Is this correct?

Areas studied: greetings, personal information, days of the week and months of the year

Full stop or no full stop?

Thank you in anticipation.

Full stop needed.

Thank you! I was 99% sure that was the case.

Could you also help with the punctuation in this sentence, please?

We are confident that with her enthusiastic approach, determination and her aim to always do her best, she will continue to do well in the future.

It's not incorrect but I would either add in an extra 'her'...

"We are confident that with her enthusiastic approach, her determination and her aim to always do her best, she will continue to do well in the future."

Or preferably lose one phrase you don't need...

"We are confident that with her enthusiastic approach and her determination to always do her best, she will continue to do well in the future."

Sorry, I disappeared. I think that does the job.

Preferably "always to do her best ..." I know split infinitives technically aren't wrong, but they sound so ugly.
