Pronunciation

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

Task Response

The answer directly addresses the question by describing the location and duration of residence. It also provides some personal feelings, which adds depth. However, it could be improved by including more specific details about the place itself, such as its characteristics, surroundings, or what makes it unique. Elaborating on why the previous house was more enjoyable would also strengthen the response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is generally coherent but contains some repetition and self-correction. The phrase 'I've moved here two years ago' is a common error, and the ending 'move there' is ambiguous. To improve, use clear cohesive devices and avoid repetition.

Lexical Resource

Vocabulary is basic and lacks precision. 'Ex-house' is non-standard; 'previous house' is better. The range is limited. To improve, use more descriptive adjectives and varied expressions. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical errors include 'I've moved here two years ago' (should be 'I moved here two years ago') and inconsistent tenses. The sentence structure is simple. To improve, practice using past simple and present perfect correctly and incorporate complex structures.
