Dear Peter,

I am studying at a vocational school now. There are many different classes in our school. In the morning we study in the classroom. In the afternoon we have skill-training classes outside school. Some students work as cashiers in shops. Some work as tour guides and show the tourists around our city. We often go to hotels. Boys help people carry their bags and girls help keep the rooms clean. Sometimes we have classes in the factories. The workers there show us how to use modern machines. It’s quite interesting, though we feel a bit tired in the evening.

I’m happy at this school. I like it very much. Yours,

Susan
