Dear Ellena Smith.

Good day. I am writing to inform you that my company is planning a team-building weekend retreat for my department. So, I want to invite you because I particularly enjoy working with you.

The purpose of this retreat are free transportation, health insurance, and accommodation, including hotel and meals. The event will be held on 24 of May, 2026 at Lafayette Hotel. I also attached the activities planned, for instance, the meeting, free time, games, and many more.

Do not forget to bring your personal medicine, gym clothes for the game activity, sandals, and shoes. If you have further questions, please contact me by replying to this email.

Best regards, Ann.

Task Response

4
The letter addresses the task but includes some irrelevant information (health insurance) and lacks detail in key areas such as the benefits of the retreat and the activities planned. To improve, focus on providing more specific and relevant details about the retreat's purpose and the activities, and ensure all information is accurate and appropriate. The letter falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

5
The letter's organization is somewhat basic. To improve coherence, consider expanding on the connections between ideas and providing more context. For example, elaborate on why you think Ellena would specifically benefit from the retreat. Also, ensure a smoother flow between paragraphs by using transitional phrases or sentences.

Lexical Resource

5
The vocabulary used is generally simple and functional. To enhance the lexical resource, try incorporating more varied and specific vocabulary related to team-building activities and the benefits of such retreats. For example, instead of 'games,' you could mention specific team-building exercises or recreational activities.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

5
There are noticeable grammatical errors that affect clarity. For example, 'The purpose of this retreat are...' should be 'is'. To improve, carefully proofread for subject-verb agreement, correct tense usage, and proper article usage. Vary sentence structures to demonstrate a wider range of grammatical skills.
