Writing

Write a letter to an English friend telling him/her about how you have spent this school year.
You can tell about :
(School, teachers, classmates, subjects, exams…)

Dear Josh,
I am so sorry I did not write to you yet. I have been busy with my regional exam. Anyway, I am writing to tell you about my school year.
First, I want to describe my new school. By the way, I forget to tell you that I changed the school. My parents moved. So I was forced to find another one. In any case, my new school is great. It is bigger than my old one. Moreover, I had new classmates who were kind and very loyal. All during the year, they made me integrate their group. They gave me help in my studies. Furthermore, teachers, this year, were exceptional. I like them very much. They were patient, communicative and very helpful. However, exams that they were giving us were difficult. In addition, they marked us severely. Nevertheless, at the end, all those things helped me to get excellent marks at the regional exams.
Now what about you? How do you spend your first year at university?
Write me as soon as possible.
Your friend

Help me please to find out my mistakes...

Dear Josh,
I am so sorry I did not write to you yet ( It may sound more natural to write: I am sorry that I haven't had the oportunity to write sooner). I have been busy with my regional exam. Anyway, I am writing to tell you about my school year.
First, I want to describe my new school. By the way, I forget to tell you that I changed schools. My parents movedso I was forced to find another one. In any case, my new school is great. It is bigger than my old one. Moreover, my new classmates who were kind and very loyal. Throughout the year they made me feel welcome. They gave me help(They helped me) in my studies. Furthermore, teachers, this year, were exceptional. I liked them very much. They were patient, communicative and very helpful. However, exams that they gave us were difficult. In addition, they were tough graders. Nevertheless, in the end, all those things helped me to get excellent marks at the regional exams.
Now what about you? How do you spend your first year at university?
Write me as soon as possible.

Tiy made no real mistakes. I included some stylistic changes that made your writing seem more natural. Beware of mixing tenses in that same paragraph if you intend to be serious about writing.
