Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is above average. However, you may find complexity in certain words challenging. Regular practice should aid in improvement.

Task Response

The answer begins to address the question by introducing family members, but it is incomplete and lacks elaboration. To improve, provide more details about each family member, such as their personalities, occupations, or your relationship with them. Ensure the response is fully developed and concludes naturally.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent and easy to follow, but there is a noticeable self-correction ('I'm just one of my brother is doing...') which disrupts fluency. To improve, avoid mid-sentence corrections by planning your response briefly before speaking. Also, try to extend your answer with more details about your family members to demonstrate fuller coherence.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is appropriate and clear ('small family', 'software engineering'), but it is quite basic and lacks precision or variety. To achieve a higher score, incorporate more descriptive and specific vocabulary, such as 'close-knit family', 'elder/younger brother', or 'pursuing a degree in software engineering'. This will show greater lexical flexibility.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate, but there is a significant error in the phrase 'I'm just one of my brother is doing' which is ungrammatical and confusing. The refined version corrects this to 'My brother is doing', which is accurate. To improve, practice using a wider range of structures, such as relative clauses (e.g., 'who is doing...') and ensure subject-verb agreement. Avoid such errors to move towards a higher band.
