Dear Mr John, I'm writing to let you know that I will be on annual leave for 45 days starting next week.
Initially
, my plan was to go for 20 days only, as discussed.
However
, my son will undergo an operation so I need to extend my leave. Hope you consider my situation since my presence is essential for his recovery. Let me explain
further
. Despite being away from work, I will keep on following up with tasks and deadlines as usual. I can manage to work from home to ensure smooth workflow and safe practice during my absence.
Moreover
, I'll be available to attend to any phone calls and reply to text messages and emails as well.
Although
I will be closely monitoring the workflow, I suggest assigning Sarah to look over the place because she is capable of handling critical situations and is a great team leader.

task response
Ensure that the letter addresses all points in the prompt in a clear and concise manner.
coherence and cohesion
Use a more varied range of linking words and transitional phrases to improve the cohesion of the letter.

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.
