Task Response
In your essay, ensure to clearly address the prompt. While you provided reasons and effects related to individuals engaging in hobbies, note that the prompt asked for reasons why few people devote time to hobbies nowadays. Revisit the task and ensure your response closely matches the prompt to improve your score in task response.
Coherence and Cohesion
Use a wider range of linking words and phrases to connect ideas more smoothly. This can help with the coherence of your essay. For instance, instead of starting sentences with 'Secondly,' or 'In addition,' try using phrases like 'Moreover,' 'Consequently,' or 'As a result,' where appropriate.
Coherence and Cohesion
For coherence and cohesion, focus on creating a clear paragraph structure with a single main idea supported by examples or explanations. While your essay generally follows this structure, ensuring each paragraph has a clear topic sentence and follows logically from the previous can improve clarity and flow.

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.
