Pronunciation

6.5

Your pronunciation is above average. However, you may find complexity in certain words challenging. Regular practice should aid in improvement.

Task Response

The answer is fluent and covers the question well. Consider adding specific examples of how social media helps with work or other aspects of your life to further enhance the response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent and mostly fluent. There is some repetition ("in my life, in different aspects of life, of my life") which could be improved by more concise phrasing. The overall flow is good, though.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate and mostly accurate. Words like "integral" and "accomplish" show a good range. However, more precise vocabulary could be used in places. For example, instead of 'make relationship,' using 'build relationships' or 'maintain connections' would be more accurate and sophisticated. The phrase 'age of times' is unclear and should be replaced.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammar is mostly accurate, but there are a few minor errors. The sentence 'I make relationship with friends through social media' is grammatically incorrect. The repetition and slightly awkward phrasing in the final part of the answer also affect the grammatical score. More attention to subject-verb agreement and sentence structure would improve the score.
