Well, I don't have a strong opinion either way. I believe that every child needs encouragement from both their parents and teachers, and even their friends. A sense of recognition is very motivating, and it can foster their motivation to try again next time. I don't think it's necessary to give them expensive rewards like money or valuable things. Sometimes, just words of encouragement or a compliment can be enough. Even though these things seem small, they really matter and have a strong impact on children.

The student does not directly answer the question, but instead discusses the importance of encouragement from both parents and teachers. This shows a good understanding of the topic, but the answer lacks a clear stance on the relative importance of rewards from parents vs. teachers. The student could improve by explicitly stating their opinion on the matter.

The student speaks fluently with only a few minor hesitations. The answer is well-organized and coherent, with clear transitions between ideas. The student uses cohesive devices like 'and' and 'even' effectively.

Lexical Resource

The student uses a good range of vocabulary, including words like 'encouragement,' 'recognition,' and 'foster.' However, there are a few instances of less precise language, such as 'give try next time' and 'tiny things.' The student could improve by using more specific and sophisticated vocabulary.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The student demonstrates good grammatical control, but there are a few errors. For example, 'it is a necessary to give them expensive rewards' should be 'it is necessary to give them expensive rewards.' The student also uses the phrase 'despite those tiny things' which is grammatically incorrect. The student could improve by paying more attention to grammatical accuracy.
