There are so many people I have met who have different talents. Here, I would like to talk about one of my friends, Essa, who studied with me at university. She is very good at designing dresses. I discovered this when she gifted me a dress that she stitched by hand. I was really surprised to see that dress because it was very nice, pink in color, and fitted perfectly. I told her that day to follow her passion. She was really passionate about costume design and stitching. After a few years, she started her own venture, and it became a great success. She is now the one who designs for several celebrities. Each and every celebrity promotes her brand. Now her brand is running very successfully. I think in our lives, everyone should follow their own passion. Only then can we achieve success.

Pronunciation

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

Task Response

The answer is well-organized and coherent, and it directly addresses the prompt. The description of the friend and her talent is clear. However, adding more details about the design process, the challenges she faced in starting her business, or specific examples of her celebrity clients would strengthen the response and make it more engaging. Consider expanding on the impact of her success, both personally and professionally.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent and well-structured. There is a natural flow to the narrative. Minor repetition and slight hesitations are present, but they do not significantly detract from the overall fluency. Consider using more sophisticated linking words and phrases to enhance the coherence even further (e.g., 'Furthermore', 'Moreover', 'In addition to this').

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate and appropriate for the task. The speaker uses a range of vocabulary related to fashion design and business success. While the vocabulary is functional, incorporating more precise and sophisticated vocabulary would elevate the response. For example, instead of 'very nice,' consider using more descriptive adjectives like 'exquisite,' 'elegant,' or 'stylish.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate, with a few minor errors. There are instances of incorrect verb tense and article usage. While the speaker demonstrates a range of grammatical structures, improving accuracy and using more complex grammatical structures would enhance the score. For example, the sentence 'I told her that day to follow her passion' could be improved to 'I encouraged her to pursue her passion that day.' Pay attention to subject-verb agreement and article usage.
