Dear Stephen,

I am writing to tell you about my problem with my teacher. I don’t know how to deal with it and would like your help.

You know I am crazy about space travel. In my spare time I often go to the library to find something to read. This makes my teacher very angry. To him, good marks are everything and I should spend more time on my lessons, even at weekends.

I think healthy hobbies are helpful for our studies. If I can achieve a balance between my schoolwork and my hobby, it will be of great value to my future development. But I don’t think my teacher understands me. I feel bad about that.

What shall I do? Can you offer me some suggestions? I am looking forward to your early reply.

Best wishes
