Writing Tone
The letter begins directly, yet the tone used throughout could be improved for politeness and respect. Phrases such as 'I am writing to complain' could be softened to 'I am writing to express a concern'.
Writing Tone
Consider using more polite suggestions rather than direct instructions for your neighbor, e.g., instead of suggesting your neighbor 'get a new pet,' propose potential solutions like training the dog to reduce barking.
Logical Structure
The structure of the paragraphs could be more coherent by introducing, explaining, and concluding each point systematically. Each paragraph should ideally focus on one issue or suggestion for better clarity.
Writing Tone
A more formal tone and less direct language can help make the request more respectful. For instance, instead of 'you must get over it,' consider 'I understand how much your dog means to you, but we need to find a solution that works for everyone.'
Greeting and Closing
Closing the letter with 'Yours sincerely' is appropriate, but the introduction and body of the letter could use work to make the sentiment match the formal closing.
Single Idea per Paragraph
Each paragraph should ideally focus on a single idea to improve clarity and readability. For example, separating concerns about noise from concerns about safety can help organize the letter better.
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.
