Hello, Nick!
I’d like to share my experience of having an e-mail friend. I was bad at English and I wasn’t very
good at Computer Studies. My English teacher gave me a good piece of advice to use the
Internet and make an e-mail friend. I found the ‘E-mail Friends’ Club’ website and chose the
name of my future friend. It was Helen from Switzerland. We started sending e-mails to each
other. We’re good friends now. My English is much better. I’m very good at using the computer
now, too. Here are some useful tips on how to write e-mail letters.
Yours,
Alec Fitzer
