coherence cohesion
Your letter should follow a clear structure with an appropriate opening and closing salutation, an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion. Aim for clarity and ensure each paragraph maintains focus on a single idea.
task achievement
For task achievement, provide more details about the circumstances of your situation, including specifics about why you were ill and how it affected your ability to complete the project. Also, include a specific request for an extended deadline rather than a vague request for more time, and express your commitment to completing the project as soon as possible.
task achievement
Make sure to use an appropriate tone for a formal letter. This includes avoiding casual language and phrases that may seem too informal for communication with an academic institution.
task achievement
Double-check your grammar, vocabulary, and punctuation for accuracy. Also, if you have any evidence to support your reasons for requesting an extension (such as a doctor's note), mention that you can provide this if necessary.

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.
