[another shortish email] could you help?

Dear Users,

May I ask for your help? Could you look at the following email and identify the errors? I've highlighted the areas I'm particularly uncertain about.

Hi Bob,


In a nutshell:


Unfortunately, Anna is the weakest student in that group. Unlike Linda, Sue, Tom (or even Pam) she hasn't really made that much of a progress. While grammar is clearly her Achilles's heel, she also often falls back to her L1 and struggles with pronunciation. Having said that, it's not that she hasn't made any progress whatsoever, but compared to the above-mentioned students, hers is simply less obvious. I think Anna's goals are different from Linda's, for instance. Linda's objective is to polish her language skills, which are already at a higher level, whereas Anna's goal is to simply get the message across in whatever way possible. Thus, she often sacrifices correctness and pronunciation for the sake of simply putting the language items together. Moreover, she's the only one who sort of struggles with following the instructions in class. I usually have to approach her and explain what I'm expecting of her.


She also mentioned to me that 2 hours a week is simply not enough for her, and I tend to agree with that opinion.


On the bright side, she's definitely quite committed to improving her language skills and I have to give her a lot of credit for making efforts. As I said, those efforts are more focused on getting the message across, rather than using "proper" Polish, but it's the effort that matters.


Hope this helps and is explicit enough.


If you need more information, just drop me a line.


Best,
