Band 7+: Do you spend too much time on social media?

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

The response directly addresses the question with a clear and well-explained answer. The candidate provides specific details and demonstrates a strong command of vocabulary and grammar.

The response is generally coherent and easy to follow. The speaker presents a clear narrative of their social media usage and subsequent actions. However, there are some hesitations and minor self-corrections ('six or five or five hours') that slightly affect the fluency. To improve, try to minimize pauses and practice speaking more smoothly.

The vocabulary is adequate and appropriate for the topic. The use of 'zombie' and 'doom scrolling' is effective. However, the range could be broader. Consider using more varied and precise vocabulary to describe your feelings and actions. For example, instead of 'harmful social media,' you could use 'addictive social media platforms' or 'distracting social media applications.'

The grammar is mostly accurate, but there are some errors. 'I was use social media too much time' should be 'I was using social media too much.' 'I have to look in' should be 'I had to look inward.' 'I never download against this harmful social media' should be 'I will never download these harmful social media apps again.' Focus on using correct verb tenses and prepositions. Review basic grammar rules and practice speaking with attention to accuracy.
