Grammar and Spelling
Remember to proofread your letter to catch and correct minor errors in grammar and spelling, such as 'missguidance' (misguidance), 'accidently' (accidentally), 'I done' (I had done/I did), and 'cancle' (cancel). An accurate use of language contributes to clarity and professionalism.
Coherence
Using time references and specifying locations helped in understanding the sequence of events, which is good practice. However, ensure a smoother transition between ideas for an even better flow.
Emotional Appeal
To strengthen your letter, you could explicitly mention your feelings about missing the flight and how it impacted you. This would make your argument more persuasive and provide a more complete response to the task.
Logical Structure
You provided a clear timeline of events, which made it easy to follow the sequence of events leading up to missing your flight.
Tone
Your letter has a suitable tone for communicating with the airline, striking a balance between formal and personally affected.
Conclusive Request
You concluded your letter with a clear request, which is a critical component of task achievement in this context.
Use a variety of complex and simple sentences
You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.
‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.
Examples:
I really want to study but I’m too tired.
I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.
If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
