Dear Joe, I'm writing about some points you have to consider travelling to Canada. I want you to buy 3 packages of pistachio and bring them with you. You can send me your account information to pay you the price or I can pay you in cash once you arrive here. I've booked 4 seats for a comedy show that will be held in Vancouver next month. I've been to
this
show once and it's really amazing. I have
also
rented a cottage in the suburbs and we will be staying there the first weekend you'll be here. Please don't forget to bring warm clothes and a proper pair of boots with you. The place we will be travelling to is cold. There is
also
a horse farm there and we will be riding horses there. So, boots and jackets will be required. Looking forward to seeing you soon, Regards, Mary

Use cohesive linking words accurately and appropriately

Linking words are very important in your essay.

To score effectively on your IELTS exam, you should make an effort to implement short concise sentences coupled with linking words.

Almost every sentence in your essay should have a linking word of some sort.

In fact, the only sentences that can omit linking words are your background sentence and thesis.

Linking word examples:

  • firstly
  • secondly
  • thirdly
  • in additional
  • moreover
  • also
  • for example
  • for instance
  • therefore
  • however
  • although
