coherence cohesion
Ensure your letter has a clear introduction, body, and conclusion. The body should be divided into paragraphs, each focusing on a different aspect of the situation.
greeting and closing
Use a more refined closing salutation. 'Tank you' is a typo and 'latter' should be 'letter'. Consider using 'Thank you for your attention to this matter.'
task achievement
For better task achievement, ensure you describe the item in more detail in its own paragraph, detail how it was lost in another, and clearly state your expectation from the insurance company in the final section.
general
Check for spelling and grammatical errors. Use tools or ask for help with proofreading. Consistent errors can significantly affect the reader's perception and the overall professionalism of your letter.
Use cohesive linking words accurately and appropriately
Linking words are very important in your essay.
To score effectively on your IELTS exam, you should make an effort to implement short concise sentences coupled with linking words.
Almost every sentence in your essay should have a linking word of some sort.
In fact, the only sentences that can omit linking words are your background sentence and thesis.
Linking word examples:
- firstly
- secondly
- thirdly
- in additional
- moreover
- also
- for example
- for instance
- therefore
- however
- although
- even though
