Professional Writing Tasks: Email, Assignment Writing And Summarization

Task 1: Formal Email Writing

The following assessment requires discussing about four different kinds of tasks that help to understand the different viewpoints of academic writing in different forms. In the first task, it is required to write a formal email using correct English. The second task is intended to write a formal essay on the given topic. The topic of the third task is to summarize the complex ideas in fewer words that reflects the ability to interpret ideas in own words. In the fourth task, it is required to incorporate the researched material and in-text citations in the works for better understanding.

It is assumed that you understand that this email is being written to enquire about the booking of hotels. It has to be confirmed that everything is fine out there and follow the policies of the hotel.  It is being believed that you have booked 20 rooms every week from Monday to Friday for 5 weeks. The dates have to be confirmed that are Monday 2^nd – Friday 6^th October, Monday 9^th – Friday 13^th October, Monday 16^th – Friday 20^th October, Monday 23^rd – Friday 27^th October, Monday 30^th October – Friday 3^rd November, Monday 6^th November – Friday 10^th November.

It would have been better to know the current situation. It would also be very helpful to understand the check in and checkout policies of the hotel as well.
