Dear Mrs. Pintó,

I’m writing this letter to tell you my opinion about the high school.

I think there are some good aspects, but also a lot of negative aspects. I will begin with these last once’s.

I think that this school has too many rules. For example, some years ago the students from batxillerat could go home if there wasn’t a teacher. Why change this now? The same thing was with going to listen to the Christmas Concert. I think it wasn’t fair that we couldn’t go there.

Another thing that I have thought since I’m in this school: why aren’t there any mirrors in the toilets? I think that they aren’t very expensive and a lot of people would be much happier.

And the last thing: the computers. On the one hand, I agree that we must follow technology and that with computers and Internet there are many different ways to learn, and that’s good for the teachers and students.

But, on the other hand, I think that all this is too much. I don’t like that I must spend now a lot of time in front of the computer to do my homework ( essay, blogs, download my homework from internet pages…). And at school we shouldn’t forget the normal work: books, and not have PowerPoint’s in every class (looking at the screen all the time causes me headache…).

I’m interesting about your opinion of my letter.

Yours faithfully,

Lydia Penkert
