IELTS GT Task 1 Letter: Formal Business — Work

Original practice prompt written in exam style — not a real exam question, and not a prediction.

Your company has announced that your office will move across town next month, adding an hour to your journey. Write a letter to your employer. In your letter: • explain how the move affects you • ask whether flexible hours or some home working would be possible • suggest a trial period

Examiner focus: A reasoned request to an employer: impact stated, solution proposed, trial offered.
