An English-speaking friend is coming to study in your town next year and has written asking for information and advice. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter: • Offer to find a place for him / her to live • Give advice about how to find a part-time job • Give information on where he / she can learn your language

Dear Sam, I am really excited that you have
finally
decided to study in Bangalore, India.
Although
, moving to another country must be really hectic but I can help you with that. You are most welcome to stay at my house until you find a place to say. Meanwhile, I know an apartment that will get empty around that time you come here. If you are interested, I can talk to the landlord. If not, I can help you to find places to move. While you are enrolled in the university, it is best you find part-time work that can help with your expenses. I would recommend you to use the university’s job portal website to keep an eye on the latest jobs.
Also
, you can attend online seminars about different ways to find and apply for work which is usually conducted by your placement centre.
Also
, the most important thing is that while you live here, you would need to learn the local language. If you want to survive here you need to learn
this
language. It might be a bit hard to learn it at
first
but
then
it will get easy. Is it really hard to learn a new language? You can take
this
class in your institution itself. All the best for your studies. Looking forward to meeting you soon. With Kind Regards, Tejas

Use cohesive linking words accurately and appropriately

Linking words are very important in your essay.

To score effectively on your IELTS exam, you should make an effort to implement short concise sentences coupled with linking words.

Almost every sentence in your essay should have a linking word of some sort.

In fact, the only sentences that can omit linking words are your background sentence and thesis.

Linking word examples:

  • firstly
  • secondly
  • thirdly
  • in additional
  • moreover
  • also
  • for example
  • for instance
  • therefore
  • however
  • although
