Annotated response
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to ask for information about the seminar that you are conducting during the next week.
You could send the above-mentioned information to my e-mail address. I would like to receive it as soon as possible because of adequate preparation before the departure.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully, Athar Nafees
Overall assessment
The strongest aspect is the use of a correctly formatted formal letter with an appropriate opening and closing. The main limitation is that none of the four required content points (dates, programme, accommodation, and cost) is actually addressed, and the response is far shorter than the expected minimum, leaving the communicative purpose largely unachieved.
IELTS criteria
The letter fails to cover any of the four required bullet points about dates, programme, accommodation, and cost, and at 60 words it is severely under the minimum length, so the communicative task is only minimally attempted despite an appropriate formal register.
There is a basic letter structure with some linking phrases, but progression is mechanical and the ideas remain limited and underdeveloped because the required content is absent.
The vocabulary is adequate for a formal request, with phrases such as 'above-mentioned information' and 'looking forward to hearing from you', but the range is restricted and lacks the specificity the task demands.
Sentence forms are mostly simple and some attempts at complexity contain errors, such as 'because of adequate preparation before the departure', though meaning remains generally clear.
