How To Generate Ideas for an
Application or Resignation Letter
You only have to write 150 words, so you won’t need many ideas but do make sure that you write about each bullet point and develop each idea fully.
They don't have to be the best ideas you can possibly think of. Go with your first thoughts and don’t waste time trying to think of better ideas. However, they must relate directly to the bullet points.
Note them beside each bullet point on the exam paper, like this:
You would like a job working in a summer camp which runs sports and outdoor activities for children and young people.
Write a letter to the organiser of the summer camp. In your letter:
describe your personality
Outgoing, fun-loving, energetic
say what relevant experience and skills you have
Scout leader, qualified instructor – kayaking & climbing
explain what sort of work you would like to do.
Lead group activities, campfire cooking
That’s our planning complete. Once you’ve had some practice, you’ll be able to do this in just a few minutes. Taking time to plan makes writing IELTS letters far quicker and easier than if you don’t do this step. You will also write a better letter and get higher marks.
We're now ready to start writing our letter.
