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!

Dear Ms Zhang,
How time flies! It has been three years since we first met you at Huaping Girls’ High School. Our time together was short but unforgettable.
Over the past three years, you took care of everything for us. Early in the morning, you would wake us up and turn on the lights in the dormitory building for us. In class, you checked our homework. Late at night, you would walk in and around the building for our safety.
“Get up, girls!” “Time for early morning reading, girls!” “Good night!” All these will stay with us.
We feel so lucky to have you with us. Your deep love will light our way for the rest of our lives.
Thank you, Ms Zhang, for everything! We will miss you.
