Band 4+: Do you enjoy traveling to new places?

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

The answer directly addresses the question and provides specific reasons for the preference, such as the interest in exploring with friends and the specific attractions of the USA. However, the response contains some repetitive phrasing, particularly regarding the idea of enjoying new places. To improve, try to vary your vocabulary to avoid redundancy and aim for a more cohesive flow between sentences. Instead of stating a general fact like 'Everyone likes to travel,' focus more on personal experiences or specific motivations to make the response sound more natural and less like a generalization.

The response is quite repetitive, particularly the phrase 'All people like to travel/enjoy travel.' This repetition prevents the flow from being natural. To improve, try to use cohesive devices (like 'Furthermore,' 'Moreover,' or 'Specifically') to link your ideas rather than repeating the same sentiment. You also tend to jump from a general statement to a specific example (the USA) without a smooth transition.

The vocabulary is very basic and limited. There is a significant error in the raw transcript where 'Ikeans' was likely intended to be 'lakes' (as seen in the refined version), which shows a lack of precision. To reach a higher band, you should use more descriptive adjectives. Instead of saying 'interesting,' you could use 'fascinating,' 'exhilarating,' or 'eye-opening.' Instead of 'like,' try 'am passionate about' or 'am fond of.'

There are several grammatical errors that affect clarity. For example, 'I enjoyed to travel' should be 'I enjoy traveling,' and 'interesting with my friends' is an incomplete thought/incorrect structure. You are mostly using simple sentence structures. To improve, practice using complex sentences (e.g., 'If I had the chance, I would visit the USA because...') and ensure your subject-verb agreement and verb tenses are consistent.
