coherence cohesion
Try to divide your content into clearer paragraphs, each focusing on a single main idea. For example, one paragraph could solely describe the interesting part of the city, another for public transportation, and another for ways to meet people.
task achievement
You can improve the letter by carefully proofreading the text to catch typos and language errors (e.g., 'recomendations' should be 'recommendations', 'residance' should be 'residence', 'thrases' should be 'trash').
task achievement
Your tone is friendly and helpful, which is suitable for writing to a friend.
task achievement
You provided a comprehensive response to all parts of the task, giving suggestions on where to live, describing public transportation, and explaining how to meet new people.
coherence cohesion
Your opening and closing statements create a warm and engaging impression.

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.
