There are definitely differences between my relationships with friends and other people. A friend is someone who knows me well, and I feel more comfortable being myself around them. I'm more confident sharing my thoughts, feelings, and problems with friends. With other people, I might be more hesitant or shy because I don't know them as well. I'm unsure how they might react to what I say. But with friends, I know they understand me and my personality, so I feel more supported and open to sharing with them.

Task Response

The student successfully identifies the differences between relationships with friends and other people. They provide clear examples of how they behave differently in each situation. However, the answer could be more concise and focused on the core differences rather than elaborating on the reasons behind them. For example, instead of explaining why they are more confident with friends, they could simply state that they are more open and comfortable sharing with them.

Fluency & Coherence

The student speaks with some hesitation and uses fillers like "uh" and "min." The answer is generally coherent, but the structure could be improved by using more transitions and connecting ideas more smoothly. For example, they could use phrases like "on the other hand" or "in contrast" to highlight the differences between the two types of relationships.

Lexical Resource

The student uses a good range of vocabulary, including words like "confident," "hesitant," and "personality." However, there are some instances of repetition, such as "know about me" and "know us." They could use more varied and precise vocabulary to express their ideas.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The student demonstrates a good understanding of grammar, but there are some minor errors, such as "keeping myself backward" and "they will help us a lot than other people." They could improve their accuracy by paying attention to prepositions and comparative structures.
