Well, actually I listen to music most of the time, not only in my leisure time but also while doing tasks or even studying. It's been a long time for me to listen to music, especially after doing things that are stressful for me. After a long day at school, I go back home and listen to music. It relaxes me so much. Also, I play guitar, which allows me to express a lot of my feelings.

Pronunciation

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

Task Response

The response is comprehensive and directly addresses the question, providing a clear explanation of when and why the speaker listens to music. The answer is well-elaborated with specific examples and personal experiences, demonstrating a strong command of the English language.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is generally fluent, but there are some minor hesitations and a slight lack of natural flow. The ideas are connected, but could be linked more smoothly. Try to minimize pauses and use linking words more effectively to improve coherence.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate and appropriate for the topic. The phrase 'dorm tasks' is slightly unnatural; consider using 'chores' or 'household tasks' instead. Overall, the vocabulary is sufficient but could be more varied and precise. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate, but there are a few errors. For example, 'It's already a long time for me to listen to music' could be improved to 'It has been a long time since I started listening to music'. Also, 'back to home' should be 'go back home'. Focus on using a wider range of grammatical structures with greater accuracy.
