Dear Frank,

How are you? I hope everything is going well with you and your family.

I am writing to let you know that I have recently moved to Baden-Baden because I have accepted a new job there. Fortunately, I found a very cosy and affordable apartment in the city with a picturesque view on the river Rhein. In addition, it is big enough to welcome you and therefore, I would like to invite you and your family to spend some time here with me.

I know how much you love sports and I would like to suggest riding our bycicles along the beautiful river. Afterwards, we could rest in some of the pubs, which are located close to the river. There is also a very interested nature parc, where we could observe a wide range of animals, for example, birds and goats.

It would be amazing if we could meet up the coming Saturday, if it fits in your schedule.

I am really looking forward to catching up with you and exploring the beautiful city together.

Please take care and write back as soon as possible.

Best wishes,

Antonella

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter is well-organized and the message is easy to follow. The paragraphing is generally effective. To improve cohesion, consider varying your linking words and phrases to avoid repetition. For example, instead of repeatedly using 'in addition,' you could use alternatives like 'furthermore' or 'moreover.'

Lexical Resource

A good range of vocabulary is used appropriately. The language is natural and friendly, suitable for a letter to a friend. To further enhance your lexical resource, try incorporating more idiomatic expressions or specific details related to Baden-Baden.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy
