Talking about my passion in the past, I find I was an absolutely passionate person, especially during Ramadan. During that time, I completed a full course, a full IELTS course, within just 15 days, and I can't believe I did it. Additionally, I've been learning English for six years, but now I'm not doing it due to some career factors. That's why I think my patience was at its prime back then. On the other hand, I'm not a consistent person these days, but I am doing well despite my laziness.

Task Response

The answer is good, but it could be improved by directly addressing the prompt's question about patience. While the example of completing an IELTS course in 15 days demonstrates dedication, it's not explicitly linked to patience. Try to explicitly connect your past actions to the concept of patience and how it compares to your current level of patience. Elaborate on the reasons for your inconsistency now and how that relates to your patience levels. Adding a concluding sentence summarizing your overall change in patience would strengthen the response. The response could be expanded as it currently feels quite brief.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable, but the structure could be improved. There are some instances of hesitant speech and repetition ('and additionally what's more is'). A clearer organizational structure would enhance fluency. Consider using more transitional phrases to connect ideas smoothly. For example, instead of 'but on the other hand,' you could use 'however' or 'in contrast'.

Lexical Resource

Vocabulary is adequate, but more precise word choices would improve the score. Phrases like 'prime in before in back then' are awkward. Consider using more sophisticated synonyms and collocations. For example, instead of 'doing my well,' use 'managing well' or 'making good progress'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are several grammatical errors, such as 'my patience was a prime in before in back then.' While the meaning is generally clear, more accurate grammar is needed for a higher score. Focus on subject-verb agreement and correct use of prepositions and tenses. Practice using a wider range of grammatical structures, such as complex sentences and passive voice.
