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 the topic by describing a businessperson and his business, but it lacks specific details about how you know him and the reasons for his success are not fully developed. To improve, provide more concrete examples of his success, such as specific achievements or impacts, and elaborate on your personal connection to him. Also, ensure you cover all parts of the prompt, including how you knew him and a more detailed explanation of why he is successful. The response could be expanded as it currently feels quite brief.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer has a basic structure but lacks smooth transitions and cohesive devices. There is some repetition ('he always...') and an unfinished sentence ('If I am a talk about...'). The ending is abrupt with 'you you'. To improve, use linking words like 'firstly', 'moreover', 'in addition', and ensure each idea flows naturally into the next. Practice speaking without self-correction or hesitation.

Lexical Resource

Vocabulary is adequate but limited and imprecise. Terms like 'social interpreter person', 'Grammar Bank' (likely 'Grameen Bank'), and 'cozy person' are unclear or incorrect. There is some attempt at specific vocabulary ('social economist', 'welfare finances'), but overall range is narrow. To improve, learn more precise business-related vocabulary (e.g., 'microfinance', 'entrepreneur', 'empowerment') and avoid vague words like 'special' or 'different ways'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammar is mostly understandable but contains several errors. Examples: 'started their business' (should be 'his'), 'he always give' (should be 'gives'), 'If I am a talk about' (incorrect structure). There is limited use of complex structures; most sentences are simple or compound. To improve, practice subject-verb agreement, use past tense consistently, and incorporate a mix of simple, compound, and complex sentences.
