Dear Nam,
I am very glad to hear you are well. Now I am studying very hard at school. I still remember 3 months ago, I was very bad at English, every test I did at school had low mark. I was very self-deprecating at that time. But since you helped me, my English has improved so much. You knew that I studied so bad but you didn't mind helping me. Now I can doing English test by myself and have high marks. I am very greatful to you. And in order to thank you for your help, I invite you to come to my house next week, I will take you to the restaurant and we will have a meal together.
Hope you to come. Thanks for your help
