Hi Debora! I've read your essay and it's great! Here are the corrections for you to consider:-
Paragraph 1:
1) Sorry if you *have* received my letter only now, but I've been so busy.
2) BeliEve it or not
3) I'd rather talk about (not 'to talk about')
4) The first time I went there
Paragraph 2:
5) Verona isn't as big as other cities (not the others cities - you are talking about cities in Italy in general!)
6) There's a lot to do and admire.
7) It's very famous because it is also called 'The city of love', thanks to Shakespeare's story 'Romeo and Juliet'.
8) The Arena *which* is very popular because they celebrate events and concerts there
9) Where you can find fashion shops *with* important brands.
10) In winter *it* is a bit cold, so you *won't* (will not) have problems.
11) I hope that I *have* helped you.
Well done for a great piece of writing, we can talk more about your errors together in class. Of course, ask me any questions you may have!
This part 3 style question is worth 15 marks in the exam, so is quite important! In a 100 word response you should try to use 3 paragraphs instead of 2. You've used a variety of grammatical structures and a range of vocabulary and your writing is very easy for the reader to follow. Although there are some mistakes, they generally don't distract the reader from the writing. I would give your answer 11/15. As I said, we will talk more in class.
Have a good weekend and relax!

For PET 6:30 - 8:30pm
Hello ladies! Here is a link to some information about the four types of conditional in English (written in Italian). As I said, there are 4: the zero, the first, the second and the third. Today we looked at the second conditional. We will study more about conditionals in the future. See the link below!
