给校长的一封信用英语怎么写（实用20篇）

Dear teacher x

Hello!

The new year is coming. First of all, Id like to give you a new years

greeting: I wish you good health and all the best!

In the past semester, you have worked hard for us. We all thank you!

Teacher, you have made a lot of sweat for us. Today Im here to talk to you.

You are a good teacher who cares about students. I remember that in the

last semester, a classmate in my class had a fever. When the news reached your

ears, you took him to the clinic. Not only that, but also to him.

You are more nervous than us near the final exam, so we often have an extra

class after school to make up for it. Some students complain that the teacher

should not leave us, but you dont care what they say. Help the students who

dont understand from time to time and teach them solutions so that they can

understand. We will ask you for advice when we encounter problems that we cant,

and you will explain them to us patiently.

Here, I sincerely say: "teacher, you work hard!"

Ah! Dear teacher, you give your wisdom with love. I salute you silently

from my heart. There are poems to prove it

Ode to the gardener

Teacher, you are the beacon of learning sea,

We are sailing boats.

Three feet platform,

a poor but honest person.

You burn with passion,

We have built the students splendid achievements.

My alma mater is the cradle of dreams,

The teacher is the hand that weaves the cradle.

Teacher, you have worked hard,

You work hard and gain hope.

Hello, teacher,

You are the most romantic.

How well is the poem "sneaking into the night with the wind, moistening

things silently". Teacher, arent you just like the spring rain in poetry?

Working in obscurity, you have cultivated generations of pillars, but you dont

ask for any return. Teacher, arent you just like the hard gardener? After hard

work, you finally smell the fragrance of peach and plum. "When the silkworms

die, the silk will be exhausted, and the wax torch will become gray and the

tears will dry." this is your true portrayal; addition, subtraction,

multiplication and division can not count as your contribution; poems and songs

can not praise your admiration. Teacher, let me say to you again: "hard

work!"

I wish you:

Good health, happy holidays!

Your students

Dear teacher

Hello!

Im writing to you again. Its the new year. 2020 is coming and 2021 is

coming. Do you look forward to the holidays again and again, just like us? But

every time we go home, we are speeding up our separation.

Forgive the students for talking about such a sad topic in this jubilant

time. 2020 is the difference, it is tension, it is pressure, it is sentimental.

2020 will change a lot and take away a lot. It will take away our best three

years and the time we spend together. It passed, it will never come back,

leaving only memories. What is good as long as the heart is together, isnt it

even more painful when the heart is together but people are not around? It also

said that there was no emotion at that time, and it came true when you said that

you would walk away. However, the feelings between you and us have been deeply

rooted and can not be broken at all, so it is inevitable to be sad.

There is no feast that will never end. We have been together for three

years. Isnt it just a gift from God? Teacher, you should believe that it is

fate to meet us and good fortune to meet you. Over the past three years, we have

cried and laughed together. When we have to leave, we cant help but stir up

emotions. At this time, no one will feel superfluous. No ones heart is made of

iron. You should know that everyone has been remembering your good, your smile

and the way you stand behind the door in the past three years. Even if you are

angry, you will always come to the class unconsciously and take a look at us.

You are really worried.

But your worry is not in vain. Now, although some people have learned to

smoke, drink and make friends, those people are still grateful to you, but they

are not good at expressing themselves. In other words, Thanksgiving is like

"fruit of human body". Once it blooms in three thousand years and bears fruit in

four thousand years, its seeds are planted in my heart early. Although it grows

slowly, it has great power when it grows.

You said that in the self-study class, we dont study hard. We look at the

watch and glance at the teacher. We are so cute. But when you are looking at us,

we are also looking at you. Moreover, you look up and you always frighten

us.

The last excellent diary of this semester has changed. It is not happy and

naive, but full of sadness and maturity. In that class, everyone was thinking of

something in their hearts. It was from the heart and could not be covered up. It

was the most significant excellent diary ever.

I think there is no literary talent, like every excellent diary, everyone

will think hard about what to write. Even if they do, they cant write anything.

But now, writing this topic, everyone has a lot to say. As long as the heart, is

a good article.

Old wusky once described the scene of a year: when we came back one day and

wanted to see you, you had to call the guard and tell them to let us in before

we could enter the campus. Come to your class, not only you and me, but also a

group of students waiting to grow up like us at that time. Looking at them, I

think of myself. What happened in the New Glasgow is unfolding in front of us.

