Informal letter (CAE) Hello! What’s up, Lilla? I hope you’re doing great. I’ve received your last letter two weeks ago but I couldn’t answer you back because I’m trying to deal with my new supervisor. He sends me so much work everyday and I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed lately. I’m really happy for you! You’re seeing your dream coming true being accepted in that air hostess crew, aren’t you? I have a really good news to share with you also, I’ve been accepted in a photography training course in Amsterdam. I’m so excited! You know that creative activities aren’t my cup of tea but I met that guy I told you about in my tandem group and he’s a photography lover. So, he convinced me to give it a try and I absolutely love it! The thing is I had to buy a lot of accessories for the camera that cost me all my savings. A tripod, some lenses, a bag and a remote control. Luckily, I’ve also received a book and a free online course to practise that stood me up all night long. But I have nothing to complain about, I love the way I can express myself through photography and show people how I really see things. Well, I think is time to say goodbye. I’ll tell you more about this new hobby in my next letter when I’ve finished the course. Don’t forget to talk me back ASAP telling me more about your new job and how you are dealing with your customers and your life up in the air. See you soon, Best wishes. Naza

Hi, this is a great letter and has nothing an English-speak would have difficulty understanding and also conveys a casual/informal conversation. I personally wouldn't bother changing it, but, as you've submitted i've made some minor corrections around common usage.

1. Note that in UK-English, doing "Well" isn't a form we use, however its common in US-English.. its up to you.

2. I have received your last letter two weeks ago.. I have is recent past (continuous) rather than a one-off event. So I removed the "have"

3. sends vs gives is dependent on whether he sends you work in the post, or if you work in the same office and he hands you work either in person or via his secretary or someone

4. Added some more exclamation marks. Every time you make a statement of excitement, put an exclamation mark there instead of a full-stop/period

5. "good news" rather than "a good news" - you can also use "some good news" if you are implying that there is also some not-good news

5. Love your usage of "my cup of tea" - thumbs up

6. Ive used the ancient verb "to write", as i'm not sure what technology you're using mostly. This looks like an email and "write" is perfectly acceptable. Another phrase might be "get in touch, asap, about......"

As I say.. you're letter was great!

best regards
