Task Achievement / Task Response — Band 6.5

The letter covers all three bullet points required by the prompt: it describes the job, explains why it is suitable, and provides instructions on how to apply. The tone is appropriate for a letter to a friend. However, the development of ideas is somewhat limited. For instance, while you mention the job is in 'graphics designing', the description of the work remains quite general. To improve, you could provide more specific details about the company or the nature of the projects to make the recommendation more persuasive. Overall, the task is addressed adequately.

Coherence and Cohesion — Band 6.5

The letter is logically organized into clear paragraphs, each addressing a specific part of the prompt. The progression of ideas is easy to follow. You use some cohesive devices such as 'Furthermore' and 'I'd really appreciate it if', which help connect the sentences. However, the flow is occasionally hindered by minor errors in sentence structure and word choice. The use of paragraphing is appropriate for a letter format, and the overall structure is coherent.

Lexical Resource — Band 5.5

The vocabulary is generally adequate for the task, allowing you to convey your message clearly. However, there are several spelling errors, such as 'firmof', 'opining', 'beadsed', 'similer', 'freelansing', 'mlonth', 'finf', and 'officel'. These errors are frequent and detract from the professional quality of the writing. While you attempt to use topic-specific vocabulary like 'probation period' and 'freelancing', the high frequency of spelling mistakes limits the score in this criterion.

Grammatical Range and Accuracy — Band 5.5

You demonstrate a mix of simple and complex sentence structures. While the meaning is generally clear, there are several grammatical inaccuracies, such as 'This is the opining of graphics designing which would see very suitable' (should be 'seems') and 'This is job role asks for better experience' (should be 'This job role'). Additionally, there are issues with article usage and prepositions. While these errors do not prevent communication, they occur frequently enough to impact the overall accuracy of the text.
