 attention that I am not able to do voluntary work at Vinnies Shop from next week on the 15 of June. Let me start by saying that I have been working as a sales attendant for two years and have had a pleasant time with the team.
In addition
, I have brought exceptional customer service and offered new promotions to the customers. Despite the great customer service that I bring, I received an employment offer from Apple. After I checked the contract, I decided to start with them because it is one of the most remarkable companies around the globe.
This
 passion for bringing support to others is with my family.
Due to
this
 reason, I can refer my sister who is looking for an opportunity to support our community and she is able to start next week during the morning and afternoon at the weekend. I consider that she has a lot of skills to bring to the non-profit business. I hope you will take
this
 into consideration and please do not hesitate to contact me to discuss

. Yours faithfully, Claudia Patino

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.
