Hello! My name is Alex. I’m 20 years old. I live in France. I study here. I study medicine because I want to be a doctor and help people. I need to be hard-working. Sometimes I wake up very early and I don’t sleep much but I love studying! When I have free time, I play basketball with friends or dance.

I live with my brother Max, he is 18 and he learns French at university. He reads a lot of books, writes and translates texts.My brother cooks food for us, he is very good at it! Max is artistic, he plays the guitar and sings. He cannot play the violin but he wants to learn. He paints well, too. It is nice to live with Max because we are not bored and we can talk.

We have a puppy. His name is Baxter. He is very funny! He plays with us every evening when we are at home. Max usually goes out with Baxter. Baxter is very clever, he listens to what we say. He can’t speak English but sometimes we understand him.

…at university. [This is British usage. Americans always say ‘at the/a university’.]

I hope that you don’t mind my having made the verb contractions. Conversational English always contracts unless we wish to emphasize.
