Hi Neighbors!

I live in the house down the alley, The yellow one.

My mom from Thailand just arrived to visit my family and she brought a lot of interesting souvenirs. Also Miss Jan from the pink house will finish her cancer treathment next week. So I think it is a perfect time to celebrate and have some potluck dinner!

If you are interested, We are going to have a potluck dinner at my house on next Saturday at 7pm. My mom’s is going to make many Thai dishes and Miss Jan’s cake is the best. Please bring at least one dish to share with 5-6 people and maybe some drinks or deserts. Miss Jan can not eat pork so please avoid any pork menus but anything spicy is totally fine. We also have some fine wines because it is a celebration!

Hope to see you next week.

Your neighbors.

Task Response

6
The letter addresses the task by including the date, time, and location, and requests dishes to share, and mentions dietary restrictions. However, the letter includes some irrelevant information (souvenirs, Miss Jan's cancer treatment) that detracts from the task achievement. To improve, focus on providing only the necessary details for the invitation and maintaining a clear and concise tone.

Coherence & Cohesion

6
The letter's organization could be improved for better clarity. Consider dedicating a paragraph to each key point: the event's purpose, the details (date, time, location), and the requests/dietary restrictions. This will help your neighbors easily follow the information. Also, the introduction feels a bit disjointed. Try to smoothly connect the reasons for the potluck (mom's visit, Miss Jan's recovery) to the invitation itself.

Lexical Resource

7
The vocabulary is generally appropriate, but there's room to enhance it. For example, instead of 'interesting souvenirs,' you could say 'unique souvenirs'. Varying your word choice can make the letter more engaging. Also, consider using more formal language. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

5
There are several grammatical errors that affect the clarity of the letter. Pay attention to subject-verb agreement ('My mom is going to make'), correct tense usage ('Miss Jan will finish her treatment'), and article usage ('a potluck dinner'). Proofreading carefully before submitting can help catch these errors. Also, avoid contractions.
