task response
You answer all parts of the task. Add one clear detail about when the music starts or how often it happens. This will make the problem more clear.
task response
Use more direct requests, such as “Please stop the music by 10 p.m.” This will make your letter stronger and easier to act on.
coherence and cohesion
Your ideas are in a good order: problem, time, and request. Use simple linking words like “Also”, “Because of this”, and “Therefore” to make the flow even smoother.
coherence and cohesion
Keep each paragraph on one main point. The first paragraph could focus only on the noise, and the next one could focus on how it affects your family.
task response
You clearly explain the late-night music, how long it has happened, and what you want your neighbour to do.
task response
Your requests are polite and helpful, and you give more than one possible way to solve the problem.
coherence and cohesion
The letter has a clear start, main body, and ending. It is easy to follow.
coherence and cohesion
The greeting and closing fit a letter to a neighbour, and the tone is polite.
Use cohesive linking words accurately and appropriately
Linking words are very important in your essay.
To score effectively on your IELTS exam, you should make an effort to implement short concise sentences coupled with linking words.
Almost every sentence in your essay should have a linking word of some sort.
In fact, the only sentences that can omit linking words are your background sentence and thesis.
Linking word examples:
- firstly
- secondly
- thirdly
- in additional
- moreover
- also
- for example
- for instance
- therefore
- however
- although
- even though
- despite
