Task Achievement
The letter should directly address the task of recommending a friend for a specific job at the summer school, including how well you know the person, their qualifications and experience, and why they're suitable. Your letter missed providing structured information about these aspects.
Coherence & Cohesion
Work on structuring your points clearly throughout the letter. Start with an introduction, followed by separate paragraphs for each of the required points (how well you know your friend, their qualifications and experience, and why they're suitable for the job), and then a conclusion.
Coherence & Cohesion
Make sure to use correct and varied sentence structures, and pay attention to spelling and grammar to improve comprehension and presentation of ideas.
Task Achievement
Utilize a more formal and suitable writing tone for the context of a job application recommendation letter. Avoid using casual language and focus on a professional and respectful tone throughout.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
