Honestly, I had loneliness, so I prefer to spend my time with people. In my work, I usually do teamwork to manage my job duties, and also in my leisure time. Like on the weekend, I try to hang out with my friends, even if it's just to go window shopping or get a coffee. Also, during my break time, I have lunch with my friends at work.

Pronunciation

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

Task Response

The response directly addresses the question and provides relevant details. The speaker elaborates on their preference with examples from both work and leisure time. To improve, consider varying sentence structure and vocabulary to enhance fluency and coherence.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is generally coherent, but there are some hesitations and repetitions ('I am I am') that slightly disrupt the flow. Using cohesive devices more effectively could improve the structure. For example, varying sentence structure and using transition words more deliberately would enhance coherence.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but could be more precise. Using synonyms for common words like 'do' and 'go' would demonstrate a broader lexical range. For example, instead of 'do teamwork,' consider 'collaborate on projects.' Instead of 'go hang out,' try 'socialize' or 'spend time.' Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are some grammatical errors, such as 'I had loneliness' (should be 'I felt lonely' or 'I experienced loneliness') and 'manage my some des' (should be 'manage some of my duties' or 'manage some of my tasks'). Correcting these errors and using a wider range of grammatical structures would improve the score. Pay attention to article usage and correct word order.
