Ensure your letter has a clear logical structure by organizing ideas into separate paragraphs with clear topic sentences. Avoid mixing ideas within paragraphs.
coherence cohesion
Use a variety of linking words and phrases to connect ideas and sentences more naturally, and to enhance the flow of your letter.
coherence cohesion
Start with a friendly opening and finish with an appropriate closing. Adjust the format to include a warmer greeting and a more polished closing.
task achievement
Ensure you address all parts of the task equally and develop each point fully. You should spend more time explaining why you have the time off and elaborating on the proposed activities.
task achievement
The tone should remain consistent and appropriate for communicating with a friend. Maintain a friendly and personal tone throughout the 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.
