GT Writing: IELTS Letter: Can’t attend a teacher’s wedding

General training: Writing Task 1 

Your English teacher has invited you for her wedding. But, you are unable to attend the function.

Write a letter to her. In your letter

  • thank her for sending the invitation
  • explain why you cannot attend the ceremony
  • give information about any future plan to see her
Sample Answer

Dear Deepali Ma’am,

I believe you are doing well. Thank you very much for inviting me to your wedding. Unfortunately, it would not be possible for me to attend the ceremony as these days I am in an overseas training program facilitated by my organization. This training is an essential part of my job profile and would upgrade my knowledge. Hence, it is not feasible for me to take a break and travel to India.

It would have been a great pleasure for me to be a part of this special occasion of your life as you have been a mentor to me during my graduation. Your guidance and motivation have always helped me in making important choices about career and life. Certainly, you were one of the best faculties in the Bachelor of Arts course in Satya College. I will surely visit you when I return to Delhi, probably by the end of November this year.

Once again thank you for inviting me. I wish you all the best for your wedding and life ahead.

Yours sincerely,
Satyam Virmani

IELTS INFORMAL LETTER APOLOGIZING TO A FRIEND

IELTS INFORMAL LETTER #APOLOGIZING TO A FRIEND

You were supposed to receive a friend at the airport. But, for some reasons you are unable to do so. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter
– explain why you can’t come,
– guide them regarding other options to get to your home,
– describe the plans/visits you made to show them around when your friend arrives.

Sample Answer

Dear Sushmita,

I believe your preparations to come to India are in full swing. I am eagerly waiting to see you on Thursday evening. As discussed earlier, I had promised to collect you from the airport but unfortunately I would not be able to keep my words due to an unplanned official meeting.

Just yesterday my boss informed me about an urgent meeting of foreign delegates that will take place on the coming Thursday, the day of your arrival. I have been asked to give a presentation too. In this case, it won’t possible for me to reach the airport as we had planned earlier. Don’t worry. The airport has an excellent taxi service. My suggestion for you would be to take a cab from the airport to reach my home. You can book a cab online or hire one from outside the airport.

I just can’t wait to see you and I have planned many things for your stay. I have reserved seats for a get-together with our college friends in the ‘Memories Café on Friday evening. On Saturday, we would go shopping and enjoy the street food of Delhi. We will plan the rest of days as per your preferences.

I Look forward to seeing you soon! (207 Words)

Yours lovingly,
Kritika

IELTS Essay Sample Questions # Younger Generation

We are living in the 21st century and the world has never been younger. With a huge number of population to be young, the world is moving at a different pace. However, with the younger generation in action, most people complain that the millennials often do not listen to their predecessors.

You should spend 40 minutes on this task.
It is believed that young people have too much freedom and they don’t pay attention to the older people’s advice. Do you agree or disagree?
You should write at least 250 words.

SAMPLE ANSWER

The world is changing at a rapid pace and thus the difference between people born in different times is inevitable. Individuals with a mere difference of few years tend to sometimes have completely different opinions. This clash often leads people to come in the denial mode. Most people believe that the younger generation has been given a lot of freedom and they rarely listen to the elder people’s advice.

Millenials as we know they are independent individuals with access to the world that happens at a click of a button. With knowledge at their hand, they have become more enlightened of the things of past, which they disagree with. For instance, a person believing that a woman should be allowed to work outside, will less likely to listen to someone who disagrees with it.

Even more, most of the younger people tend to have an entrepreneurial mind while older generation was more loyal towards a single employer. So, when the elder generation tries stopping them or advises them, they often go into the denial mode.

The human race is constantly evolving and there is a change in the ideologies of people belonging to different generations. It is only through understanding the changes and the present scenarios can generations be able to share their experiences and creativity.

Dear Radhika Ma’am,

It has been almost two months since I joined the Public speaking course and have been benefiting from it in leaps and bounds. Not only does the course helps me in giving good speeches, it also helps me to communicate better with people. It was with the help of this course that I have got selected in an MNC and would be moving for the job next week.

It will, therefore, be not possible for me to continue with the course. However, it has been a learning experience and I have learned not only English speaking but so many other facets of the language from you. You helped me become more confident on stage and I can now give a 15-minute talk easily on stage. The books and the material that you provided is a lifelong treasure.

Hope to be in touch online.
