Begin your letter as follows: Dear..., You should write at least 150 words.
Dear Mark,
Hope you're doing great. I'm so happy to hear that you've been considering taking up a driving course.
Believe me, having a driving licence has a lot of benefits.
For example
, you can buy a car and go whenever you want. I mean, you won't have to use public transportation, which is far less convenient, as people usually spend time waiting for a bus. Besides
, you can be very flexible and go outside the city for a picnic with your family or friends. Imagine, we can go to the river together, take all the necessary picnic equipment and have fun.
By the way, my sister completed a driving course last
month. She was quite satisfied with her school, so I can recommend it to you. Its name is "Drive your Dreams" and it is located just in front of our local hospital.
If I were you, I would watch theory videos online,as many people find them very helpful. As far as I know, there are also
a lot of mobile apps you can download and practise exam tests online. If you need a car, feel free to tell me, because my dad can help you with driving outside our village house. There are no people there, so it will be very comfortable.
Wish you good luck!
Love,
