Task Response

The letter covers all the required points: purpose, time since last meeting, date/time/location, and suggestions for accommodation and activities. The tone is friendly and appropriate. However, there are some minor lapses: the phrase 'invite to my birthday reunion' is slightly unclear (it's a university reunion, not a birthday), and there are a few grammatical errors and awkward phrasings (e.g., 'to met', 'orginise', 'hopen'). To improve, ensure clarity and accuracy in expression, and proofread for spelling and grammar.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter is generally easy to follow, but there are some minor lapses in cohesion. The purpose is clear, and the structure is logical, but the flow could be improved by using more linking words and ensuring that each paragraph has a clear central topic. For example, the second paragraph mixes the purpose and the time since graduation, which could be separated. Also, the third paragraph could be split into two: one for the event details and one for accommodation and contributions. Overall, the message is coherent, but the paragraphing could be more skilfully managed.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate and appropriate for the task, but there is limited range and some inaccuracies. For instance, 'birthday reunion' is not a common collocation; 'reunion' alone would suffice. Also, 'orginise' is a spelling error, and 'hopen' is a typo. The phrase 'to met' should be 'to meet'. There is some repetition of 'university friends' and 'great time'. To improve, use a wider range of vocabulary and ensure correct spelling and word forms. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The letter contains a mix of simple and complex structures, but there are several grammatical errors that affect accuracy. For example, 'I am writing to invite to my birthday reunion' is missing an object ('you'). 'The main purpose of the reunion to met' should be 'The main purpose of the reunion is to meet'. Also, 'I can't imagine it has already been five years' is awkward; consider 'I can't believe it has already been five years'. Punctuation is inconsistent, with missing spaces after commas and periods. Overall, the range is adequate, but accuracy needs improvement.
