I have a lot of situations where I helped someone, but I choose one. I helped my little sister find her way at university and change her major because she had a lot of thoughts and confusion in her mind. I was interested in psychology and how people can understand simple things in their lives. I really influenced her for her future path because I first had this problem two years ago before my sister. That's why I felt really happy that she could do it instead of me.

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 response addresses the topic and provides some relevant information. To improve, elaborate more on the specific actions you took to assist your sister and provide more detail about the situation and her confusion. Additionally, expand on your feelings after helping her to provide a more complete and impactful response. The response could be expanded as it currently feels quite brief.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is generally understandable, but there are some hesitations and repetitions that affect the flow. The organization is present, but could be clearer with better transitions between ideas. To improve, try to minimize pauses and use linking words to connect your thoughts more smoothly.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate for the task, but it lacks precision and variety. The word 'majority' is used incorrectly; 'major' is the correct term. To enhance your lexical resource, try to use more specific and varied vocabulary related to the topic of helping others and academic choices.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate, but there are some errors that affect clarity. For example, 'I really influenced it for her for her future way' is awkward. To improve, focus on using a wider range of grammatical structures and ensuring accuracy in sentence formation. Pay attention to prepositions and word order.
