Dear Sir or Madam,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to request further clarification regarding joining the Monics Sport Club.

I would like to inquire about what type of activities are provided for participants. Although I am keen on football and volleyball, I am interested in other athletic games because they allow me to be physically fit and energetic.

At the moment, I am employed as a Registered Nurse, and I would like to know what type of membership programmes are available as well as the fees and the schedule assigned for each class, so it will allow me to properly myself.

Furthermore, I would like to know if there are any introductory class put in place for beginners, and whether fees cover for the equipment needed to enroll or I have to make provision for them.

I hope my letter will be given due consideration. I look forward to your response.

Yours faithfully,

Aisha Idris

Task Response

The letter addresses all three bullet points from the task prompt effectively. The purpose of the letter is clear, and the information requested is relevant to the context. To improve and reach a higher band, ensure that all sentences are grammatically complete and logically finished; for example, the phrase 'so it will allow me to properly myself' is incomplete and lacks a verb (e.g., 'properly plan my schedule'). Additionally, minor grammatical refinements regarding subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'introductory class put in place' should be 'classes put in place') would enhance the overall polish of the response.

Coherence & Cohesion

The letter is logically organized, and the use of paragraphing is appropriate for the different points requested in the task. The progression of ideas is clear. However, some transitions could be smoother. For instance, the connection between being a nurse and needing the schedule could be more explicitly linked to 'work commitments' to improve the flow of logic.

Lexical Resource

You have used a good range of vocabulary such as 'request further clarification', 'keen on', and 'due consideration'. To reach a higher band, try to avoid repetitive phrasing (e.g., using 'I would like to' multiple times) and aim for more natural collocations. For example, instead of 'athletic games', 'sports' or 'physical activities' might sound more natural in this context.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The letter demonstrates a mix of simple and complex sentence structures. However, there are several grammatical inaccuracies that hinder the professional tone. Specifically, 'so it will allow me to properly myself' is an incomplete thought/phrase, and 'introductory class put in place' should be plural ('classes') or use an article ('an introductory class'). Additionally, 'cover for the equipment' should simply be 'cover the equipment'. Pay close attention to subject-verb agreement and ensuring that every sentence is syntactically complete.
