Band 7+: Do the children watch too much tv

Your pronunciation is above average. However, you may find complexity in certain words challenging. Regular practice should aid in improvement.

The student provides a clear and relevant answer to the question, stating that children watch less TV now compared to the past. They also offer a specific reason for this change, mentioning the popularity of video games on mobile phones. However, the answer could be further enhanced by providing a more detailed explanation of the impact of this change on children's lives or by offering a personal opinion on the matter. The response could be expanded as it currently feels quite brief.

The student speaks fluently with minimal hesitation and uses appropriate linking words like "Nowadays" to connect their ideas. The answer is well-organized and easy to follow. However, the use of "uh" indicates a slight hesitation, which could be improved by pausing briefly to gather thoughts.

The student uses a good range of vocabulary, including words like "consider", "prefer", and "mobile phones." However, the answer could benefit from more specific vocabulary related to the topic of children's media consumption, such as "screen time" or "digital entertainment."

The student demonstrates good grammatical accuracy with correct use of tenses and sentence structures. However, there is a minor grammatical error in the phrase "as compared to the past." It would be more accurate to say "compared to the past" or "compared to in the past." The student also uses a slightly informal phrase "rather than watching TV." While this is not incorrect, using a more formal phrase like "instead of watching TV" would be more appropriate for an IELTS exam.
