Dear Harman, I hope
this
 letter finds you well. I am sorry for not making a contact with you since
last
 year.
This
 was mainly due to the reason that I deactivated my Instagram and Facebook due to my studies.
Moreover
, I lost your Whatsapp contact. You will be happy to hear that I have completed my Bachelors of Computer Science and now I am moving to Australia for higher studies.
In addition
, I have got admission to the University of Sydney for a Masters's in the same field. I am moving in
next
 month.
However
, I am facing a financial burden in managing all my expenses.
Although
 I have received a scholarship from the university that would pay half of my fees, the other half is still an issue for me.
Therefore
, I wish to do a part-time job along with my studies. I wish you could help me to find a job on time as I know that you have good contacts as you have been living in Sydney for the past five years. Take Care and I will see you soon. Best Regards, Aman

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.
