task response
To improve the task response, ensure that each aspect of the topic is addressed separately and comprehensively. You talked about your suitability and reasons for wanting the job but could elaborate more on additional skills or services you could offer to the family.
logical structure
Work on developing a clearer structure within your letter. Introduce each paragraph with a clear topic sentence, follow up with supporting details, and conclude the paragraph by reinforcing your initial point.
greeting and closing
Ensure you begin with a proper greeting, such as 'Dear [Name]' and conclude with a more formal closing, such as 'Yours faithfully,' followed by your name. This will enhance the overall professionalism of your letter.
single idea per paragraph
Maintain a single idea in each paragraph for better coherence. Expand on each idea with examples or detailed explanations to fully support the point being made.

The Greeting

Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.

Always start an informal letter in the ways:

  • Dear + name
  • Hi / Hello + name

‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.

For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:

  • Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
  • Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
