sentence structure
Try to use varied sentence structures to enhance clarity and readability. Some sentences may benefit from simplification or revision for smoother flow.
spelling and grammar
Pay attention to spelling and grammar to maintain professionalism in your letter. For example, 'tenents' should be 'tenants', 'stuydents' should be 'students', 'throufgout' should be 'throughout', and ensure proper use of spaces and punctuation.
specificity in request
Be explicit about the actions you'd like the landlord to take beyond 'reprimand them.' Suggesting specific measures can make your request clearer and more actionable.
clarity of problem
You have effectively communicated the main issue, providing clear details about the source of the noise and its impact on the residents.
tone
Your polite tone and constructive approach in addressing the issue with the landlord is appropriate and well-executed.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 150 words in writing task 1. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long letter will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 160 to 190 words in writing task 1. This will ensure a concise letter and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 20 minutes to write the letter and you need around 5 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long letter in 15 minutes.
