Pronunciation

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

Task Response

The response identifies a daily routine as something the speaker cannot live without and lists some activities within that routine. To improve, provide more specific details about why this routine is so essential and how it impacts your life. Elaborate on the emotional or practical consequences of not being able to follow this routine. The response could be expanded as it currently feels quite brief.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is somewhat coherent, but there is some repetition ('Without whom I can't live' is repeated). The organization is generally understandable, but could be improved by providing a clearer structure. Try to avoid unnecessary repetition and use linking words to connect your ideas more smoothly.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate for the task, but it lacks precision and variety. The speaker uses common words and phrases. To improve, try to incorporate more specific and descriptive vocabulary related to daily routines and the feeling of being addicted to them. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammatical range is limited, and there are some errors ('without whom' is not used correctly). The accuracy is inconsistent. Focus on using a wider range of grammatical structures and ensuring that your sentences are grammatically correct. Pay attention to the correct use of prepositions and relative pronouns.
