 want to get to you, unfortunately, it is not possible right now. Grandma, I miss you so much especially the cakes you used to cook for me ,I miss our village, its gardens, its streets. One more thing, the reason I couldn't go is that there is an exam at our school right now to transfer from one course to another. I am getting ready for it. God willing the exams will be over next week and I will be with you soon. I will bring gifts for all my relatives. Dear grandmother, take care of yourself. See you soon, Yours faithfully Gulsanam

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.
