Dear Hemal sir,

I hope this letter finds you in radiant health and high spirits. I am writing to extend my gratitude for your guidance and support throughout my school life.

During school, my grades in mathematics subject was below average. I had difficulty to understand the concepts taught by teacher in the classroom. I was planning to drop the course but you noticed my problem and guided me in the right direction. Moreover, I would like to thank you for arranging after school tutoring sessions for the students who were in the same boat as me. Those sessions were really helpful, I enjoyed on how you made us practice on easier problems and eventually increase the complexity. As my foundation was clear, I was not only able to pass with flying colour in my SAT tests but also got admission in one of the renowned engineering universities. I am thankful for your guidance and looking forward to meet and thank you in-person.

Yours faithfully,

Ram Kapoor

The letter adequately addresses the task by expressing gratitude to the teacher and updating them about the writer's life since graduation. However, it could have included more specific details about the writer's life post-graduation to enhance the response.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter is generally coherent and cohesive. The writer effectively expresses gratitude and provides examples of the teacher's support. However, there are some minor lapses in cohesion, such as the abrupt transition between discussing the tutoring sessions and the writer's academic achievements.

Lexical Resource

The letter demonstrates a good range of vocabulary with some sophisticated words and phrases. However, there is room for improvement in using more varied and precise vocabulary to enhance the overall lexical resource.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There is a good variety of sentence structures used throughout the letter. However, there are some grammatical errors and awkward phrasings that slightly affect the overall accuracy. Proofreading for grammar and punctuation would be beneficial.
