Your pronunciation is very good. Aim to refine subtleties and intonation to further improve.

Task Response

This is a good start to answering the question. Consider expanding on why you feel more comfortable and confident when handwriting. Providing specific examples or details would strengthen your response and make it more engaging.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is fluent and coherent. There is a natural flow to the response, and the ideas are presented logically. Minor improvements could be made by using more sophisticated linking words or phrases to connect the ideas more smoothly, but this is not necessary for a band 9 score.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is appropriate and accurate. Words like "comfortable" and "confident" are used effectively. More sophisticated vocabulary could be used to elevate the response, but the current vocabulary is sufficient for a high band score. Consider using synonyms for 'comfortable' and 'confident' to show a wider range of vocabulary.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is accurate and error-free. The sentence structure is simple but effective. The use of a subordinate clause ("because I feel much more comfortable...") demonstrates good grammatical range. No improvements are needed here.
