Letter of thanks

时间过得很多，一个学期快将结束了。过程中心情起伏跌宕。既要适应日常生活，又要重新适应新的学习环境，学习要求。又怕测试不合格，毕竟学费贵得惊人。不过，无论怎样，我的英语水平程度都有了很大的提升。而且，渐渐地，对这儿的生活不再太大的抗拒。心，开始安静下来。找回了自信，笑声，感恩之心油然而生。在学期快将结束的此刻，对于两位在加国首次接触的老师真的有点不舍。曾几何时，自己所信奉的：“朋友间的认识，只是每人在漫长旅途中的译站。当大家分开的时候，也就是各自上路的时候。”但此刻内心也是别有一番滋味。不久前，写了一封感谢信给她们，感谢她们给予我莫大的鼓励，不论在生活或学习上。

Dear （JOAN，LNYETTE）

I am writing to express my thanks to you.

As a new immigrant, we have to face many difficulties as we have to get used to the new society and the language. I ever tried to find some entry level jobs, but I found it was very hard to find a good job if I can not speak English well. So I decided to learn the language first. To me, that is an investment as it takes time and costs money. Fortunately, I have made the right choice. In Kwantlen, I got to know you, such a nice teacher and so many nice classmates. You are an excellent teacher, you are so nice and helpful. Every time I have trouble in my study, you are always happy to help me with patience. I know there is still a long way for me to crack English. But now I have become more confident. I am glad to say I have made some progress after one semester study. Before I joined this course, I did not dare to talk in English, but now I can use English in my daily life.

So here I would like to say “Thank you so much, thank you for your help and encouragement” I will keep working hard until I succeed.

Best regards

Yongyi(Winny) Xie

她们各自回信了：

Winny:
Thank you for your kind note.
Of course I have really appreciated having you in the class. I can always count on you and a few others to have done their work!

I know that you will make good progress in your English studies.

I also know that you live in Richmond, so you may not come to the Surrey campus next September when I have my next classes. Do keep in touch by email and let me know how you are doing!

Joan



Dear Winny,

Thank you so very much for your kind words.  I'm sure that if you continue to work hard and find opportunities to speak and listen to English everyday, you will achieve your goals and speak English while working in your dream job!
