Something that made me feel proud is supporting my parents when I could step into the final year of high school. I spent much time and effort learning and taking mock tests at my school. It lasted for months. When I started this, I had some difficulties. I just asked for help and really valued the support from friends, family, and the high school mock tests. Besides that, my parents were always by my side, encouraging me to be self-sufficient, which helped me feel confident and prepared for an important exam. I feel very proud of this because it is the greatest motivation for me to pursue my path.

Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is average. It is understandable but not always accurate. Focusing on the rhythm and stress patterns of English could prove beneficial.

Task Response

The response is quite brief and lacks detail in several areas. Consider expanding on the challenges faced during your studies and providing more specific examples of how you overcame them. Elaborating on the support received from friends and family, and the specific ways your parents encouraged your self-sufficiency, would strengthen the response. Adding details about the exam itself and the outcome would also enhance the narrative and demonstrate a more complete picture of your achievement. The response could be expanded as it currently feels quite brief.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable, but the fluency could be improved. There are some noticeable hesitations and unnatural phrasing. Work on smoother transitions between ideas and practice speaking more naturally. Consider using a wider range of cohesive devices to link your ideas more effectively.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. While the message is clear, using more precise and varied vocabulary would enhance the response. For example, instead of 'flattened for months,' consider a more descriptive phrase like 'extended over several months.' Also, 'self-affidinate' is not a standard English word; consider replacing it with 'self-reliant' or 'independent'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are several grammatical errors throughout the response, including incorrect word order ('Something made I feel proud'), incorrect tense ('It's flattened'), and inaccurate preposition usage. Focus on improving grammatical accuracy and expanding the range of grammatical structures used. Practice using different sentence structures to make your speech more varied and sophisticated.
