Task Response

The letter addresses all three bullet points required by the task. However, some parts of the response are slightly repetitive or lack the necessary detail to fully satisfy the requirements. For example, the explanation for moving is clear, but the instructions regarding gifts are phrased in a way that might be confusing (asking guests to buy alcohol rather than suggesting it as a gift option). To improve, ensure that the tone remains consistent. Since the letter is addressed to former colleagues, the tone should strike a balance between friendly and professional. Additionally, work on sentence structure and grammatical accuracy to ensure the flow of information is smooth and the instructions (such as the RSVP and gift/parking details) are presented clearly and naturally.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter follows the required structure by addressing the bullet points, but the flow between sentences is often abrupt. The use of punctuation is inconsistent, particularly with commas and question marks, which disrupts the reading experience. To improve, try using more cohesive devices (e.g., 'Furthermore,' 'Regarding the location,') and ensure that each paragraph has a clear, singular focus. Avoid starting sentences with 'That is why' in a way that feels disconnected from the previous thought.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is quite basic and repetitive (e.g., using 'new' and 'big' multiple times). There are several spelling errors such as 'beacuse', 'partys', 'everytime', and 'recive'. To reach a higher band, aim to use more varied and sophisticated synonyms. For example, instead of 'very big', you could use 'spacious'; instead of 'very happy', you could use 'thrilled' or 'delighted'. Ensure you check the spelling of common words. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are frequent grammatical errors that impact the clarity of the message. Issues include subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'it have' instead of 'it has'), incorrect verb forms (e.g., 'like organise' instead of 'like organizing'), and awkward phrasing (e.g., 'drinks wine together'). There is also a tendency to use run-on sentences. Focus on mastering basic sentence structures and ensuring that your tenses are consistent throughout the letter.
