Vocabulary Repetition:
No noticeable repetition! Great job!

Pronunciation

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

Task Response

The answer is relevant and provides a clear reason for the speaker's preference. To further enhance the response, consider expanding on the positive aspects or drawbacks of social media in general, or providing more specific examples.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is generally coherent, but there's a slight pause before 'It's rest, I think.' which disrupts the flow. Try to maintain a smoother delivery by thinking ahead slightly. Also, avoid filler words like 'um' or 'uh' to improve fluency.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but could be more precise. 'Takes not a big part' is a slightly awkward phrasing. Consider using more natural expressions. The word 'rest' is misused; 'relief' is more appropriate in this context. Expanding your vocabulary related to feelings and time management would be beneficial. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate, but there's a minor error: 'takes not a big part' should be 'does not play a big part' or 'doesn't play a significant role'. Pay attention to word order and common expressions to improve accuracy. Using a wider range of grammatical structures would also enhance your score.
