✨ Do you want to improve your IELTS writing?

Dear Mr Harry, I am writing to you about the possibility of taking 12 days off work in order to complete my thesis and final exams for my Master’s degree in Finance from the University of Manchester. I am hoping that you would grant me leave from 17th July to 28th July 2020. I have almost finished my thesis, which I must submit to my teacher by July 24th. I need some time to completely finish it and to prepare for the upcoming exams.

I am asking for your permission to take time off work. I can assure you that I would check my emails daily, perhaps reply to some of them and be available for emergency phone calls from the office. Once I complete my exams and get back to the office, I would endeavour to come into the office earlier than usual and work Sundays in order to catch up on anything I had missed. I have already talked to Ethan and he is ready to share some of the responsibilities during my absence. I realise my temporary absence could be an inconvenience to you and the rest of the team, but I really need to take the leave to complete my Master’s degree qualification. I am looking forward to hearing from you and expecting your kind cooperation. Yours sincerely, Susanne Dvorak

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.

You should spend about 40 minutes on this task. Some people think that too much money has been spent looking after and repairing old buildings, so we should knock down old buildings and build modern ones instead. To what extent do you agree or disagree? You should write at least 250 words.
In many urban areas, the debate over whether to maintain aging buildings or replace them with modern constructions is intensifying. While some argue that the funds invested in old structures are excessive and advocate for modernization, I strongly believe that such spending is both necessary and beneficial. This essay will explore the significance of preserving historical buildings and why it merits continued investment.

In many countries children are engaged in some kind of paid work. Some people regard this as completely wrong, while others consider it as valuable work experience, important for learning and taking responsibility. What are your opinion on this?
Some individuals suppose that a young juvenile should be involved in work activities simultaneously with an education process in order to achieve new experiences and learn to be more independent from their parents. However, others disagree with this viewpoint and consider that this trend will have a negative effect on the young generation. This essay will attempt to investigate this issue from both sides, detrimental and beneficial, and provide my own point regarding this theme.

Do the disadvantages of global homogenization outweigh the advantages?
Global uniformity, the process by which cultures and societies become increasingly similar through expanded interactions, has become a prominent trend in recent years. This essay will contend that the drawbacks of global uniformity surpass its benefits. It will first illustrate how this phenomenon results in the erosion of cultural variety and the disappearance of unique traditions, followed by an exploration of how the primary advantage, particularly economic progress and streamlined interaction, fails to sufficiently offset the disadvantages.
