Common IELTS General Training, letter Writing Task
If we take a closer look at Task Achievement in the IELTS assessment criteria, you can see the examiner checks to see if your letter contains the following features:
- Purpose of the letter is presented
- Tone of the letter is appropriate
- Bullet points are presented, highlighted and extended
- Format is appropriate – letter format
