A Compendium of Business Letter Writing

Abstract

Writing skills are often the most difficult skills for students of English as a foreign language to acquire. Alongside general writing proficiency, letter writing, as an activity, requires special knowledge and competence when learning to write letters appropriately and seeking successful communication results in the modern world. Many executives still prefer a written document, i.e. a letter, to other forms of communication because the document can serve as a contract, the facts will be on record, and there will be no need to rely on memory.
