Hi dear mam.

My name is mandeep kaur. I am one of your recreational therapy students in first year. I have one problem with the research project which was actually due on last week and I couldn’t finish it. So i am very afraid about one of my important assignments. I actually got some family emergency in which i had to take my grandmother to the hospital and no body was there at home accept me. Because the rest of the family member went to italy for a tour. It was so difficult for me to look after my grandmother at home when we came back from the hospital after three days. However, i was off last week because of this emergency and i missed most of the valuable information about this project. I humbly request you to give me the project extension for this week and I promise i would definitely submit my research project by the last day of this week.

Your sincerely

Mandeep kaur

Task Response

5.5

The letter adequately introduces the student, explains the reason for not submitting the project on time, and requests an extension. However, the explanation could be more concise and focused on the main points. It would be beneficial to directly address the lecturer's understanding and request for an extension.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter is somewhat coherent but lacks a clear structure. There are some issues with paragraphing and the flow of ideas. Additionally, some sentences are overly long and could be divided for better readability. Try to organize the information more logically to improve coherence.

Lexical Resource

There is a range of vocabulary used, but some words are not the most appropriate choices. Work on using more precise and academic language. Additionally, pay attention to word choice and sentence structure to enhance the overall lexical resource.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are several grammatical errors throughout the letter, including punctuation and tense inconsistencies. Review the use of articles, prepositions, and verb forms for better accuracy. Consider varying sentence structures to demonstrate a wider range of grammar.
