What makes IELTS Semi-Formal Letters so difficult?
Manage episode 302773272 series 2666548
This week, I updated my recent IELTS letters blog post to show 20 prompts that have been given in exams this year. Today, Nick and I discuss 6 of those semi-formal questions in detail to look at what how you can decide the correct tone for your letter. You see, like formal and informal letters that have a fixed tone, semi-formal letters can swing between very formal and very informal depending on the topic of the letter. Find out how to get it right with us today.
