Anglika and other moderators, please help me!
Check my 3rd letter please. (Sorry if I made a lot of mistakes)

Thanks guys!


Dear Will Peterson,

Once again, thanks for replying to my last letter.

First, thanks for telling me everything. Now, I'm knowing more about the arts faculty.

Second, I'm sure that my english will definitely improve within [a year/years]

I'm very happy to hear that there are quite number of international students, hence we can share our abilities and experience.

Anyway, I'm taking the foundation course next week, so i should study well and be prepared.

Is it okay for you that both of us are sending mails?

In addition, I'm glad to see you that you can speak bahasa very little. I really appriciate it.


I'm looking forward for you response.
Thanks.


Regards,

Tom

Note:
"I'm glad to see you that you can speak bahasa very little" means you are glad the person can't speak much bahasa. That is why Anglika suggested a change to "I'm glad you can speak a little bahasa".
