Sample Answer

Dear Debra,

Thanks for your last letter. I’m glad to hear you’ve taken up a sport. Here’s my advice for your problem.

To improve your performance, I suggest you practice on your own for a while. If you spend some time at the weekend making shots with the ball, this will help you during the game.

For me, I prefer individual sports, like athletics and running. I don’t like playing in a team, so this suits me better. I spend about an hour each day doing sport. I’d like more time, but I have lots of homework to do!

Let me know how things go with your basketball practice!

Bye for now,

Anna
