You live in a room in college which you share with another student. However, there are many problems with this arrangement and you find it very difficult to work. Write a letter to the accommodation officer at the college. In the letter, • describe the situation • explain your problems and why it is difficult to work • say what kind of accommodation you would prefer

Dear Sir, I write to inform you of the situation of things in my
apartment
, how
this
is affecting my productivity in school and the accommodation I would prefer to stay in.
First,
my flatmate is a totally different person from me and I respect our differences as individuals.
However
, she has a lot of friends who come around every day after classes to visit her before going to their own
apartment
.
This
disturbs my privacy.
For example
, whenever I want to serve a siesta at home before going into the library, I am not able to rest
due to
the noise that comes from her friends' conversations. She is
also
an untidy individual, which makes living with her more difficult to work.
In addition
, all these affect my productivity because I find it difficult to rest well in my accommodation thereby affecting my productivity level in school.
Also
, living in an untidy environment is not hygienic for any individual and can cause illness and diseases. In conclusion, to prevent misunderstanding I will like to change my room to a single room with a bathroom and kitchen, a studio
apartment
. Please let me know the procedure for changing my
apartment
. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours Faithfully, Mariam Omole

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.
