The course director of your previous college has invited you to attend a party for new students, and he has also asked you to give a talk about studying overseas. You have an important examination on the same day so you cannot attend the party. Write a letter to the director to apologize and to explain why you cannot attend the event. Suggest another date when you could give your talk.

✨ Do you want to improve your IELTS writing?
Dear Mr Smith, I would like to thank you that you invited me to attend an event with a new batch of students and I am writing
this
letter to inform you that it is difficult for me to visit in
this
party. I want to apologise in advance because I have a final exam for a dentistry course. You know that I am working hard for the
last
three years to achieve
this
goal.
Finally
, I passed two exams
this
year and
this
is the
last
interview which I have to pass to achieve my aim. It would be great if you could fix my meeting with these students next month on 25 March 2023. I will prepare my presentation after the final exam and I know
this
talk will definitely help students who are studying abroad. I will assist them with our college exam preparation pattern . I want to say sorry again for
this
inconvenience. I hope
this
will not affect our relationship. Looking forward to hearing from you. Yours sincerely, Nick Jones

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
  • even though
  • despite
