Hello! I hope this email finds you well!

I’m emailing you to inform you that noises from your property had not been minimized, so i think you haven’t took my strong advice for being quieter. As i know many neighbors are already exhausted from loudness coming from your house.

So i suggest a solution to keep the peace.

I think it would be better if you tried to keep your family hushed after 10 pm.

Because the whole neighborhood has to wake up early to go with their day. And falling asleep sometimes is just impossible.

I don’t want to argue or have controversy with you. Just offering solution that would benifit both sides.

Task Response

The letter addresses the main points of the task, but the tone is somewhat accusatory rather than diplomatic. The explanation of the issue and its impact could be more detailed and specific. The suggested solution is reasonable, but the letter could benefit from a more polite and friendly closing. To improve, focus on using more tactful language and providing concrete examples of the noise issues and their effects. The letter falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter's organization is somewhat clear, but the flow of ideas could be improved. Consider using more formal transitions and ensuring each paragraph focuses on a single aspect of the issue. For example, dedicate one paragraph to explaining the impact of the noise and another to suggesting solutions. Also, avoid starting the letter with 'Hello!' in a formal letter.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is adequate for the task, but it could be more precise and varied. Instead of general words like 'noises' and 'loudness,' try to use more specific terms to describe the sounds. Also, the tone is too informal for a letter addressing a complaint; aim for a more respectful and diplomatic tone.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are several grammatical errors that affect the clarity of the message. Pay attention to subject-verb agreement, correct tense usage, and proper punctuation. For example, 'noises...had not been minimized' should be revised for better grammatical accuracy. Also, avoid contractions in formal writing.
