coherence cohesion
To enhance the logical structure of your letter, ensure that each paragraph follows a logical sequence, introducing the problem, describing the issue, and asking for help clearly. Transition sentences can help create a smoother flow.
greeting and closing
Your greeting and closing are appropriate for the semi-formal tone of the letter to an IT specialist. However, ensure consistency in tone throughout the letter.
single idea per paragraph
Try to stick to one idea per paragraph. Begin with introducing the purpose of your letter, follow up with a detailed explanation of the problem, and conclude with a clear request for help. This will make your letter easier to follow.
complete response
To complete the task more effectively, ensure that you provide all the necessary information about the computer that could help the IT specialist diagnose the problem, such as the model, operating system, and any error messages you might have received.
suitable writing tone
While your writing tone is generally suitable, aiming for a more consistently formal tone could improve your letter. This includes avoiding colloquial phrases and maintaining a professional language throughout.

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.
