Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is quite good. Working on consistency and tackling difficult sounds may enhance clarity.

Task Response

4.5

The response adequately addresses the prompt and provides relevant details about the type of dwelling and some aspects of it. To improve, consider elaborating on personal experiences within the house or expanding on your aspirations for independent living. Adding more descriptive details would enhance the response. The response could be expanded as it currently feels quite brief.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent and well-structured. The slight hesitation before "bathrooms" is barely noticeable and doesn't detract significantly from the fluency. Minor improvement could be made by connecting the two sentences more smoothly, perhaps using a conjunction like 'although' or 'but' to better link the present living situation with future aspirations.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is appropriate and accurate, showing a good range of words such as "well-maintained." More sophisticated vocabulary could be used to describe the house or the feeling of living there. For example, instead of 'five-story house,' you could use 'a spacious five-story home' or 'a substantial five-story residence.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is largely accurate. The only minor error is the omission of 'to' before 'move out' in the second sentence. This is a small error and doesn't significantly impact the overall grammatical accuracy. The use of complex sentence structures is good, showing a range of grammatical competence.
