Dear Cathy,
I'm sorry that you have so many problems.I know your feelings and here is my advice for you.
To begin with, you say you are so shy that you don't have many friends at school.l think you should join some clubs and make new friends there. What’s more，math is very important. In my opinion，you’d better ask the teacher or your classmates for help and do more math exercises.Then you'll make much progress in it.Last but not the least,if it 's not easy to talk to your parents, why not open your heart to them and tell them how you feel l 'm sure they 'll understand you.
In this way,I believe you will feel better and you can enjoy the colorful life.
Yours,
Cathy

Nowadays, it's common to take after-school classes. In my opinion,students should take after-school classes so that they can be more excellent.
First, it can help students study better. Sometimes we may forget what we learned in class. After-school classes can help us study them again. Second, students can study more by taking after-school classes.Many after-school classes train childern's special skills. At last, It's a good way for children to improve their grades as quickly as possible.
In a word, I think it's useful for children to take after-school classes.because as the saying goes “Practice makes perfect!”
Post-writing
Sample
Nowadays, it's common to take after-school classes. But I don't think children should take after-school classes. Let me tell you my reasons.
First, most parents hope that their children can improve their grades by taking after-school classes, but they don't realize their children can get good grades by listening to the teacher carefully in class and finding a good way of learning.What's more, I think children's health and happiness are more important. So I don't think parents should push their children so hard. Finally, children need enough time to relax, because they already have much stress at school.
All in all, to be a successful person, I believe how to learn and how to be a happy learner are more important than taking after-school classes.
