logical structure
Try to improve the structure of your letter by organizing your ideas more clearly. Begin with a proper introduction, followed by separate paragraphs for each main point, and conclude with a suitable closing statement.
single idea per paragraph
Ensure each paragraph focuses on a single idea. The first paragraph should introduce the topic, the second and third should expand on your main points, and the final paragraph should conclude the letter.
suitable writing tone
Maintain a more consistent and formal tone throughout your letter. Avoid colloquial language and ensure your reasons and suggestions are clearly stated and well-supported.
complete response
Provide more concrete examples and reasons why college might not be enjoyable and why a job could be beneficial. This will help strengthen your argument and make your advice more convincing.

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.
