Hi ! robinson it's a good writing, I consider that it would be better if you check some things:

-Capital letter

- Puntuation marks

- And use some connectors

Hi man, I accept... It is hard but I'm going to do it of the best form, because I have freetime, too, you need someone who is careful (as me) and the reward is very very GOOD.

I wait your next instructions and I am going to buy the soap for take a shower all your strange pets...

Ok, goodbye.

Hi, Robinson, how are you?

I wait you are fine. I write you because I have a problem with my book of level 3: I don't find it.

Do you mind if I borrow your book? I need to see some things about strategies for keeping the job.

I wonder if I could use your book for a week and pick it up tonight.

oh Man I forgot to comment you other favor, I won tickets for seeing the match Colombia- Peru in Bogota, but I can't go to receive it. Would you mind going by the tickets?

I wait your answer, Thanks Man.
