Dear Sir or madam

I hope this letter finds you well, I am writing this letter to express my experience about the cooking course which did from your school.

Firstly, I would like to say thank you to all the members who helped me to learn cooking.

Furthermore, I really enjoyed cooking at your school and the way your team supported me by correcting all my mistakes and guiding me in right direction.

Moreover, Since the course I am cooking for every day as I currently leave in Canada with my friends.

Task Response

The letter appropriately addresses all parts of the task, providing relevant details about the writer's enjoyment of the course, the amount of cooking done since, and a suggestion for a new course. The content is well-organized and easy to follow. To further improve, consider adding more specific examples to enhance the impact of your points. For instance, you could mention a particular dish you learned to cook or a specific breakfast/lunch item you'd like to see taught.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter is generally understandable, but the organization could be improved. Consider structuring your letter with a clear introduction, body paragraphs focusing on each of the task points (enjoyment, cooking since the course, and course suggestion), and a concise conclusion. Using more explicit linking words and phrases would also enhance the flow between ideas.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is adequate for the task, but there's room to enhance it with more specific and varied word choices. For example, instead of repeatedly using 'cooking,' try incorporating synonyms like 'culinary arts,' 'food preparation,' or 'gastronomy' where appropriate. This will demonstrate a broader lexical range.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The letter contains grammatical errors that occasionally impede understanding. Focus on improving sentence structure, subject-verb agreement, and correct tense usage. Review basic grammar rules and practice applying them in your writing. Pay close attention to punctuation, especially commas and apostrophes, to ensure clarity.
