Try がんばって. It's a standard phrase and often translated as 'do your best'.

が
ん
ば
っ
て

The standard Japanese 'do your best'.


が
ん
ば
っ
て
ね

The cuter way of saying it, with 'ne' on the end, like 'do your best okay?' I hear females say it alot but men say it too I think. My opinion might be skewed just because I hear females say it a lot.


が
ん
ば
っ
て
く
だ
さ
い

A little more formal, 'do your best please'. I hear this from teachers, and it's commonly said from higher people to lower people, parents to children, etc.


が
ん
ば
れ

or

が
ん
ば
ろ

The imperative, heard during sporting events for example; 'do your best (goddamnit!)'

As said before, ぎんばって is your best option!

I hope you do well with it.

Also, remember to tell your teacher it is Japanese not Chinese.

っ
て
ね

Ｏｒ

が
ん
ば
っ
て

Tomii, bakakanadajin, I'm not sure how helpful a template that is using one horizontal line for each character is since, as I'm sure you know, it isn't quite the same as vertical writing. Specifically, the っ goes in the top right corner in vertical writing, not the bottom as in horizontal.

I don't think it will make that much difference with these characters, but you may also want to copy from handwritten examples of the characters.
Type "handwritten hiragana" into goggle for lots of examples.

That's a really good point, this isn't true vertical Japanese.
I didn't know there were other kinds of Japanese fonts either!
