Dear Mr Smith, I am extremely overwhelmed after receiving your letter regarding the
party
, which will be held on 25th June 2022. I am
also
very thankful to you for giving me
such
an amazing chance to meet newbies and give them small talk.
However
, unfortunately, my MPhil final paper will be on the same day. That's why I am unable to attend the
party
. I am writing
this
letter to apologize for not being able to be a part of
this
party
especially organized for newcomers because of M.Phil exam is on the same
date
.
Moreover
, I have to submit my final thesis paper on the exact same
date
which includes a presentation as well. I am very sorry for
this
inconvenience, but if you move
this
date
a little forward on 26 June 2022, I will surely attend the new student's
party
and will deliver a talk on overseas studies. If
this
date
is convenient for you please let me know at the same address above. I hope you will accept my apology. And I am
also
hoping that everyone one st the college is well. May your
party
will be a great success. Looking forward to
further
hearing from you. Yours faithfully Maham Alvi

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.

Linking word examples:

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