Firstly, understand the subject type of letter you have to write. Is it a formal, semi-formal, or informal letter? Your tone, choice of words, as well as the opening and closing lines will be decided by the subject type. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ii. No matter what the \u2018scenario\u2019 for the letter is, the examiner will score for: (a.) the structure, (b.) vocabulary, and (c.) language fluency. Use standard phrases for letters, and learn the correct spelling of commonly used words.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">iii. Break up your letter into at least three paragraphs. There should be: (a.) an introduction, (b.) general body, and (c.) conclusion to the letter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>iv.<b>\u00a0<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do not deviate from the topic.
