Sorry again for giving you an under 7 estimated score. I am not an examiner and that's purely my personal feelings. For my posted essay, I spent about 2 hours on it although I didn't search internet for some information. I probably could not present such an essay in the real test. Also, as I rely to...

Re: tax for education
Thank you Johnson.
Your comments are very helpful.
Most of this piece is not my work but Simon's.
I tried to reorganize his words.
What do you think about changing "conviction" to "understanding"?

Re: How to address your employer in a letter?
"Mr. Smith" is the appropriate choice because you definitely know the name of your boss.
You use "Sir/Madam" only when you don't know the name of the person who you are writing to.
