One possible version:
Hi Jim,
     Nice to read your e-mail today. I notice you've begun to pay much attention to Chinese learning.
     I found you are confused to the two words "逃课" and"淘课". The former means being absent from
some lectures that you need to attend and the latter means searching for some favorite lectures after class
so that you can get more knowledge you want to know.
     Nowadays, with many famous American universities giving their online lectures on the Interact, "淘课"
is becoming more and more popular in China. Many students can have the chance to attend their favorite
lectures given by the world-famous professors in their spare time. Besides, some white-collars don't need
to take some extra courses as usual. Instead, they can search for some useful online lectures to study,
which can help to improve themselves.
     Hope my explanations can help you and that you will make more progress in Chinese study.
                                                                                                                                          Yours,
                                                                                                                                          Li Ming
