Dear Daniel,

I hope your doing well. I am writing this letter regarding accommodation. First of all, congratilations for your offer. When I saw your letter, I felt happy. I stayed 4 years in United Kingdom and this university, my was university as you know. PTS University has a huge garden, I believe that you can like it. The university is marvelous, you can feel great.

I would like to advice about my experiences. I believe that this important choice for you. When I go to the university, I lived in London. That London is not cheap is an undeniable fact. Therefore, you should find a affordable place.

I want that you do not do any mistakes about accommodation so you should use a local mobile application. The application called SB. By the way, this app is user-friendly for pupils. If you utilize the app you will not do any mistake. I hope you find suitable place for you.

I look forward hearing good news from you.

Have a nice day

Good luck

Task Response

The letter partially addresses the task by describing where the writer lived during university and recommending the use of a mobile application for finding accommodation. However, more details on the writer's living situation and specific advice on common mistakes in choosing accommodation could enhance the response.

Lexical Resource

There is an attempt to use a range of vocabulary, but some words are used incorrectly or inappropriately. Work on expanding your vocabulary and using words more precisely to improve lexical resource.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

While there is an effort to use a variety of sentence structures, there are several grammatical errors throughout the letter. Pay attention to subject-verb agreement, verb tenses, and sentence construction to enhance grammatical accuracy.
