This is a good letter. It covers the task, is correctly structured, and you used an appropriate style and vocabulary. There are some sentences that need a change in structure (see comments underlined in blue) and there are also repetitions of the same word, which should be avoided. Overall, looks like a Band 6.5 – 7 letter.
