Band 6+: Do you plan to live there in the future?

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

The answer directly addresses the question and provides a clear 'no' followed by relevant reasons. The candidate elaborates on their current situation and future aspirations, which shows a willingness to extend the response. However, the response is somewhat repetitive, particularly the phrase 'I am not planning to live there in the future.' To improve, try to use cohesive devices or synonyms to avoid repeating the same sentence structure. Additionally, instead of repeating the core answer, use that space to provide more specific details about the new country or the type of lifestyle being sought to enhance the flow and sophistication of the response.

The speaker is able to answer the question directly, but there is significant repetition of ideas and phrases (e.g., repeating 'I am not planning to live there in the future' and 'I will go to another country'). This makes the response feel circular rather than progressive. To improve, try to use cohesive devices like 'Instead,' 'Furthermore,' or 'Ultimately' to link your ideas without repeating the same sentence structure.

The vocabulary used is very basic and repetitive (e.g., using 'house' and 'country' multiple times). While the meaning is clear, a higher band score requires more precise and varied vocabulary. Instead of 'big and expensive house,' you could use 'spacious, luxury villa' or 'high-end property.' Instead of 'working money,' you could use 'hard-earned income' or 'personal savings.' Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

The speaker relies almost exclusively on simple sentence structures (Subject + Verb + Object). There is a lack of complex sentences (using although, because, which, etc.). There were also minor errors in the raw transcript, such as 'at the other country' instead of 'in another country.' To reach a higher band, practice combining short sentences into complex ones, for example: 'Since I have already relocated to a different country for my exams, I don't see myself returning to my hometown anytime soon.'
