Coherence & Cohesion
Ensure to use a variety of sentence structures and linkers to enhance the flow of your letter. For instance, you could diversify your connectors beyond 'but,' 'and,' 'so,' to include others such as 'therefore,' 'meanwhile,' 'consequently,' etc., to improve readability and cohesion.
Task Achievement
Try to provide more specific details about the meeting or suggest a specific plan for the alternative meeting with your friend. This would enhance the completeness of your response and show a greater range of language ability.
Task Achievement
Pay attention to minor grammatical and spelling errors to ensure clarity and professionalism in your writing. For example, 'reagarding' should be 'regarding', and 'becuase' should be 'because'. Proofreading your letter could avoid these mistakes.
Task Achievement
Sign off your letter with a closing appropriate to the tone and relationship to the recipient. The sign-off 'Yours Faithfully' is more formal and typically used when you do not know the person. Since this letter is to a friend, 'Warm regards' or 'Best wishes,' followed by your first name, would be more suitable.
The Closing
The style of the letter determine how you have to close it.
Check out the suggested closing sentences for each type of letter in the General IELTS Test. The closing sentence should be the last sentence of your letter.
Formal style (To someone you have not met, whose name you don’t know)
- Yours faithfully,
Semi-formal (To someone you may or may not have met, whose last name you know)
- Yours sincerely,
Informal (To someone you know well, whose first name you know and use)
- Best regards,
- Warm wishes,
