Your essay is really nice! I've corrected a few things to make it just a little better :-)
A letter
Dear Danny,Thanks a lot for your last letter. Sorry for not having written earlier, I was really busy with my exams.
Well, we play football, basketball and tennis at PE lessons. My favourite sport is swimming. Actually I prefer individual sports because it is not comfortable for me to play in a team. Basically I do exercise every morning, go to the swimming pool twice a week and eat healthy food to stay fit.
I'm sorry but I need to go now, my mum asked me to help her with the washing up. Hope to hear from you soon
With love,
Nastya

1) Speaking of lessons, we use the preposition "at", whereas it is "in" in the case of classes :) At lessons, but in classes.
2) You might want to use "do" next to the verb in such a sentence when you need to stress something important or highlight the fact that you do really exercise (for example, in a conversation with someone who finds your words doubtful). However, it is possible both to use and skip the verb "do" in this sentence, so I wouldn't correct it here :)
3) As far as I know, we use "the" in a phrase like "to go to the swimming pool".
4) "Weak" means "poor", whereas "week" means a week :)
5) We eat healthy food to stay fit and we exercise to keep our body fit!
6) "Hope to hear from you soon" is a typical phrase we can end our letter with...
Hope it helps! :)
