Try using synonyms for the above words

Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is quite good. Working on consistency and tackling difficult sounds may enhance clarity.

Task Response

The response addresses the prompt, but could benefit from more detail and elaboration. Consider expanding on the qualities of your friend and providing specific examples to illustrate your points. Adding more depth to your descriptions will enhance the overall quality of your answer. The response could be expanded as it currently feels quite brief.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is generally coherent, but there are some pauses and hesitations. The structure follows the prompt, but could be more developed. Try to expand on your ideas and provide more detail to enhance fluency. Use cohesive devices more effectively to link ideas.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but somewhat limited. Words like 'blunt' and 'reliable' are good, but the overall range could be improved. Try to use more varied and descriptive language to make your answer more engaging. For example, instead of just saying 'beautiful eyes,' describe what makes them beautiful. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are some grammatical errors, such as 'I know this person signs two years' which should be 'I have known this person for two years.' While the basic sentence structures are correct, there's room for improvement in using a wider range of grammatical structures and ensuring accuracy. Focus on using correct tenses and articles.
