Overall assessment

Why this response received Band 7.0

The letter fully achieves its purpose, covering all three bullet points with a consistently polite and appropriate register, and Jim Brown's praise is well developed. The main limitation is language control: recurring grammatical slips and some awkward word choices reduce precision without obscuring the message.

IELTS criteria

How each score was decided

Task Achievement

7.5

The response covers all three prompt bullets with clear purpose, suitable formal register, and convincing detail, though the complaint about the booking system is developed only briefly.

Coherence and Cohesion

7.0

Ideas progress logically through the three bullet points with varied cohesive devices, though a few connectives such as 'And here' feel mechanical and the praising paragraph merges two ideas.

Lexical Resource

6.5

Vocabulary is generally adequate and sometimes precise ('carefulness', 'high professionalism'), but occasional awkward or inaccurate choices like 'requisted' and 'not willingly helpful' limit flexibility.

Grammatical Range and Accuracy

6.5

A range of structures is attempted, including relative clauses, but frequent errors such as 'my furniture... contain', lowercase 'i', and comma misuse show only partial control of accuracy.
