My mother spent many evenings helping me with maths problems. She never got mad at my bad grades. Instead, she always encouraged me. She bought me more maths books and found online lessons to help me understand better.

Dear Mom,
I want to say thank you.
I had a really hard time with maths. I couldn’t solve the problems well. My grades were low, and I felt really unconfident. I was also very worried about the exams. I was scared my bad maths grades would stop me from getting into a good school.
But you helped me a lot. You spent many evenings helping me with maths problems. You never got mad at my bad grades. Instead, you always encouraged me. You bought me more maths books and found online lessons to help me understand better.
When you thought I needed more help, you took me to a tutor. You also talked with me a lot to make me feel less stressed and more confident. You said if I worked hard, I could solve my problems. Because of you, my maths got better and better.
Thank you for all your help. I love you.
Yours,
Liu Zhiwei
