.
Another good idea is to join a sports team
or any after-school club. This way, you'll
meet people with similar hobbies and
interests, and feel more comfortable.
Well, better go now. Hope my
advice helps! Write back and tell
me how things are going.
Best wishes,
Marzhan
