Dear Mr. Robinson,

I am a frequent visitor of your bookshop and I have always been a patronizer since you opened it.I am writing to recommend a guest speaker for an the upcoming event entitled “Let the Books Hear You” that was posted on the right side green wall near to the Fiction section of your store.

I highly suggest to please consider Mr. Alexandra De Vous as a perfect role for it. As a person who known him for 15 years , he is a well-devoted communicator and speaker of various events. He hosted and guessed to different prestige and platforms both local and international. He has had met well-known people from different disciplines and he incorporoted everything he learns from them.Given from that fact, all of his knowledge ,experience and expertise would be a big factor and additonal impact to your event to succeed.

Morevoer, other people would be interested to join the show because he is also a popular content creator. He is known by teenagers and other social influencers as well.In fact , some book worms also knew him.This would be his fifth time guesting in a bookshop if this will push through. .

Should you have any more questions or clarifications ,please do not hesite to text to my number at 00000 or reply to this email. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,

Task Response

The letter appropriately and sufficiently covers all requirements of the task. The suggested speaker is clearly identified, their potential contribution is explained, and the reasons for public interest are well articulated. There are a few minor lapses in formality and phrasing, but overall, the letter is well-written and persuasive. To improve, focus on refining sentence structure and word choice for a more polished and professional tone.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter is generally coherent, but the flow is occasionally disrupted by grammatical errors and awkward phrasing. Paragraphing is adequate, but could be improved to better organize the ideas. For example, the second paragraph could be split into two to separate the speaker's qualifications from how he incorporates knowledge. Focus on using clearer transitions between ideas to improve the overall flow.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is generally appropriate, but there are instances where more precise word choices could enhance the impact. For example, 'patronizer' is not the correct word; 'patron' would be more suitable. Consider expanding your range of vocabulary to express ideas more effectively and avoid repetition. Explore synonyms and more sophisticated language to elevate the writing.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The letter contains several grammatical errors that affect clarity. There are issues with verb tense ('known' instead of 'have known'), subject-verb agreement, and article usage ('a the upcoming event'). Sentence structure could also be improved for better clarity and flow. Review basic grammar rules and practice constructing more complex sentences accurately. Pay close attention to proofreading to catch and correct errors.
