Dear Sarah, I'm writing

this

letter because my English teacher

Mr.

Change the punctuation

Oliveira, has told me that you, like me, love to write letters and he thinks we could be friends. When he said it, I was so excited because nowadays, it is hard to find a penfriend. Let me introduce myself, my name is Raquel, I'm 19. I've been living here, in New York, since the college in account starts, so there are no more than four months. Before that, I only lived in Brazil and

this

is my

first

experience in a foreign country. I share an apartment with a Chinese girl, who

also

studies accountancy but in a different period than me. As I have no friends in

this

city yet, in my spare time I enjoy watching TV, making video calls to my family, and

also

cooking my own meal. I love carrot cake and pasta. I must confess that living away from my family has been a challenge. I have some curiosity about you, so please, tell me about you, whom do you live with? what do you like to do in your free time? And how frequently do you think we can exchange letters? I hope to hear from you soon. With love, Raquel.

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.
