task response
Score: 5. Answer all three parts more clearly. Say the exact job you want, where in Canada you want to work, and why work abroad will help your future. Add what kind of place you want to work in, such as a hotel or a restaurant.
task response
Use a more formal tone. Do not write “I am Sonia from India.” Start with why you are writing. Also, ask the agency to help you find a job.
coherence and cohesion
Score: 5. Keep one main idea in each paragraph. Put your job skills in one paragraph, your place choice in the next, and your reasons for working abroad in another.
coherence and cohesion
Some ideas are not clear or are cut short. For example, explain the point about your friend in Toronto in a full, simple sentence. Use short sentences to make your meaning easy to follow.
task response
You say what job you want: a senior chef job. You also name Canada and Toronto, and give reasons for working there.
coherence and cohesion
The letter has a clear start, main part, and end. Words such as “To begin with”, “Moreover”, and “Additionally” help join ideas.
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.
