Regarding the levels of formality, it is not bad to use contractions in academic writing provided that they are not used in excess, occasionally used, and well executed. Further, quotes should be reproduced exactly as they are while taking care on the first and second person pronouns in the academic writing works.

Moreover, when using emails, memos, and business letters, the recipients’ title needs consideration.
In the context of professional and academic writing, specific writing styles prefer particular and consistent ways of writing references. Individuals, who are unable to correctly reference, should regularly refer to the conventions provided for in reference guiding manuals. Furthermore, fragment sentences are not appropriate in academic writing as they are in social media and they should be avoided unless called needed.
Further, informal writing styles should never be used in academic writing and it is paramount to comprehend genres, tasks, and expectations for writing. A writer can seek clarity from the instructor. All the constructions should not be too casual. However, the constructions must be marked and edited to tailor it to the appropriate style.
