One possible version:
Dear Jackson,
I'm more than delighted to share my opinion on whether you should go to study abroad.Frankly, I hold the view that it makes good sense to study abroad.The reasons are as follows.
To begin with, while we are studying abroad,being exposed to a foreign language setting makes the learning process engaging and effective.Moreover,bathed in a different culture of a foreign country,we can gain great insights into the world because cross-cultural experiences can give us a global perspective.Last but not least, studying abroad takes us out of our comfort zone and makes us better,which is the most important benefit from my perspective.
All things considered, I hope you can choose to study abroad and start a new life.
Yours,
Li Hua
