greeting and closing
Ensure that the greeting is formal and appropriate for the context of writing to a bank manager. Utilizing 'Dear Bank Manager' would be more suitable than 'Dear Manager' in this scenario.
task achievement
Maintain a formal tone throughout the letter. Phrases such as 'Trust this letter meets you well?' are informal and better suited for personal correspondence, not a letter to a bank manager.
task achievement
The explanation about the missing credit card could be more concise. Avoid unnecessary flattery or commentary about the bank's effort in order to maintain focus on the issue at hand.
coherence and cohesion
Ensure that each paragraph presents a distinct point. Separate the explanation, suggestion, and question into individual paragraphs to enhance readability and coherence.
Structure your letter
A letter needs to be written using a proper format, including the following:
- A greeting (Dear sir/madam, Dear John, Dear Mr. Smith)
- The main body (consisting of paragraphs for each part of the letter)
- A closing (Yours sincerely, Yours faithfully, Best wishes, Kind regards, Love)
When writing a letter as part of the IELTS General Training Writing Task 1, it is important to include the bullet points presented to you in the question.
All three bullet points need to be presented. And remember that some bullet points contain more than one element. So, make sure to watch for ‘and’ and plurals.
