Grammar
Try to proofread your letters to catch minor errors such as spelling and punctuation mistakes. For instance, 'I hope' instead of 'I Hope' and 'freindly' instead of 'friendly'.
Coherence and Cohesion
Some sentences are quite long and could be separated into shorter ones for better readability. For example, 'In 2025, I am going to Canada... first language' could be split into two sentences.
Task Achievement
Make sure that each paragraph centers around a single idea to enhance coherence and cohesion. For instance, the motivation to learn French and logistical details about the schedule could be better separated.
Coherence and Cohesion
The letter mostly follows a logical structure with an appropriate greeting and closing.
Task Achievement
The tone of the letter is friendly and appropriate for the context, which is a key aspect of suitable writing tone.
Task Achievement
You have addressed all parts of the task: your motivation, how the teacher can help, and your availability.
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.
