grammar and vocabulary
There are minor grammatical errors such as "I'm droping" which should be "I'm dropping" and "I got a job of bookkeeper" which could be better phrased as "I got a job as a bookkeeper."
coherence and cohesion
Though paragraphs are used, having distinct paragraphs for the request about the language school and the invitation to visit Germany can improve clarity.
task achievement
The letter includes all the main points: congratulating on news, asking for a recommendation, and inviting the friend to Germany.
writing tone
The tone of the letter is friendly and informal, which suits writing to a friend.
