Informal Letter / Email - Anna Sainz

Dear friend Amelia,

Frist of all sorry for taking so long to answer your letter, lately I’ve been busy with exams. You know that I’m too bad at maths and I need a lot of time to study, fortunately the exam goes well, so I’m proud of myself.

Responding to your letter, I think you should go to Australia to visit your brother, he’s always telling you he miss you a lot and want to see you soon. You can work as dancer, trainer next year. I’ve been thinking about it and in my opinion you should go on surprise, since he loves surprises and he would be so happy when he realize the surprise is you.

Please update me about everything soon and don’t forget to say hi to your parents for me, I miss them so much. I hope we can see each other soon.

Yours lovingly,

Anna

Hi Amelia,

It’s great to hear from you, I can’t believe how long it’s been since we last spoke!

Did I tell you that I’m dancing in the Dance quality team? It’s great, I have a lot of fun there and I’m also improving a lot, I hope you could came to see me this year, you will be impressed for my high level. The only bad thing is that I have to train a lots of days,  but that makes me better.

About your summer options, I believe that I will clearly have a favorite one, you should go to Australia. You’re brother can wait, but an opportunity that let you know a different culture and a lot of exotic things like kangaroos or koalas, maybe you won’t ever have one like that. I know that is hard to be so distanced with your brother but you must take that opportunity. In addition I would say that maybe you meet an Australian guy, maybe you fall in love and you finally stay there for the rest of your life, who knows...

All in all if you decide to go to Australia you should bring me a souvenir

Write soon!

Hi Amelia,

I have received your email, and I am glad you keep counting on me when you need advice or
help. I have been thinking what I would do in your place, and here is my opinion.

Personally, I think that you should do what you really want and feel that it's the best option for
you, and we both know that you are very excited about working as a dance coach. I know you
better that what you think, and if you are going to visit your brother as an obligation, because
you may feel that you have to do it or he would be mad, you are wrong. You have to take
advantage of your last teenage summers to enjoy them the most. In the future, you will have a
lot of time to be with your brother. I'm sure he will understand you. If you want to feel closer to
him, you can make video calls every night.

However, I will agree any of your decisions, and I will always support you don’t forget it. I feel
that, finally, anything you choose will be the correct option.
I miss you so much and I want to see you as soon as possible

Best wishes,
Andrea

Hello Amelia, 

Thank you for writing me about your controversy, first of all I’m happy to know that you are well, it’s good to know about you. According to your situation of your vacations, personally, I believe that the correct option is go to Australia to see your brother, he should miss you, so I consider that is the correct option. You can be teacher in other situations, do what you want but I think you have to see your brother. I hope to see you soon, we must see the new movie of star wars!!! Kisses.

Hi Amelia! I hope you’re well. I’m writing because I understand that it must be a difficult decision and it was in case my opinion could help you a little.

Well I think the holidays are for enjoying, and if I were you, I would go to Australia with your brother without thinking. But I understand that you’re thinking of staying to work to help your parents financially or simply to pay your extra expenses. Although you can really work at any time of the year and in summer take advantage to go to visit your brother and stay with him and your parents, and spend time with him and your family.

Another option, which I think would be the one I would choose, would be to do both things the same summer. For example, you can be working as a dancer teacher all July and so you earn a little money and you’re entertaining. And in August, when your parents have a vacation, go to Australia all month and spend it with your family. This way you don’t have to choose just one option and you’re distracted all summer.

In conclusion, what I would do would be both in the same summer, but whatever you do it will surely be a fantastic summer. And you know, if you need more help, here I am!

INFORMAL LETTER/E-MAIL (Marta Navarro)

Dear Amelia,

I'm glad to hear from you.

I know that you're in a difficult situation, so that's why I'm writing to you. As you know I will finish high-school next year so I don't know how I will spend my next summer.

Personally, I think that you should spend your summer going on holidays to Australia because you haven't seen your brother in a long time and you must miss him. In addition, you ought to know that in June is winter there because Australia is in the south hemisphere, so you won't be able to enjoy going to the beach.

Furthermore, I believe that you will catch up with your brother and you will have a very good time there. Don't forget to do sightseen on your holiday!

Enjoy your prom.

Take care,

Marta Navarro

Dear Amelia,

How are you? I haven’t heard from you for ages! It’s great to hear from you. I hope you do well in high-school.

I’ve been thinking about what you told me in your letter and I think I have the solution. Both are ideas that look great but you will have to choose sooner or later. If I were you I would choose to go to Australia to visit my brother.

How long since you’ve seen him? Besides if you go to Australia, it’s like you’re on holiday, because you can also visit the country, in my opinion. Anyway working as a dance trainer for children, is an activity you love, but honestly, you can dance wherever you want, but you can’t visit your brother always. 

In general, I want to tell you that it's your decision and you have to do what you like most, you know what is my decision.

Informal letter/E-mail JANA CONSUEGRA

Hi there,

It’s great to hear from you. I can’t believe it’s been a month since we last spoke and now you’re already planning your summer! 

You asked me for advice and I must say it ain’t an easy decision. Personally, I believe that choosing to work is definitely the best option. Even though it would probably be hard to follow a strict schedule, you must keep in mind that because you like it and you are absolutely good at it, it won’t be very difficult. In addition, you will earn your own money as well as gain job experience. 

All in all, I understand that going to see your brother could sound tempting. However, I feel that working as an instructor is far more indicated for you. Despite that, I am of the opinion that you should decide what you enjoy the most.

Let me know your decision.

Hugs,

Jana

Hello Amelia,

I hope that everything goes well, and that you finish the course with joy.

I have received your email, and I thought that I had to give you my opinion. I have seen that you have two very good proposals to make on your hollidays this year.

To start, I think that staying in the city working on what you like it’s a good idea, because you could earn a little bit of money. However, I think that what you should do is go to Australia to visit your brother, and to know and learn things from there. In my opinion it’s good to disconnect and enjoy getting to know other places that you may not have the opportunity to visit again.

I hope that my opinion has helped you to make the decision.

see you,

Mireia Tarragó

Hi Amelia,

How you doing? Hope y’all family are okay. Sorry about my delay, I’ve been disconnected for weeks but I hope I can help you anyways.

Personally, I think that both options are good but if I were you, I think you definitely should go to Australia with all the family. I think Australia it’s a beautiful place and very nice culture, you won’t have this opportunity once more. I understand the situation you’re having, I know you enjoy a lot training the kids, but you might understand that not always you are able to do this trips.

I hope I could help you, but anyways I insist that either are right decisions, don’t worry about it. Write me back when you decide it, hope to see you soon and enjoy whatever you choose.

Cheers mate.

Hi Amelia,

How are you? How are you spending your latest hours before holydays?

I think you should spend half of the summer working as a dance trainer for children and the

other half of the summer in Australia with your brother. If you cannot, you will have to choose

between them. I know you love dancing and working with children, but it is true that you love

your brother, too. However, you will see your brother after he finishes his job there and you

might not find another job that you love. Furthermore, if you work this summer, you will have

money for going to University. I believe that your brother will understand you!!

This is the end of this email, but remember: You must do whatever you want without counting

on the others people opinion.

Write soon,

Maria
