I don’t receive any traditional letters these days. All I receive and send are short e-mails to relatives and close friends. But about two months ago my friend, Mohan wrote a four-page letter to me. It was a very pleasant surprise to receive that letter Actually, Mohan went last year to pursue his higher education in Canada. He got 7 bands in IELTS and he went to Humber College to do a course in Business Management. Actually, in that letter he persuaded me to take the IELTS test and join him in Canada. He wrote in depth about his life there. It took him two months to get adjusted to the new atmosphere in Canada. Initially he faced a lot of problems. He is a pure vegetarian and he wrote that veg. food outlets were very few near where he lived. He wrote that students are allowed to work 20 hours a week. In this way they can earn for their living expenses. He tried finding some part time jobs but the other new students were smarter than him and by the time he actively started searching for a job, all the good jobs were gone. Then, after two months, by a stroke of luck he got a job in the college library. It is a data entry job and he can study also when he gets time. He wrote that after getting this job he heaved a sigh of relief. Now he is very comfortable and is making enough money to meet his overhead expenses. The education system in Canada is also very good. He wrote that he was in the good books of his teachers and was getting good grades in exams. Mohan has a beautiful handwriting and this letter is full of his love for me. I have read and re-read his letter several times. This letter is important because after receiving this letter I decided to take my IELTS and this letter is the reason that I am here in front of you today for my IELTS speaking test.
