Introduction & Tone
Ensure the introduction is concise and sets a clear purpose for the letter. Avoid unnecessary questions like 'How are you?' in a formal apology letter.
Logical Structure
Structure your paragraphs clearly. Start with the apology, then explain your absence, followed by your make-up proposal. Ensure each of these points is discussed separately for clarity.
Coherence & Cohesion
Use a variety of sentence structures and linkers to improve the flow of ideas. Phrases like 'I am writing to apologize...' followed by the reason can help in making your writing clearer.
Tone & Formality
Incorporate a formal tone when necessary, especially in apologies, and avoid informal phrases or slang. Address your friend by their name in the opening and use 'Dear [Name]' as a salutation.
Conclusion & Formality
Conclude your letter by summarizing your apology and reaffirming your proposed action to show that you are sorry. A formal sign-off, like 'Sincerely,' can also add a polished touch to your letter.

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.
