coherence cohesion
Ensure that your letter follows a clear and logical structure. Most information is organized, but there could be clearer transitions between your ideas.
coherence cohesion
The greeting and closing of the letter are suitable, but using 'email' instead of 'letter' might not be consistent with the requested format. Maintain consistency throughout.
coherence cohesion
Each paragraph should focus on a single idea, and this has mostly been achieved. Ensure the topic sentence clearly states the paragraph's main idea.
task achievement
Your response completes the task, but be sure to develop each point fully. More detail could be provided about the friend's qualifications and experiences.
task achievement
The tone of the writing is suitable for the task, being appropriately formal for a recommendation letter. However, beware of minor slip-ups in tone consistency, especially in closings or casual expressions.

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.
