Excerpts and links may be used, provided that full and clear credit is given to Writing9 with appropriate and specific direction to the original content.

Task Achievement
Pay more attention to spelling and typing, such as minor errors like 'writithis' instead of 'writing this', 'reqched' instead of 'reached', 'caroused' instead of 'carousel', and 'jas' instead of 'it has' which can hinder readability.
Coherence and Cohesion
Ensure the letter follows a clear and logical structure. Your paragraphs contain single ideas but could be better organized for a smoother flow. For example, the details of the incident and description of the bag should be in separate paragraphs.
Task Achievement
The letter addresses all required points: details of the incident, inquiry about the status of the bag, and what you want if the bag isn't found.
Task Achievement
The tone of the letter is polite and suitable for formal communication, which is important for task fulfillment.
Coherence and Cohesion
The greeting and closing of the letter are appropriately used, positively contributing to the overall tone of the letter.

Structure your letter

A letter needs to be written using a proper format, including the following:

  • A greeting (Dear sir/madam, Dear John, Dear Mr. Smith)
  • The main body (consisting of paragraphs for each part of the letter)
  • A closing (Yours sincerely, Yours faithfully, Best wishes, Kind regards, Love)

When writing a letter as part of the IELTS General Training Writing Task 1, it is important to include the bullet points presented to you in the question.

All three bullet points need to be presented. And remember that some bullet points contain more than one element. So, make sure to watch for ‘and’ and plurals.
