Nima

Hello everyone. I want to use the following text in a written exam. Do you have any idea about the text?
I mean let me know if any sentence in the text needs any correction?

My cousin Nima lives in Roodsar. Roodsar is a coastal city in the east of Gilan. It is famous for its rice fields and beautiful beach. His parents are teachers. Nima is a student and he goes to school every weekday. He is a good student and he also can swim very well. In summer, Nima and his friends go to the beach and swim in the sea. That’s their favorite hobby. Nima’s sister, Maryam is a student too. She is also a good student. Maryam can work with a computer. She sometimes plays computer games as her hobby. Today Nima has a flu and cant go to school.He should stay at home and rest.
