Now I will describe a piece of advice I have recently received. A few days ago, I received some advice from my friend. My friend asked me to learn English to improve my skills because it's important for my work. First, I will study for the IELTS, and my target is 5, which is about 6.4 skills. It's not difficult for me, but I spend a lot of time learning English. I think it's hard for me because I don't have much time. I will try to learn English next year. I want to be proficient in English. I need to save money to be a student in the future.

Now I will describe a piece of advice I have recently received. A few days ago I received one advice from my friend. My friend asked me to learn English to improve some skills because it’s a half for my work. It’s the first I will study IELTS and my target is 5, it’s about 6.4 skills. It’s not difficult for me but I spend many time to learn English. I think it’s hard for me because I don’t have too much time. I will try to learn English next year. I want to be a good English person. But I want to learn English. I need to save money to be a student in the future.

Pronunciation

5.5

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 is relevant to the topic and provides some personal details. However, it could be improved by elaborating on the advice received, focusing more on the advice itself and its impact, and providing more specific examples. Consider structuring your response more clearly, separating the advice from your reaction and plans. Adding more details about your friend's reasoning behind the advice would also strengthen the response. The response could be expanded as it currently feels quite brief.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable, but there are moments of hesitation and repetition. The structure could be improved by using clearer topic sentences and transitions between ideas. Practice speaking more smoothly and confidently, focusing on a logical flow of ideas. Consider using more sophisticated linking words to connect your thoughts.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but lacks precision and range. Words like "a half for my work" are unclear. Try to use more specific and descriptive vocabulary to express your ideas more effectively. Learning synonyms and more academic vocabulary will improve your score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are several grammatical errors, such as incorrect article usage ("a few days ago I received one advice"), and issues with subject-verb agreement. While the message is conveyed, the grammatical accuracy needs improvement. Focus on practicing sentence structures and common grammatical rules to enhance accuracy.
