Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is quite good. Working on consistency and tackling difficult sounds may enhance clarity.

Task Response

The answer directly addresses the question and provides a clear, confident response with some elaboration. To improve, consider adding more specific examples or details about why you are good at telling jokes, such as how you learned this skill or a particular reaction from your audience. Additionally, ensure the response flows naturally by avoiding repetition (e.g., 'I am' and 'I have') and using a wider range of vocabulary.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent and easy to follow, with a clear structure. However, there is a minor error in the raw answer ('nearest' instead of 'with'), which causes a slight hesitation. To improve, ensure prepositions are used correctly and practice speaking without such errors.

Lexical Resource

Good use of idiomatic expression 'have a knack for' and specific vocabulary like 'dark humor'. The vocabulary is appropriate but could be more varied. Consider adding more descriptive words or examples to enhance lexical range.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate, but there is a significant error: 'nearest' should be 'with' (preposition error). This affects clarity. The sentence structure is simple. To improve, practice using a wider range of grammatical structures, such as complex sentences, and proofread for preposition accuracy.
