Task Response

The letter attempts to address the task but contains significant inaccuracies and irrelevant information. It does not clearly state the type of membership or how payment was made, and it confuses membership with employment (e.g., 'I worked different kinds of membership... as a computer teacher' and mentions salary). The benefits are described vaguely, and the reason for leaving is not clearly linked to the membership. To improve, clearly state your membership type (e.g., annual, monthly) and payment method, describe specific benefits you gained from the club, and provide a clear, personal reason for leaving that is relevant to the club context.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter has a basic structure with an opening, body, and closing, but the flow is disrupted by unclear connections between ideas. The purpose is stated, but the details about membership type and payment are missing, and the benefits are not clearly linked to the membership. The paragraphing is not effectively managed, and the overall message is difficult to follow due to abrupt transitions and lack of logical progression.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is limited and repetitive, with some inappropriate word choices (e.g., 'yearn much' instead of 'earn more'). There are also errors in word form and collocation (e.g., 'I worked different kinds of membership' instead of 'I held different types of membership'). The range of vocabulary is narrow, and the letter lacks the natural and sophisticated control expected at higher bands.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The letter contains numerous grammatical errors that affect clarity, including incorrect verb tenses, subject-verb agreement issues, and missing articles. Sentence structures are mostly simple and repetitive, with frequent errors in punctuation and capitalization. The errors significantly impede understanding, and the letter does not demonstrate the wide range of structures or control required for a higher band.
