I'm really enjoying my new karate classes which I have two evenings a week.

LETTER
Dear Samantha,
How are you? I'm fine. First of all, I think it's a fantastic idea doing karate. I'm sure you are great at
it.
I don't think two evenings a week is too much. It's very important to do sport for your health.
If I were you, I would make a timetable to plan my time better. For example, you could do some of your
homework and studying at the weekend. Also, you could watch less TV and spend less time surfing the
internet.
I'm sure if you organise your life very carefully, you can continue going to your karate classes without
affecting your studies.
I'm looking forward to hearing from you again, (114 words)
