Your text is good at starting and ending with a full of meaning. However, each of your paragraphs, especially in the body part are not really strong.
ReplyDeletePlease consider and check more about the use of preposition. I found it as so complexing in each of your sentence.
- Second paragraqh has a loose meaning by using many words and complextion of combining sentences with clause error.
- "General Manager" is it possible to use "Director" instead, because GM is mostly used with company, not association or club.
- Paragraph 3: She continue; this event...; word error "meat?"
- Paragraph 5 "rising???"
- Paragraph 7 "he remarked". It is not used at the end of speech as I use to read. Not sure.
