For me, I'm still a student in my school, and you know I'm 17, so I do not work; I just study. My major is programming, and my dream is to learn 10 programming languages and create an application from it to generate revenue. I chose this major because it's very technical and relevant to our world today. The knowledge I gain is important. Yeah, I'm focused.

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 response is satisfactory, but it could benefit from more detailed explanations and elaboration. Consider expanding on the challenges of programming and your future plans, providing specific examples to illustrate your points.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is mostly fluent, with only a few minor hesitations. The structure is a bit disorganized, particularly in the response to the major question. Try to plan your answers beforehand to improve coherence and flow. The phrase 'I'm fucked' is inappropriate for this context; replace it with something more suitable, such as 'I'm determined' or 'I'm committed'.

Lexical Resource

Vocabulary is adequate but could be more precise and sophisticated. The phrasing 'very, very technical' is somewhat repetitive. Try to use more specific and descriptive vocabulary to showcase your range. For example, instead of 'get my revenue from it,' you could say 'monetize it' or 'generate income from it'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammar is mostly accurate, but there are some minor errors and inconsistencies. The sentence 'That is that the knowledge took over' is grammatically incorrect and unclear. Work on sentence structure and ensure subject-verb agreement. Practice using a wider range of grammatical structures, such as complex sentences and passive voice, to demonstrate your grammatical proficiency.
