Dear Ms Liu,
This is my first letter to you. It’s thank-you letter! Thank you for your patience and guidance in this year. When I was in trouble, it was you who reached out and helped me. When I wanted to give up, it was you who supported me and believed in me. You would always help me after class and encourage me to work hard. And I learned a lot from you. Thank you for everything!
All the best ,
