Dear Kate:
I'm happy to see the E-mail from you.I knew that you would go to China to study Chinese.As to how to study Chinese well, I have some ideas for you. Firstly, you should practice reading Chinese words aloud as much as you can. And you can talk with your friends everyday. Besides, you also can join a Chinese club to make friends with Chinese people to improve your Chinese-speaking. I wil teach some Chinese knowledge for you if possible. I hope you can learn Chinese well and have a good time in China.
Yours,
Li hua
