Task Response

The answer is partially on topic, but it lacks detail and depth. It mentions stress from negative comments as a disadvantage and awareness of world news as an advantage, but these points are not fully explored. Consider expanding on the advantages and disadvantages with more specific examples and a broader range of points. Try to maintain a more general perspective, rather than focusing on the feelings of a single person.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is somewhat disjointed and lacks a clear structure. The speaker struggles to express their ideas fluently, resulting in some hesitant phrasing and incomplete sentences. A more organized approach, perhaps outlining advantages and disadvantages separately, would improve coherence. Practice speaking more smoothly and connecting ideas with transition words.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is basic and lacks precision. Words like "stressful," "discourages," and "veer" are not used accurately. The speaker needs to expand their vocabulary and use more precise and sophisticated language to express their ideas effectively. Focus on learning synonyms and more nuanced vocabulary related to social media and its impact.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical errors are present, including incorrect tense usage, subject-verb agreement issues, and preposition errors. The sentence structures are simple and repetitive. The speaker needs to improve their grammatical accuracy and range. Focus on practicing different sentence structures and tenses to improve fluency and accuracy.
