coherence cohesion
In terms of logical structure, the letter should maintain a clear progression of ideas. The first paragraph successfully introduces the purpose of writing, but subsequent paragraphs could benefit from smoother transitions and better linkage of ideas.
coherence cohesion
For greeting and closing, using 'Hi' may be seen as informal for some examiners. Consider using 'Dear' for a more universally accepted greeting. The closing is polite, which is good.
coherence cohesion
Each paragraph should focus on one main idea. Ensure that when explaining your reasons for not writing earlier, you do so in a dedicated paragraph, separated from the invitation to India.
task achievement
Your letter accomplishes the task of thanking your friends for the photos, explaining your delayed response, and inviting them to visit. To enhance task achievement, provide more detail and development for each task item.
task achievement
The tone of your writing is casual and friendly, fitting the context of writing to friends. To improve, ensure that your language and expressions are consistently appropriate throughout the letter.

The Greeting

Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.

Always start an informal letter in the ways:

  • Dear + name
  • Hi / Hello + name

‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.

For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:

  • Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
  • Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
