Coherence & Cohesion
Ensure your letter has a logical structure by arranging ideas clearly. Start with an introduction, then explain the issues, and conclude with the action you expect.
Coherence & Cohesion
Use appropriate paragraphing. Each paragraph should contain a single idea or point.
Coherence & Cohesion
Your greeting and closing are generally correct, but make sure to maintain a consistent level of formality throughout the letter.
Task Achievement
Complete the task by addressing all questions: describe the item accurately, detail the problems, and state clearly what resolution you want. Avoid vague statements.
Task Achievement
Use a more suitable writing tone for a formal letter. Avoid casual language and ensure you maintain formality throughout.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 150 words in writing task 1. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long letter will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 160 to 190 words in writing task 1. This will ensure a concise letter and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 20 minutes to write the letter and you need around 5 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long letter in 15 minutes.
