Unfortunately, nowadays I do not have enough time because I'm a university student, which means I have a lot of assignments to do. That means I cannot spend the rest of my time with my friends, but we keep in touch every day through Instagram and Telegram and share news about what's going on in our lives.

Try using synonyms for the above words

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 addresses the question directly and provides a clear explanation for the limited time spent with friends. The answer is well-organized and includes relevant details about maintaining contact through social media. To further enhance the response, consider adding more specific examples or details about the types of activities you used to enjoy with your friends or hope to do in the future.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is generally coherent, but there are some minor hesitations and repetitions ('That means'). Try to vary sentence structure and use synonyms to avoid repetition. The flow is mostly natural, but could be improved with more varied connectors.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate for the topic, but could be more precise and varied. Using phrases like 'keep in touch' and 'what's going on' are good, but consider adding more sophisticated vocabulary related to friendship and communication. For example, instead of 'share every news,' you could say 'share updates' or 'exchange news'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate, but there are a few minor errors ('the rest of time' should be 'the rest of my time'). The range of structures is somewhat limited. Try to incorporate more complex sentence structures to demonstrate a wider grammatical range. For example, use relative clauses or conditional sentences.

To my mind, painting is generally mentally restorative because it forces me into meditative states while time just disappears. There’s nothing that refresh my mind better than a hover with brush.
