With Heartfelt Appreciation to Maria

Dear Maria,

As we often said, time truly flies. It is hard to believe that more than six years have already passed since we began discussing such a wide range of topics in English.

Our 30-minute conversations at 6:00 morning became an important part of my daily life. They were not only my morning routine, but also a source of energy, motivation, and inspiration that helped me begin each day positively.

What I learned from you goes far beyond English proficiency. Through your intelligence, thoughtfulness, warmth, and genuine care, you shared valuable life lessons and helped me develop a broader and more positive outlook on life. I have always deeply appreciated our intellectual and engaging conversations.

Although the time has come for us to pause our lessons, the time I spent learning from you will remain with me and will never be forgotten. I sincerely hope you make a full recovery and wish you and your family good health, happiness, and all the very best.

Thank you, Maria, for your wonderful teaching, encouragement, and kindness over all these years. I truly appreciate everything you have given me, and I look forward to seeing you again soon.

With sincere gratitude,
Changhwan.
