“Bonjour Mme Lucie,
J’ai une bonne nouvelle que je voudrais partager avec vous. Je suis allée chez le de ntiste (toujours avec le terminaison e?) et quand il a découvert que je me suis inscrite à Boréal, il a commencé à parler en français avec moi pendant mon traitement. J’ai compris tout et il m’a dit que mon français est bon (pour une anglophone). Il m’a félicité et m’a encourageé de (de? à?) parler plus et (?) suivre mon cours. Je suis très fière! Je vous remercie!!
