Dear Mr. & Mrs. Littleton,

I hope this letter finds you well. Let me introduce myself. My name is Tika, and I come from Indonesia. I have been in Australia for nearly one year. I saw an advertisement about you’re looking for someone to teach your children a new language for a year. As Indonesian language is my first language, I have capability to share my knowledge and give a lesson for your kids. I am more than glad to do this for a year.

On the other hand, I can help you to look after your children while both of you are working. I have obtained the blue card certification, so I am a legal child-carer now. Besides, I also got my interstate driving license couple of months ago, so I can drive your kids to somewhere whenever they need. I hope that I can fulfill your needs and help your loved ones to learn a new language.

In fact, I need this job to complete the requiring hours that I should accomplish to get a professional certification in professional childcare provider. I hope to hear from you soon and if you want to arrange a meeting with me, you can reach me through my mobile (0401122334).

Regards,

Tika

Task Response

The letter appropriately addresses all parts of the task, explaining suitability, additional skills, and reasons for wanting the job. The response is relevant and sufficiently detailed. To improve, ensure consistently accurate grammar and a slightly more formal tone throughout.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter is generally well-organized with a clear introduction, body, and conclusion. The purpose of the letter is immediately apparent, and the progression of ideas is logical. However, there are a few instances where transitions could be smoother to enhance the flow. For example, elaborating slightly more on how your skills align with the family's needs in the second paragraph would improve cohesion. Additionally, ensure each paragraph focuses on a single main idea to maintain clarity.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is appropriate and generally accurate for the task. There is room to enhance the letter by incorporating a wider range of vocabulary to express ideas more precisely and naturally. For instance, instead of saying 'I have capability,' consider using 'I am capable' or 'I possess the ability.' Also, try to vary your word choice to avoid repetition and demonstrate a broader command of the language. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The letter demonstrates a good command of grammar, with only a few errors that do not significantly impede understanding. Pay close attention to subject-verb agreement and correct use of articles (e.g., 'the' vs. 'a'). For example, 'you're' should be 'you are'. Also, review sentence structures to ensure they are clear and concise. Proofreading carefully before submission can help catch these minor errors.
