Subject- Inquiry about English Course and request for an accommodation.

Dear Sir,

I recently hold a Bachelor in Arts degree from the local public college. I am looking for taking an admission in the Masters of English in Canada. I want to know about it in detail from your MG college Canada through this email.

I searched at official website of your campus but I did not find any suitable data about my education. Actually, I want to know about the duration and the fee structure of English Course. Also, the facilities which pupils take advantages in their study like library, labs, events, and other sources. Mostly institutes arrange the rental space which is including your college as well.

Additionally, I prefer to live near the college for reducing the daily travel time. I have an allergy from pets, so I would recommend a pet-free space due to the health problems.

It would be great, if your one of the expert help me, and clear my all doubts.

Thankyou for your time, and I will wait for your response.

Yours faithfully,

Reetika

Task Response

The letter addresses the task requirements by inquiring about the school's English courses, specifying accommodation preferences, and mentioning a special request regarding allergies. However, there are some areas for improvement. The letter could be more direct and concise in its purpose. The introduction mentions a desire to pursue a Master's degree in Canada, which is not directly relevant to the task of inquiring about English courses. The letter could also benefit from clearer organization and more specific details regarding the type of accommodation desired. Overall, the letter fulfills the task requirements but could be improved with more focused and detailed information.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter is generally organized, but the flow of ideas could be improved. The opening paragraph introduces the writer's background but doesn't directly state the purpose of inquiring about an English course overseas. The connection between pursuing a Master's in English in Canada and inquiring at 'MG college Canada' is unclear, affecting coherence. Paragraphing is adequate, but transitions between paragraphs could be smoother to enhance the overall flow. For example, clearly state that you are planning to study English at their school overseas before asking specific questions.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate for the task, but there are instances where more precise word choices could enhance the letter. For example, instead of 'take advantages,' consider using 'utilize' or 'benefit from.' Varying your vocabulary and using more specific terms related to course inquiries and accommodation requests would improve this aspect. Instead of 'rental space', using 'accommodation options' would be more appropriate.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The letter contains several grammatical errors that affect clarity. For example, 'I recently hold a Bachelor' should be 'I recently obtained a Bachelor's degree.' 'Masters of English' should be 'Master of English.' 'Pupils take advantages' should be 'students can utilize'. There are also issues with article usage (e.g., 'the Masters of English' should be 'a Master of English'). Correcting these errors and ensuring subject-verb agreement will improve grammatical accuracy. Also, be careful about using the correct prepositions.
