Dear Sir or Madam,

Greetings!

I am writing this letter to formally inform you that I can no longer proceed with studying this course. In the morning, I have a full-time job, and in the evening, I attend your class to enhance my professional skills.

As you may know, I am currently working as a reporter, and I need to go to the scene of the accidents; thus, working overtime is common. Especially now that it is monsoon season, I have to be on call 24 hours every day. As a result, I find it impossible to attend the evening sessions or commit sufficient time to complete assignments.

Moreover, I would like to defer my face-to-face studies to online videos when my workload decreases, so that I can learn by myself, or to the next semester. In addition, could you please tell me which of the following items is possible? I do not want to miss any class for it is my favorite class in this school.

Thank you for your understanding. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours faithfully,

Annie.

Task Response

8
The letter effectively addresses all three bullet points: it describes the situation (full-time job and evening course), explains the reason for not continuing (unpredictable overtime due to monsoon season), and states the desired action (deferring to online videos or next semester). The tone is polite and formal, and the letter is well-structured. Minor lapses include a slightly informal opening ('Greetings!') and a somewhat unclear request about options, but these do not detract significantly from the overall task achievement. To improve, ensure the request for action is more specific and avoid informal phrasing.

Coherence & Cohesion

8
The letter is well-organized and easy to follow. The purpose is clearly stated in the opening, and the situation, reason, and request are presented in a logical sequence. Paragraphing is appropriate, with each paragraph focusing on a distinct point. Minor improvements could be made by using more cohesive devices to link ideas smoothly, such as 'In addition' or 'Furthermore' at the start of the third paragraph, which is already present. Overall, the message flows naturally and is coherent.

Lexical Resource

8
The vocabulary used is appropriate and varied, with some good collocations like 'formally inform', 'enhance my professional skills', 'commit sufficient time', and 'defer my studies'. The tone is formal and suitable for a letter to a tutor. To achieve a higher score, you could incorporate more sophisticated and precise vocabulary, such as 'due to the demanding nature of my job' instead of 'working overtime is common', and 'I would appreciate your guidance on the available options' instead of 'could you please tell me which of the following items is possible'. Overall, the lexical resource is strong and effective.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

9
The letter demonstrates a wide range of grammatical structures used accurately and flexibly. Complex sentences are handled well, and punctuation is correct throughout. There are no noticeable grammar errors, and the structures are varied, including conditional forms and subordinate clauses. This level of accuracy and range is excellent and meets the highest standards.
