Hi David, here are my corrections:
IELTS Writing Test 6
“Many people think modern communication technology is having some negative effects on social relationships. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?”
********************************************************************************
Nowadays, new technologies and digital trends are part of our daily routine and social lives. This statement formulates new questions and analysis related with to negative effects on social relationships [better: This fact raises questions pertaining to the potential negative effects on social relationships]. So, in this age of knowledge, it is inevitable that we ask ourselves: how deeply can modern communication technology affect us as human beings?
I agree with this statement. I’m completely sure that nowadays the human interaction is reduced to nothing more than data, since we can find digital trends through live-blogging, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat and a thousand other ways that we speak to people we've never met in our whole lives. Families, couples or friends that prefer to use their cellphones to talk to each other. In the little things there are a big changes, too. Today, it is not even necessary that you remember a birthday - the social media reminds you. Also, you don’t need to call your friends and wish them a happy birthday - you only have to send them a virtual gift, like a sticker cake or just write on their profile: “HBD”!
In conclusion, it’s impossible not to notice these changes in our society. Slowly, we are losing some important values. Don’t me wrong, I recognized the importance of modern communication technology in our lifestyles, economies and in globalization. I don’t consider myself a dinosaur or a caveman! However, we must pay attention to this situation and be aware of these changes. We must not miss out on humanity in the process.
Really interesting! I definitely agree on many points. Well done!

A Little Bit More Comfortable, A Little Bit Less Beautiful.
It was frosty and there were the knee-height snowdrifts in the last November. But, this winter came late. It was warm until a December. A Snow fell and melted at once. Finally, it grows colder and the snow covers the earth. I can see through a clean window that the streets become white. I used to have a wooden-framed windows which had frozen froze when it had got more frosty frostier. There were the traces that looked like the fantastic plants. Presently, I have the plastic windows. They keep the warmth better than the wooden ones but there are no beautiful icy trees and flowers, unfortunately.
It's a very beautiful expression. I know what it's like to miss the beauty of winter. :)All the best,
Dani

PS: Your son looks very sweet.0 votedDecember 11, 20170Dear Duy, here are my corrections. The text was understandable despite the mistakes, though I would recommend some extra practice. If you are interested, I'm a new community tutor here and could help you with speaking and writing.
Dear Sir or Madam,
Wrote a letter to a store manager to complain about a purchased jacket.
I had bought a jacket from your store last Monday with the invoice number 1234. Unfortunately, I did not check properly inside the jacket at the store, then being realized that it had been broken at the end of the inner pocket when I get home. [Suggestion: I unfortunately did not check the inside pocket before purchasing, and only realize it was broken after I arrived home.] I called your staff to inform them of the problem and I had requested to exchange it for a new one. They had asked me to come to the store along with the jacket to solve the problem.I returned to your store the next afternoon, the different salesman refused to change it after he checked the jacket. He told me that sold items not allowed to return if the things had been went out of store. [Suggestion: He told me that I couldn't return the item before I had already taken it from the store.]
I also explained to him that my main purpose is only to change the jacket with a non-defective one and that I called his colleague immediately when I arrived home and noticed the problem. It had been less less than 20 minutes since I left your store.
Actually, this is not the first time I buy merchandise from your store. I really like all the things there as they are extremely diverse.
I trust you will accept my request to change the jacket as a fair and reasonable solution to this matter.
Please give me call on 12345678 if you have any further questions.
Your sincerely.0 votedDecember 8, 20171
