Letters of complaint, common mistakes

After revising your Letters of Complaint, I’ve discovered some mistakes that should be revised in depth. Take a look at the following presentation and try to learn the correct form for each of them.

For and Against Essays

As promised in class, here you can see the presentation I used to explain this kind of essays. There you have everything you need to write a good composition. Remember that “for and against” and “advantages and disadvantages” follow the same scheme.

Below the presentation you can see some examples.
