Hello :)
I need your help :)
a student of mine is searching for a penfriend... As she�s in a boarding school she can�t use the Internet very often... She wants to write "real" letters. Her level is pre-intermediate. She�s about 16 years old. She loves English.
Thanks
Delphine

Hi!
I�d love one of my pupils to do it too. She�s 12. Here is my email: [email protected]
I�ve been thinking to do it with a whole class. They are between 9 and 11. So, if you, or anybody, have more pupils...
Bye :) |

Hi!
I�ve been talking to my students about having penfriends and they loved the idea! But they are thinking about using the net. I can talk to them to see if any of them is interested in writing real letters. They are aged 12 to 15.

Hi Akanah!
As I said before my pupils are interested but they are learning Spanish as well. They are on their second year. But since portuguese and spanish are a bit similar, if we put them on contact they may correspond in a kind of spanish mixed portuguese  Bye |

Thank you all for your messages :) I really like this ESL community :) There�s always someone nice to help you
Maybe we can use the addresses of our schools? I can ask my student to prepare a letter in which she introduces herself and explains why she wants to have a penfriend... (I have to precise that I don�t teach her anymore because she�s in 5th form - I have younger students this year)
If you agree, can you please send me ([email protected]) an address that she can send her letter? In it she can give her own address.
I also have some beginner classes (13-15 years old) and they are really motivated to have penfriends :) At the moment we�re learning present simple tense and daily routines.
I hope we will be able to realize this project :)
Thanks a lot :)
