Task Response

The letter addresses all parts of the task, but the development of the ideas is limited and some information is slightly confusing. While you mentioned when and where you met, and what kind of job you are interested in, the connection between your experience and the specific role could be clearer. To improve, ensure that you clearly define the specific job role you are applying for (e.g., Restaurant Manager or Head Chef) rather than listing various skills. Additionally, focus on grammatical accuracy and sentence structure; for example, avoid phrases like 'that girl who tell here' and instead use more professional introductions such as 'I am writing to follow up on our conversation...' Work on subject-verb agreement and the correct use of articles to ensure your professional qualifications are communicated effectively.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter follows the required structure by addressing the three bullet points, but the flow between ideas is somewhat disjointed. The transition between mentioning the meeting and discussing your qualifications could be smoother. To improve, use more effective cohesive devices (e.g., 'Regarding the position we discussed...' or 'With respect to my experience...') to link your personal history to the job application. Ensure each paragraph has a clear, singular focus.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is functional but limited and contains several errors in word choice and formation (e.g., 'bigest dream', 'quite personne', 'love here job'). There is an attempt to use professional language like 'prompt response' and 'facilitated tasks,' which is good, but it is undermined by inaccuracies. Aim to expand your range of professional adjectives and ensure that nouns and adjectives are used in their correct forms (e.g., 'a quiet person' instead of 'a quite personne').

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical errors are frequent and occasionally impede the reader's understanding. There are issues with subject-verb agreement, tense consistency (e.g., mixing past and present when describing previous roles), and article usage. For example, 'I have master degree' should be 'I have a Master's degree.' Additionally, capitalization is inconsistent (e.g., 'i' instead of 'I'). To improve, focus on mastering basic sentence structures, correct verb tenses for past experiences, and the proper use of articles (a, an, the).
