Male Female

Before, mainly after my exams. I passed out from exhaustion after school. I had a three-month holiday where I developed the habit of sleeping during the day. It became my daily routine to sleep during the day, but now I've really turned it around because getting into the habit of sleeping during the day really affects our daily routine. Uh, for me, it was a big problem. My sleep schedule was really hampered, uh, as I wasn't able to get sleep at night. And I used to have headaches, I think almost every day, so I had to change my habits.

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

Task Response

The student provides a detailed and relevant answer to the question, describing their past habit of sleeping during the day and the negative consequences. However, the answer could be more concise and focused on the present situation. For example, the student could explicitly state whether they still sleep during the day or not.

Fluency & Coherence

The student speaks with some fluency, but there are moments of hesitation and repetition, particularly in the middle of the answer. The answer is generally coherent, but the structure could be improved by using more clear transitions between ideas. For example, the student could use phrases like "However," "On the other hand," or "As a result."

Lexical Resource

The student uses a good range of vocabulary, including words like "exhaustion," "hampered," and "routine." However, there are some instances of less precise language, such as "passed out" and "turned it around." The student could use more specific and sophisticated vocabulary to express their ideas more effectively.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The student demonstrates a good grasp of grammar, but there are a few errors, such as "turn'ed" and "schedul." The student could improve their accuracy by paying attention to verb tenses and subject-verb agreement. The student also uses a variety of grammatical structures, but could expand their range by using more complex sentences and clauses.
