Dear Course Coordinator,

I am writing to ask for some information about a short course at your college.

I am interested in the Web Development course. I want to learn more about computers and programming because I hope to get a better job in the future.

I have some questions about the course. First, when does the course start? I also want to know what days and times the classes are. Second, how much is the course fee? Are there any extra costs for books or other materials?

Finally, I would like to know if I need any experience before joining the course. I am a beginner, so I want to know if this course is suitable for me.

Thank you for your time. I hope to hear from you soon.

Yours faithfully,

Reza Zakariya

Task Response

8
The letter appropriately satisfies all requirements of the task. It clearly states the course of interest (Web Development), explains the reason for taking it (to improve job prospects), and asks relevant questions about schedule, fees, and prerequisites. The tone is polite and professional, and the structure is logical. No improvements are necessary. The letter falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

8
The letter is well-organized and easy to follow. The message flows logically from introduction to specific questions. However, the paragraphing could be slightly more refined; for instance, the questions could be grouped more clearly into separate paragraphs for schedule, fees, and prerequisites. Consider using a more distinct structure to enhance readability.

Lexical Resource

6
The vocabulary is appropriate and clear, but it is somewhat simple and lacks variety. For a higher score, try using more precise or sophisticated terms, such as 'inquire about' instead of 'ask for,' or 'curriculum' instead of 'course.' Additionally, phrases like 'I hope to get a better job' could be rephrased more formally, e.g., 'I aim to enhance my career prospects.' Pay attention to vocabulary repetition to improve the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

8
The grammar is accurate and the letter uses a good range of sentence structures, including questions and conditional clauses. There are no significant errors. To improve, consider incorporating more complex structures, such as passive voice or relative clauses, e.g., 'I would also appreciate knowing whether any prior experience is required.'
