Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is average. It is understandable but not always accurate. Focusing on the rhythm and stress patterns of English could prove beneficial.

Task Response

The response addresses the prompt by identifying a person and a skill, but it fails to develop the ideas fully. The explanation regarding how the skill was learned is quite vague and lacks specific details or examples. Furthermore, the response is incomplete, ending abruptly without addressing the final part of the prompt regarding why the person is admired. To improve, aim to expand on each bullet point with specific anecdotes or descriptive language, and ensure that you provide a complete answer that covers all requirements of the task. The response could be expanded as it currently feels quite brief.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is extremely short and fails to address the prompt fully. You did not provide enough detail to sustain a long turn (which is required for Part 2). The coherence is broken by abrupt transitions and an unfinished sentence at the end. To improve, you must use cohesive devices (e.g., 'Furthermore', 'As a result', 'Looking back') and ensure you expand on each bullet point in the prompt to reach the 1-2 minute mark.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is very basic and limited. There are errors in word choice, such as 'the Appos' (likely meaning Apple) and 'the best control in the economic field,' which is quite vague and lacks precision. To reach higher bands, you need to use topic-specific vocabulary related to business or leadership (e.g., 'visionary leadership,' 'strategic management,' 'entrepreneurial spirit') rather than general terms. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammatical structures are very simple and contain significant errors. You attempted to ask a question within your speech ('Why, how they learn this skill?') which was grammatically incorrect. There is a lack of complex sentence structures (subordinate clauses, perfect tenses, etc.). Focus on mastering subject-verb agreement and the correct formation of questions and past tense narratives.
