Dear Rebbeka,

I have thrilled to hear that you have selected the same course which I have done at the university. It’s a Nursing related degree programme conduct for 4 years, including all practicle lessons which attached to the teaching hospital Karapitiya. It has very exciting course content that always students interested in studing. This is a Bachelor of Science with a special degree which can be secure a job position in the same hospital after graduation.

I recommended this not because of the interesting of the curriculam, but the supportive back ground of the staff and the easy approch to the lecturers and the nature of the campus has been facinating.

I would like you to suggest to take part in open day events coducted by the campus to get more details regarding updated course details and admission process.

Don’t hesitate to ask any assistance ragarding this and I so excited to see you at the University in next year.

Best wishes for a bright future!

your’s,

Dula

Task Response

The letter appropriately addresses all parts of the task, providing details about the course, reasons for recommending the university, and advice on applying. The content is relevant and sufficiently detailed. To improve, consider elaborating further on the advice about the application process to make it even more helpful.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter generally addresses the task, but the organization could be improved for better flow. Consider using more explicit transitions between the details of the course, the reasons for recommending the university, and the advice on applying. Paragraphing is present but could be used more effectively to separate distinct ideas. For example, the recommendation of the university could be in a separate paragraph to emphasize its importance.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but could be more varied and precise. For instance, instead of 'very exciting course content,' you could use more specific adjectives like 'engaging' or 'comprehensive.' Also, 'easy approch to the lecturers' could be rephrased for clarity and impact. Focus on using more sophisticated vocabulary relevant to academic recommendations and advice.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The letter contains several grammatical errors that affect clarity. For example, 'I have thrilled to hear' should be 'I was thrilled to hear,' and 'practicle lessons which attached to the teaching hospital' needs restructuring. Pay close attention to verb tense consistency, subject-verb agreement, and correct use of prepositions. Proofreading carefully for these errors will significantly improve the letter's grammatical accuracy.
