The Greeting

Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.

Always start an informal letter in the ways:

Dear + name
Hi / Hello + name

‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.

For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:

Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.

The teenage stage of a person’s life knows no bounds and brings pure joy, while adulthood offers freedom, a sense of fulfilment and achievement. Thus, some people deem adolescence the happiest part of life, while others argue that maturity is more enjoyable. Both teenage and grown-up times can be idiosyncratic and full of blessings for certain people. Personally speaking, the happiest times of life may differ from person to person.

some students decide to take a gap year, what is your opinion?
The prevailing sentiment among students is that taking a gap year between completing school and starting college or university can be highly beneficial. This growing trend, while met with both praise and skepticism, presents a myriad of opportunities for personal growth and exploration. In my view, when utilized effectively, a break from studying can offer invaluable experiences that outweigh any potential drawbacks. Therefore, I firmly believe that this period of self-discovery and enrichment can be a transformative and enriching chapter in a young person's life.
