Dear Ahmed,
I have a younger brother named Joseph who has a tendency to aggravate me. He will only leave you alone if you give him what he wants. I forgot to mention: you are coming to school with me. You might not learn much, though. I advise you sit with me, rather than Alex, Ben, or Maurice, because they can be just as aggravating as my younger brother! Our form teacher is Mrs. Tait. She can be very irritable if you forget your spelling book on Thursday or your sports kit on Monday and Wednesday, but she can be nice. The other teachers are also irritable if they aren't in a good mood. We will also go out after school. If you ever feel homesick, you are free to go home.
Love,
Oliver
