Dear Jane and Rose,

I am writing to invite you to a housewarming party for my new apartment.

I recently bought my first apartment that is closer to my workplace. The house is everything that I dreamt of, so I thought I should invite you guys over to come and celebrate this mildstone with me! The party will be on Thursday, the 2nd of June from 7pm to 9pm.

I moved to Karen estate close to the Hub Mall. So, from town, drive on kisaka lane for 10km. Take the first right, you will see the Mall in 2km. Afterwards, continue straight for another 3km, there is an apartment named Kifaru apartments. Once you have arrived, give me a call.

I’ll be preparing beef stew, rice and vegetables. Therefore, I would appreciate if you carry a drink of your choice with you since we prefer different things.

I’m hoping to see you soon.

Best wishes,

Nicole.

Task Response

8
The letter effectively addresses all three bullet points: the reason for the party with date and time, the address and directions, and what to bring. The tone is friendly and appropriate for a colleague. However, there are minor lapses: the greeting addresses two people ('Jane and Rose') but the task specifies a single colleague, and there is a typo ('mildstone' instead of 'milestone'). The directions could be slightly clearer. To improve, ensure the recipient is singular as per the task, proofread for spelling errors, and consider simplifying the directions for better clarity.

Coherence & Cohesion

8
The letter is well-organized and easy to follow. Each paragraph addresses a specific point from the task. The flow is natural, though the transition between the directions and the request for bringing a drink could be slightly smoother. Consider using a linking phrase like 'As for what to bring...' to enhance cohesion.

Lexical Resource

7
The vocabulary is appropriate and clear, with good use of phrases like 'everything that I dreamt of' and 'prefer different things.' However, there is a minor spelling error ('mildstone' instead of 'milestone'). To improve, consider using more varied expressions, such as 'celebrate this milestone with me' or 'bring a beverage of your choice.' Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

7
The grammar is mostly accurate, with a good range of structures. There are minor issues, such as missing articles ('the house is everything that I dreamt of' should be 'the house is everything I dreamed of') and a slight awkwardness in 'I would appreciate if you carry' (should be 'I would appreciate it if you could bring'). Overall, the letter is clear and well-written.
