coherence cohesion
Begin with a more formal opening and clearly outline the purpose of your letter. Each paragraph should present one main idea clearly.
task achievement
You should fully develop your explanation about why you wish to spend six months at the head office and clarify how exactly your work can be managed in your absence, as this information is key to fully achieving the task.

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.
