coherence cohesion
Your letter has a clear structure with an introduction, body, and closing, but use paragraphs to separate different ideas for enhanced readability.
coherence cohesion
Your ideas are organized logically, even though some transitions could be smoother. Consider using linking words such as 'furthermore' or 'in addition' to connect sentences seamlessly.
task achievement
The letter fulfills the task requirements well by introducing yourself, stating your interest, and asking questions. However, you could enhance task response by providing more details about your sporting interests or potential contribution to the sports club community.
task achievement
Maintain a suitable formal tone throughout the letter. While the tone is mostly consistent, avoiding contractions ('I am' instead of 'I'm') and using a more formal register will improve the tone for correspondence with a manager.