However, people are not those people anymore.

Its so sad. Old wusky is great.

At noon, I have been dreaming for half a day. In the dream, we have

graduated. All of a sudden, everything moves up, and the essence is condensed

into a small world. Its just in the air, playing everything weve been doing

for three years. When it disappeared, we all cried, and simply broke into the

small world. Everything in the small world has not changed at all, that is our

three years, but we can not touch it. We saw our performance at that time, so

proud. I saw you and wanted to talk to you, but you ignored me. I envy myself at

that time, tears stop in the eyes.

Teacher, how I wish that small world really exists! Teacher, the feelings

of the past three years are not clear. I cant find any words, a sentence to

describe our previous feelings, which only those of us who have experienced can

understand. But everyone wants to express, cherish and grasp.

Teacher, thank you! Thank you for your meticulous care when we are ill,

thank you for your restraint when we indulge, and thank you for the punishment

when we make mistakes. Each of us is a piece of white paper, you can sketch

everything on it. Thank you for sketching so many beautiful things, bitter and

sweet, let us have a good start.

Teacher, Im sorry, please forgive our treason. Every time we make a

mistake, you will say, "or a child?" this is to comfort us, but also to comfort

yourself. But we dont understand you. We always misunderstand you, blame you,

get angry with you, and dislike you all day. Its not good here and there. In

fact, we also know that you are indeed a good teacher.

Teacher, please forgive these children, please fall in love with these

children, please remember these children These children will never forget

you.

敬爱的校长：

您好!

我是三年级四班的学生，来咱们学校三年了，老师的教诲使我从一名自由散漫的学龄前儿童成长为一名“求真、感恩、知耻、砺行”的小学生，看着我们可爱的校园，我越来越喜欢它。

今天，我想给您提几点建议，希望您能在百忙之中予以关注。

我校的伙食品种少，口味单一。每天中午，同学们望着天天几乎一样的饭菜就提不起兴趣来。有的同学勉强将能吃的挑出来，有的同学索性将菜倒入垃圾桶。老师不让我们倒饭，可是大家觉得实在难以下咽。吃了这样的午饭，我们不一会儿就饿了，心里只想早点儿回家，快吃些零食。真希望您能关注这一问题，我们正在长身体，缺乏营养，一定会影响学习，而且我们知道浪费不好，真希望早日吃上可口的午饭。

我校图书馆和阅览室很少开放。我每次经过那里，总会停下脚步，趴在玻璃门上向里张望，不知那里有多少好书整天躺在书架上“睡大觉”，真可惜啊!希望您早日帮我们打开这扇通往知识宝库的大门。

校长，实验一小是我们共同学习、生活的地方，为了它更好的明天，我会更加努力学习，当好小主人。

祝您把我们的学校越办越好!

Dear Headmaster,

Im writing this letter simply to tell you something about the canteen

service in our school.Im the minister from the life department of the Students

Union.

In general, the service is satisfactory. The dishes look inviting and taste

delicious as well. The price of the meals is OK for us and the variety of dishes

changes every week.Whats more, the workers there treat us as their friends,

which makes us feel very happy.

However, we often have to stand in line for a long time before we can get

the meal. You could understand how precious time is to us students. Therefore,

may I suggest something be done to solve the problems such as the dish quality

and surroundings so that we can all enjoy our meals at school?

Thanks for your consideration.

Sincerely yours,

Li Ming

Today, I saw the notice on the blackboard under the school, this week

Saturday for the mid-term examination. Mother wants me to Chinese more than 90

points in the mid-term exam, math more than 95 points, I was very nervous.

Because only three days, so I want to read quickly review unit of one to four in

the morning. Because I must surpass mother request!

There was once a family, and they were all happy. Although they did not

have much money, the children still thought that working is the best!

In their country, lived a wise king, and you may guess, that this king was

proud and unkind; most people don’t like him, and so had driven him away through

the woods, and into a small boat, which they sent him away.

The king was not happy about this, and so went to see General Lord, to let

him help to win back his crown. And suppose, you may guess, that this proud king

had an evil Roman prince. It was already dawn and the sun was setting, General

Lord gave five horses to them; and told them to follow him. They galloped

further and further, until they came to a dark cave; curled with thick thorny

bushes, but this was no ordinary cave; oh no, this was a palace cave, which

lived the king of all animals.

