Explanation:

Here, I made up a short conversation between a student and his Spanish teacher following the requirements from the activity, also maintaining formality in the conversation.

In Spanish, we speak in a formal manner when addressing older people, or people we are not familiar with as a sign of respect, and we use the pronoun Usted.

Estudiante: Buenos días, me gustaría presentarme, mi nombre es Juan. Como se llama usted?

(Student: Good morning, I would like to introduce myself, mi name is Juan. What is your name?)

Profesor: Encantado de conocerlo Juan. Mi nombre es Martín

(Teacher: Pleased to meet you Juan. My name is Martín)

Estudiante: Mucho gusto profesor Martín, encantado de conocerlo también.

(Student: It's a pleasure teacher Martin, nice to meet you too.)

Profesor: Su español es muy bueno

(Teacher: Your Spanish is very good)

Estudiante: Gracias, espero seguir mejorando mucho mi español en sus clases. Adiós, y que tenga muy buen día.

(Student: Thank you, I hope to continue improving my Spanish in your classes. Goodbye and have a great day)

Profesor: Adiós, que tenga buen día también

(Teacher: Goodbye, have a nice day as well)
