IELTS WRITING TIPS
Writing Task 1 (IELTS)
There is a problem with the changing room in your gym. You reported it several times,but it was not resolved . Write a letter to the gym manager . In your letter
- Describe the problem.
- Explain what the gym's response was when you reported the problem.
- Say what you would like the manager to do about the problem.
Dear Johnsen,
I am Siya and holds premium membership of your gym. I am writing this letter to express my disappointment with changing room at the gym . I believe you are the right person to state my concern.
I would like to bring some potential issues to your kind notice. First and foremost , the lock of this room is not working , which is a matter of concern as far as privacy is considered. Additionally there is continuous water dropping from air conditioner , which really makes floor wet. Moreover , to the utmost dissatisfaction , the light of the room is also not working.
Conspicuously, this is the second time I am reporting this issue as earlier no attention was paid by your assistant manager to these problems. Farther more his behaviour was also very unprofessional which is not expected from such a well named fitness brand.
I would like you to fix all above mentioned issues as soon as possible , and also provide soft skill training to your staff for foreseeable future.
Yours sincerely
Siya

Labour Day Speech
Hello everyone
I am ________ . I study in grade _____. As we all know that today is 1st May which is celebrated as Labour Day.Today I will tell you about Why do we celebrate Labour Day.The story of Labour Day began with the rise in industrialization. The industrialists exploited the labor class those days. They took a lot of work from them but paid them very less. Laborers were forced to work for 10-15 hours a day in very tough conditions. Those who worked in chemical factories, mines, and other similar places suffered very much. Lastly, they took the bravery to stand united and raise their voice against this oppression. So, the government heard their request and reduced the working hour to 8 hours. Thus, it is a special day to appreciate and recognize their contribution to society as they are certainly well-deserved.
Thank you have nice day.
