My view on virtual assistants
As online learning develops by leaps and bounds, virtual assistants gain increasing popularity among students. With their help, students will be able to update themselves with abundant knowledge.
For me, I am positive about virtual assistants for the following reasons. First, students can benefit more from personalized assistance provided by data driven virtual assistants. Second, students find it more convenient to take online courses held by virtual assistants. Last, AI courses cost students much less. However, students are supposed to enhance their self discipline when taking this kind of course due to the lack of face to face monitoring.

Dear Allen,
Hearing that you take a great interest in the Chinese calligraphy course, I am more than happy to share with you its relevant information.
It is a well known fact that Chinese calligraphy symbolizes traditional Chinese culture. Usually it requires a brush, paper and ink for one to practice calligraphy. It is expected that this course can not only enhance your aesthetic feelings but also cultivate your character, such as patience and concentration. As for beginners like you, it is recommended that you start off by practicing Kaishu because it preserves the essential characteristics of Chinese calligraphy.
Hope you may find my information useful. Looking forward to your reply.
