Dear Li Ming,
I know you are now having trouble (in )communicating with others, and you may often feel lonely. That’s because you are new here and people don’t know about you. But I think you can make it if you follow the advice below.
First, you should take an active part in the discussions and show your own opinions about the matters, and at the same time, learn to listen to other people’s views. Second, it’s better to learn about your classmates' likes and dislikes. Then you can have much in common with them. Thirdly, why not get to know more different people and show them you are also friendly.
Besides, I’m always ready to help you to join in some activities and I would like to introduce you to others. With time going on, people will know you better and like to make friends with you.
I hope you will find these ideas useful and get on well with your classmates soon.
Best regards
Zhang Hua。
