greeting and closing
Ensure the letter begins and ends appropriately for formal correspondence. Starting with 'Dear Sir or Madam,' is suitable, but consider a more formal closing statement than 'Best regards,' such as 'Yours faithfully,'
logical structure
The organization of your ideas can be improved. Make sure each paragraph has a clear focus. Begin with a paragraph explaining the purpose of the letter, follow with details about the problem, what was promised by the manager, and conclude with what you would like them to do.
single idea per paragraph
Keeping one idea per paragraph can immensely improve clarity. Separate the description of the problem, the interaction with the manager, and your expectations into different paragraphs.
complete response
To fully address the task, ensure that the letter clearly states the problem (central heating noise), what the manager said at the time, and specifically what compensation or action you expect (e.g., refund, apology). Include these details explicitly.
suitable writing tone
Use a tone that is appropriate for a formal letter. Avoid informal expressions and focus on polite, but firm requests for action. Phrases like 'to my surprise, unusual voice was coming out' could be replaced with 'I was disturbed by a loud noise from the central heating system.',

Structure your letter

A letter needs to be written using a proper format, including the following:

  • A greeting (Dear sir/madam, Dear John, Dear Mr. Smith)
  • The main body (consisting of paragraphs for each part of the letter)
  • A closing (Yours sincerely, Yours faithfully, Best wishes, Kind regards, Love)

When writing a letter as part of the IELTS General Training Writing Task 1, it is important to include the bullet points presented to you in the question.

All three bullet points need to be presented. And remember that some bullet points contain more than one element. So, make sure to watch for ‘and’ and plurals.