And the king of all animals was nobody but the great tiger! Yikes! Most

people thought tigers weren’t very nice, but General Lord saw him years ago; and

they had been friends ever since. And so there was a pretty good chance General

Lord said, “Go in,” The proud king, and the selfish Queen; with their son, the

wicked Roman prince, entered the mouth of the cave. General Lord led them

inside, and there sat the big tiger. This tiger said, “Hello dear friends,”

“Ah!” cried the king, “A talking tiger!” “Of course,” said General Lord, “Kings

were supposed to learn everything.”

“Now,” said the tiger, “What can I do for you General Lord?” “I want a

party!” “A party?” asked the proud king, “I just want you to help me win back my

crown!” he shouted, “Yes,” said General Lord, “But a party could show your

people that you love them and care for them.”

The king accepted the offer of General Lord, and so took the party

decorations, and decorated the main hall, and then made the treats, and invited

all the people here, “What do you want proud king?” “I want to give you a party,

to say that I am sorry for all the bad deeds I have done.”

“It’s about time proud king. Ha!” and then the music began; they danced all

night, and sang. Everybody thought that the king just wanted them to give him

back; but they already realized that they had already made Milan the king. And

so they went to the palace, and told him that they wanted the old king back; and

that he should get off the throne.

Milan was very angry by these words, and so sent guards to arrest him. Just

then the old king approached, he knew that Milan loved to dance, and that he

couldn’t bear not to. He took the music box here, and began to dance. As he

said, Milan began to dance, and he pushed him aside; which allowed him to sit,

and that was how the old king became king again.”

各位中国民办教育行业的校长们：

多年前，因为一个理想、或是一个契机，你选择了办学。一路走来，在经历了种种成功与迷茫之后，你或许会觉得很累，会想退出;或是不想再那么“拼”，想安于现状。

书院很理解你的感受，但在这里，我们仍必须提醒你：一家学校，一个组织，不是一台挣钱的机器，尤其不是校长个人挣钱的工具。对于在这个组织中的成员来说，组织的运作方式，还是他们的生活方式，是他们人生的运行方式。如果他们在这里待的时间够长，他们要在这里完成很多的人生体验——成长、成就感、成功的喜悦，也会饱尝挫折、失败，然后从中提炼意义、发现自我、突破自我、完善自我。他们要在工作中不断开拓视野，和更多不同的人互动，去探索、去丰富，让自己的人生不断进入到新的阶段。同时也尽可能地从物质上、精神上改善自己和家人的生活。

因此，一家学校或者组织，应该是一个平台。校长作为这个平台的创建者和维护者，肩负着重要责任。你不再仅仅是通过这个学校或组织去实现自己的财务自由和理想，你还对这个组织中的成员有了一份责任——因为你造了这艘船，你邀请他们一起登上了这艘船，所以你不能由着自己，由着自己的懒惰、懈怠、畏惧、沮丧占据和控制自己，不能由着自己的消极和不作为，让这艘船随意停止，让这艘船上的人停止体验、停止提升，进入今日重复昨日、明日重复今日的无聊循环，扼杀他们在人生中的丰富可能性。

所以，校长不能逃避，企业家不能退缩，因为你肩负着更大的责任。你的人生宿命，就是带领大家，不断尝试新的可能，实践、失败、总结、再实践……在带领组织披荆斩棘前进的同时，拓宽组织成员的人生境界，也不断突破自己的极限。

你选择了这条路，所以你有义务为了信任你的人一直走下去。这是我们作为校长、作为领导者共同的使命!

dear teacher,

it has been a long time since i wrote the last letter. nowdays, people

write letters less and less, instead, they make a call or send a sms. however,

it is still a good way for us to communicate with each other by sending a

letter

its my honour to get the chance to write to you. "approachable" is my

first impression of you, because you always keeps smiling. students may fear the

teachers that are serious both in and out of class. smile makes a teacher

popular with his students, you are a teacher of this very kind.

you always arrive at the classroom ahead of any of the students, from which

we could imply that you are a diligent man with regular habit. before the class,

you like to talk to us, at this very time, you are more a friend than a teacher.

