Explanation:

The author shares a personal experience (about her mother's English and her own perception) to convey a point. It's not about persuading to use different English forms (no call - to - action), not just for entertainment (no humorous or engaging - for - fun elements), and not about describing her career.

Answer:

to inform readers based on her personal experience
