What I find most impressive about her is her kindness and respect, particularly towards others. This is a significant aspect of Korean customs. I'm crazy about Korean food and luckily she enjoys cooking traditional dishes. Last year, I had a chance to visit her in Korea and experience her culture firsthand.

Task Response

The student could have elaborated on their personal connection with Chisoo and how her cultural background has influenced their friendship.

The student could improve their fluency by practicing speaking more naturally and avoiding filler words.

Lexical Resource
