greeting and closing
Ensure the letter has a clear structure with an appropriate opening and closing. Use phrases like 'Dear Accommodation Officer' to start and 'Yours faithfully' (if the name is unknown) or 'Yours sincerely' (if the name is known) to end the letter.
logical structure
Use cohesive devices to better connect ideas and paragraphs, such as 'Firstly, Secondly, In addition, Consequently' to give the letter a more logical flow.
single idea per paragraph
Maintain one idea per paragraph and expand on it for coherence. Each problem should be clearly outlined in a separate paragraph with an explanation.
complete response
Fully address all aspects of the task by providing detailed descriptions of the issues, clear explanations of why they are problematic, and a concise statement of the preferred accommodation.
suitable writing tone
Match the tone to the formality of the letter. Maintain a respectful and formal tone throughout, avoiding colloquial language.

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.
