task response
Ensure to address all points in the task evenly; teaching method, number of students, and hours per week were mentioned, but more detail could be provided on each point
grammar & vocabulary
Pay attention to spelling and grammar; instead of 'sach,' use 'such,' 'quit' should be 'quite,' and 'there' should be 'their'. Also, be mindful of using formal language appropriate for a letter and avoid using contractions like 'I'm' or informal phrases.
coherence & cohesion
Start a new paragraph when introducing a new idea to increase readability; combine related ideas and keep paragraphs concise.
writing tone
Use a consistent tone throughout the letter. Although the tone is mostly appropriate, ensure not to shift between formal and informal language.

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.
