task response

Say more clearly when you want your friend to come, such as this weekend or after work. This makes the invite more full.

task response

Use the right form: “I was happy to hear that you have moved here” and “I am very happy about this news.”

coherence and cohesion

Your letter has a clear start, middle, and end. Link ideas with simple words such as “also”, “so”, and “because” where needed.

coherence and cohesion

Start each new sentence with a capital letter. Also use “an off day”, “a long time”, and “at my house” for clearer writing.

task response

You invite your friend, offer food, and offer help with a place to stay. These ideas fit the letter well.

coherence and cohesion

The greeting and closing are warm, and the letter sounds kind and friendly.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
