Task Achievement
To improve your task achievement, ensure that each part of the letter's prompt is addressed fully. While you mentioned the game's outcome and described the weather conditions, expanding more on how you felt about the match would provide a more balanced response.
Coherence & Cohesion
For better coherence and cohesion, work on organizing your ideas more clearly and transitioning smoothly between them. Using paragraphs effectively to separate different topics and employing a variety of linking words can enhance logical flow.
Coherence & Cohesion
To improve logical structure, try to plan your letter before writing. Each paragraph should introduce and develop a single main idea, which will make your letter easier to follow.
Coherence & Cohesion
Regarding the greeting and close, ensure your letter feels complete by starting with a more personalized greeting and ending with a well-wishing close that matches the informal tone of your letter.
Task Achievement
In terms of the suitable writing tone, your letter is appropriately informal, which fits the context of writing to a friend. You can enhance this by using expressions that convey empathy and support, recognizing your friend's absence more significantly.

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.
