I hate technology. I don't want technology in my life, so I changed my mind and I don't use fitness apps anymore because technology has a lot of bad impacts. It's not logical to use technology in our daily lives because it consumes a lot of time. We ruin our days by scrolling on TikTok or Instagram. So, I stopped using social media in my daily life. After realizing that I was consuming up to 13 hours on the internet, I understood that it was ruining my time. I'm an engineering student, and I have a really demanding schedule at university, so I have to find proper free time to maintain my mental health. But by scrolling on TikTok, I wasted all my time. It is not logical to use these types of applications and sources, so I changed my mind.

Pronunciation

7
Your pronunciation is quite good. Working on consistency and tackling difficult sounds may enhance clarity.

Task Response

5
The response addresses the topic but lacks specific details about a particular technology and the reasons for discontinuing its use. It focuses more on a general critique of technology and social media. Including a specific example of a fitness app and elaborating on the reasons for stopping its use, along with specific examples of how it impacted your time and schedule, would significantly improve the response.

Fluency & Coherence

6
The answer is coherent, but the fluency could be improved. There are some instances of repetition and self-correction. Try to speak more smoothly and confidently, pausing naturally between ideas rather than rushing through them. Practice speaking at a consistent pace.

Lexical Resource

6
Vocabulary is adequate, but could be more precise and varied. While the student uses words like "demanding" and "maintain my mental health," more sophisticated vocabulary would elevate the response. Consider using synonyms and more descriptive language to express your ideas more effectively.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

5
Grammar is mostly accurate, but there are some errors, particularly in sentence structure and tense consistency. For example, the phrase "I drop to somewhere all my time" is grammatically incorrect. Focus on improving sentence structure and ensuring consistent verb tenses for a more polished response. Practice using a wider range of grammatical structures.
