The response addresses the question directly and provides relevant examples to illustrate both planning and spontaneity. To further enhance the answer, consider expanding on the reasons behind your preferences for each approach, adding depth and personal insight.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is generally coherent, but there are some pauses and hesitations that affect the fluency. The ideas are connected, but the transitions could be smoother. To improve, practice speaking more continuously and use linking words to connect your thoughts more effectively.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but could be more varied and precise. The word 'spontaneous' is used repeatedly. Try to use synonyms or different expressions to convey the same meaning. For example, instead of always saying 'spontaneously,' you could use 'on the spur of the moment' or 'without planning.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are some grammatical errors, such as 'I'm planning something just for future' and 'when I'm doing practices.' These errors affect the clarity of the answer. Focus on using correct prepositions and verb tenses. For example, 'I'm planning something for the future' and 'when I'm practicing.'