to be honest, i was surprised in the first class when i learned a teacher at

your age could speak english insuch a fluent way.(i didnt mean you are old,

youre young at heart.) moreover, you know well how to keep your class

attractive. youve got such an active mind that you can keep talking during the

whole class without a pause. i always appreciated your ideas and enjoyed

listening to you. in your class, i learned not only the writing skills but also

the presentation skills as well as much knowledge of other areas. thanks for

your excellent teaching.

ive got some suggestions for you. it seems that we students have got few

chances to participate in discussion during the class time. most of the time, we

are listening. seldom did we express our own ideas. i suggest that teachers

should interact with students more frequently in the class. besides, id like to

practice writing more, so would you please leave us more assignments?

happy new year.

with every good wish.

yours sincerely dali wang

evolution of modern apes, spent more than 100 in the forest at least ten

thousand years, can say that the human is the cradle of the green growing up

Youth Day (青年节) in the Peoples Republic of China is on May 4. It was

established in December 1949 by the Government Administration Council to

commemorate the beginning of the May Fourth Movement in 1919. This day is known

as …

May Fourth Movement

Chinese intellectual revolution and sociopolitical reform movement (1917 –

21)。 In 1915 young intellectuals inspired by Chen Duxiu began agitating for the

reform and strengthening of Chinese society through acceptance of Western

science, democracy, and schools of thought, one objective being to make China

strong enough to resist Western imperialism. On May 4, 1919, reformist zeal

found focus in a protest by Beijings students against the Versailles Peace

Conferences decision to transfer former German concessions in China to Japan.

After more than a month of demonstrations, strikes, and boycotts of Japanese

goods, the government gave way and refused to sign the peace treaty with

Germany. The movement spurred the successful reorganization of the Nationalist

Party and gave birth to the Chinese Communist Party. See also Treaty of

Versailles.

Many people like music. It has many sorts: soft music is graceful, rock

music fast, classical music GREat, light music relaxing, and children, music

exception.

My brother and I like pop songs, and my parents like to listen to soft

music. We are a musical family. Do you like music? Is your family full of music,

too? Music is really GREat! I like it very much.

I am Cendy. I am in Nanhai Experimental Primary School. I am in Class 9,

Grade 4. I am tall and thin. I live in Dali. I have many good friends. I often

play with them.

I have many hobbies, riding a bike, drawing pictures and reading books. But

I like to read books the best. Because of reading books is good for my study. I

also like riding bikes. Because of it does a lot of good to my body.

What’s your hobby? Can you tell me?

尊敬的李校长：

您好!

我是您的一名学生，在圣诞节即将来临之际，给您写这封信是为了表达同学们对您的和感激之情。

李校长，首先我代表同学们向您表示感谢!感谢您为我们筑起了窗明几净的南丰教学楼、建造了百花争艳的校内、铺设了地毯般的厚厚草地，美化了我们的学习，使我们的校园处处充满了诗情画意。

李校长，我对您的至理名言现在还记忆犹新，回答错了，不要紧!只要认真听课，大胆发言就好!同学们在您的之下，争先举手发言，一时课堂上高手如林;我也不甘示弱，抢着发言，和同学们比试谁更高手。在您耐心地引导下，通过争抢发言我惊奇地发现数学原来也是如此有趣，从此改变了我对数学的。

李校长，我记得您从不我们。那次，班上同学开小差，您既不打罚、也不、更不请家长;您只是悄悄地走到那位同学的背后，举起您的右手。而这一动作，开小差的同学却浑然不知。见您如此举动，全班同学都捂着嘴偷笑。等到那位同学回过神来，您才放下手，说：同学，你害我举手举得手都酸了，你看该怎么办吧?那同学顿时满脸通红，从此专心听课、积极发言。李校长，您的方法真高明。

李校长，您时常鼓励我们积极参加学校的各种竞赛，您说：要多参加竞赛，多自己，没有得名次不要紧!可以从头再来，哪里跌倒就从哪里爬起来;如果得了名次更好，我给你们发品!在您激励下，那年我们班硕果累累，大家快乐地过了个丰收年。

李校长，您还时常我们讲文明讲礼貌，而您更是身体力行。在您的下，同学们纷纷您博客中的《吝啬的谢谢》，并以此为镜，对照自己的行为。当我们走进校园，遇见您和老师们时，便会对您们真诚地说一声：老师，您好!

