You recently booked a part-time course at a college. You now need to cancel your booking.
Write a letter to the college administrator.
In your IELTS General Training Task 1, you are required to write a letter (or sometimes an email) of around 150 words. For example, you may be asked to congratulate a friend who has recently been promoted in his/her job, or a letter to your landlord describing a problem in the house you have rented, or a letter to your manager in your office. We generally recommend writing between 160 to 180 words.
You need to write a letter/email which can be informal (to a friend or a close cousin), semi-formal (to a neighbour, or your office manager), or formal (to a shop manager or city councillor). We have added many letter and email responses which are band 7 to 9 level. You can practice them to be able to write any type of letter in your IELTS test.
Please note that if you are asked to write an email, your response would be the same as writing a letter.
