One Possible Version
Dear Sandy,
I was sorry to hear that you aren’t getting along in your new school. I understand what you’re going through. Back when I entered a new school, I experienced the same thing. Let me tell you a little about it.
When I first started studying a new school, I really struggled to get along with my classmates. They all seemed to gather in little cliques and it was hard to communicate with them because they didn’t seem interested in talking to me. I wouldn’t have minded, but it was affecting my study.
In the end, I made sure that study was what really counts. Then, I made greater efforts to reach out to my fellow students. I asked them questions to make them feel appreciated and spent some time with one or two of them to build a social connection. Finally, I really made it!
Hopefully, these tips will be of any help to you, too. Let me know how it goes.
David
