Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing
this
 letter to put my resignation.
Firstly
, thank you so much for giving me
this
 opportunity to work with you. I have been with your organization for the past 5 years, and during my tenure, I have learned different skills. I was working as a Software Engineer under Sandeep. But unfortunately, I have to leave the company to pursue higher studies in Canada. I was preparing for the IELTS exams for quite some time, and I cleared the exam
last
 week. Since I have the working experience, the skill set will help me in my master's. After completing my master's, which is 2 years long, I am planning to join the banking sector in Canada. There are a lot of good opportunities for postgraduates in the country. They normally prefer students who have graduated from there. I hope our paths cross again. Keep in touch. Yours faithfully, Neha

task achievement
The tone is professional and respectful, suitable for a resignation letter.

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.
