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 answer addresses all parts of the topic, including who the person is, their appearance, character, and reasons for admiration. However, the response is quite brief and lacks depth and specific details. To improve, you could expand on each point with more descriptive language and personal anecdotes. For example, describe a specific situation where your mother's advice or support was particularly meaningful, or elaborate on her appearance with more vivid details. This will make your answer more engaging and fully developed. The response could be expanded as it currently feels quite brief.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is organized logically, covering all four points of the topic. However, the response is very brief and lacks development. There is no use of cohesive devices to link ideas, and the answer ends abruptly. To improve, expand on each point with more details and examples, and use linking words like 'Moreover', 'In addition', or 'For instance' to create a smoother flow.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is basic and repetitive (e.g., 'kind', 'hard', 'good'). There is an error in the raw answer: 'She has a working and passion person' which is not idiomatic. The refined version corrects this to 'She is a hardworking and passionate person', but the original lacks precision. To improve, use a wider range of descriptive adjectives and phrases, such as 'compassionate', 'dedicated', 'resilient', or 'a source of inspiration'. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate but simple, with a limited range of structures. There are minor errors in the raw answer, such as 'She has a working and passion person' (incorrect word form) and 'super me' (should be 'supports me'). The refined version corrects these, but the original lacks complex sentences. To improve, incorporate a mix of simple, compound, and complex sentences, and use a variety of tenses and structures (e.g., relative clauses, conditionals).
