coherence
To enhance the structure of your letter, ensure each main point is clearly separated into distinct paragraphs. This helps readability and organization, making your arguments more compelling.
coherence
In your introduction, provide a little more context to the reader to make it engaging and ensure it flows naturally. It might be beneficial to relate your experience with driving personally to engage your friend further.
language
Avoid minor grammatical errors such as 'beneficial' (instead of 'benificial') and 'hassle' (instead of 'hassel'). This small attention to detail can significantly improve the overall impression.
task achievement
You have comprehensively covered the required points: explaining the advantages of a driving license, recommending a driving school, and providing extra tips. This thoroughness is excellent for task achievement.
task achievement
The tone of the letter is friendly and appropriate for the audience. Maintaining this informal yet informative tone suits the context well.
coherence
The greeting and closing are appropriately used, creating a personable and friendly communication with your friend.

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.