古人云：春蚕到死丝方尽，蜡炬成灰泪始干。

李校长，您就如同那平凡的蜡烛，燃烧了自己，了我们;您就像黑夜中的指，着我们远行的方向;您就像甘霖雨露，滋润着我们幼小心灵，哺育我们茁壮成长。

的李校长，我们班全体同学真诚盼望您能来我们班再上数学课，我们能在课堂上再次聆听您的!

I like rabbits. They are cute and beautiful. Their eyes are red and their tails are short. They like eating carrots and vegetables . I have one at home . It is in a small cage. I often play with it when I am free? ， but it does not listen to me . It looks unhappy . I think it doesn’t like living in the small cage . I think I will take it out to the field tomorrow. I will open the cage and let it run and jump in the open air freely.

Dear Mercy,

亲爱的梅斯，

How is everything going! Last time you said you are anxious now because you

find it hard to learn English well. Don’t worry. I think you have to improve

your English step by step. And I will right behind you. In my view, you should

develop you interest on English first. According to my experience, I think

watching English movie, listen to some wonderful English songs and talk in

English on the Internet would be helpful. Secondly, you have to prepare lessons

before class that will help you understand what the teacher says in the class. I

know you feel bored in the class, but you have force yourself to be

concentrated. A few days later you will feel it a little easy to learn English.

The left steps I will tell next time. By the way, we have not seen each other

since your family move to Hunan a year ago. Have you ever thought about going

back to visit me and learn English together in the coming Summer vacation.

Looking forward to your reply.

过得可好。上次你说你现在很焦虑因为你觉得很难学好英语。别担心。我觉得要提高英语你得一步步来。我会帮你的。在我看来，首先应该要培养你对英语的兴趣。根据我的经验，我认为看英文电影，听美妙的英文歌曲以及在互联网上与他人用英语交流会有很大的帮助。其次，你要预习，这样可以让你理解老师在课堂上说的东西。我知道你觉得上英语课很无聊，但你必须强迫自己聚精会神的听。一段时间后，你会感觉到学习英语变得容易些了。剩下的步骤下一次我会告诉你的。顺便提一下，自从一年前你们家搬到湖南后我们就没见过面。你有没有想过暑假的时候回来看看我，我们可以一起学习英语。期待你的回复。

Best wishes,

I have a good friend.Her name is Tang Qing.She comes from China.And now she

lives in Shandong with her parents.She is a student in Class One, Grade

Seven.She is a good student at school.We often write e-mails on weekend.Do you

like her?

Now I have already told you a story about an old man that thought he knew

everything, and had been asked a hard question to answer by the king’s

professor; and had been crowned king. Well in this story, I am going to tell you

how the old man got back to thinking he knew everything, and was asked another

hard question by the king’s professor.

It all happened that one day, when the professor was feeling sick, the old

man happened to be on the stage. Now he had a throne too, but not as fancy as

the professor’s. And so he decided to sit on it. When other people are standing

in line to ask for questions, the old man said, “The professor has quit, and so

I shall rule this stage and this kingdom!”

All the people gave him a slow clap, and at last began to ask questions.

Two more days passed and the professor got better, and walked to the stage. But

he found that on his throne was the old man. “Ah! Professor!” shouted the old

man in an angry tune, “You quit! I heard you say that a week ago!” “I said that

I was going to quit about two days because I was sick,” explained the professor

smiling.

“I think I should be king rather than you!” shouted the old man, “Fine! I

shall ask you a hard question, if you could answer it; then you ask me one. But

if not, the guards shall make you my breakfast, next month!” “Deal,” said the

professor, still smiling. And so the hard question contest began.

First the old man asked, “What’s the answer of 1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1?” “That’s

easy,” said the professor, and he wrote it on a paper. When he is finished, he

handed the paper over to the old man; it said, “If you want to find the answer,

you said eight 1. All you have to do is use multiplication to find the answer:

8﹡1.” The old man was astonished, “Your right!” he shouted; “Now you ask me

one!” “1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1﹣1﹣1?” “Do you want to know the answer now?”

asked the man, “No,” said the man, “I just want to count how many ones did I

count?”
