Dear raj,

I hope you are doing well. I received your letter and understand that you are confused about whether to continue college or start working. After thinking about your situation, I believe getting a job would be a better choice for you.

Firstly, I believe that you are not enjoying to continue your college. I heared that you felt tired doing preparation for exam, assessment and some time you are not attending classes.

I recommend you that this is right time to build your career because many new career opportunities available in market. Moreover, it would make you financial independence stability and also you can help your family.

I like to suggest that you should search your career in IT field because you are good in coding and working real life can improve your skills rather than learning theoretic knowledge. Furthermore, you can also apply for SAP MM field where you don’t need to do coding. I hope those suggestions will help you to choose your career.

I am looking forward to hearing you soon.

Your faithfully

Prashant

Task Response

7
The letter addresses the task requirements by providing reasons why the friend might not enjoy college, explaining the benefits of getting a job, and suggesting suitable job types. There are some minor grammatical errors and awkward phrasing, but overall the letter is clear and well-organized. To improve, focus on using more natural and varied language, and ensure grammatical accuracy throughout the letter.

Coherence & Cohesion

5
The letter is generally coherent, but the organization could be improved. Consider structuring your points more clearly with topic sentences and transitions. For example, in the second paragraph, clearly state your reason before providing supporting details. Also, ensure a smoother flow between paragraphs by using transitional phrases to connect ideas.

Lexical Resource

5
The vocabulary is adequate for the task, but there's room for improvement in using more precise and varied language. For instance, instead of repeatedly using 'good,' try synonyms like 'proficient' or 'skilled.' Also, consider using more specific vocabulary related to career advice and job opportunities to enhance the impact of your suggestions.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

5
The letter contains several grammatical errors that affect clarity. Pay close attention to verb tense consistency (e.g., 'I heard' should align with the present context). Also, work on sentence structure to avoid awkward phrasing (e.g., 'you are not enjoying to continue' should be 'you are not enjoying continuing'). Proofreading carefully for subject-verb agreement and correct article usage will also improve accuracy.
