Try to proofread your letter to correct grammatical and spelling errors. For example, 'Sydney Asturalian magzines' should be 'Sydney Australian magazines.'
coherence cohesion
Ensure that paragraphs contain a single clear idea. Some sentences about your qualifications and free-time activities are mixed together, which may confuse the reader.
coherence cohesion
Enhance the logical structure by using transitional words and phrases. This will help your reader follow the flow of your letter more easily.
task response
You have addressed all parts of the task well, explaining your interest in the job, your qualifications, and your plans for your free time.

The tone of the letter is polite and suitable for a formal job application.
coherence cohesion
Your greeting and closing are proper and appropriate for a formal letter.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 150 words in writing task 1. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long letter will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 160 to 190 words in writing task 1. This will ensure a concise letter and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 20 minutes to write the letter and you need around 5 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long letter in 15 minutes.
