Try using synonyms for the above words

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 addresses the question directly and provides a clear explanation of the change in attitude towards studying. The answer could be improved by providing more specific examples or details to further illustrate the reasons for the shift in perspective.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is somewhat coherent, but there are noticeable hesitations and repetitions ('as I as I'). The flow could be improved by reducing pauses and using linking words more effectively. Try to avoid unnecessary repetitions and maintain a smoother delivery.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. The range is limited, and the word choice is basic. To improve, try to incorporate more varied and precise vocabulary related to education and personal feelings. For example, instead of 'hated,' you could use 'disliked intensely' or 'loathed.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is generally understandable, but there are some errors and awkward phrasing ('in those and in the school'). The sentence structure is simple. To improve, focus on using a wider range of grammatical structures and ensuring accuracy in verb tenses and prepositions. For example, rephrase 'in those and in the school' to 'at school.'
