Situational Writing Format

Dear all, for the format of situational writing, whether you put in a SENDER'S address is dependent on whether you are in the SAME ORGANIZATION. If you're writing out to someone else in a formal capacity, then go ahead and put an address. If you're writing as a student to a member of the staff, you DON'T need an address.

If you're still unsure, use the following format for FORMAL LETTER (necessary stuff in highlights):
_______________________________________________________________________
Sender's address
Sender's postal code

DATE

Recipient's name
Recipient's title / post in organisation

Dear (Recipient),       (<-- note the comma!)

Re: (Purpose of letter)


(body of letter in sensible paragraphs)

Yours sincerely,       (<---- Capital Y, small letter s, note comma!)

SIGNATURE
FULL NAME
SENDER'S DESIGNATION (if any)
