Task Response

The student initially provides information about their past education and work experience, which is not directly relevant to the question. However, they eventually answer the question by stating that they are currently pursuing higher education. The answer could be improved by directly stating that they are currently studying.

Fluency & Coherence

The student's speech is somewhat hesitant and contains several fillers (e.g., 'uh'). The answer is not very well organized, and the student repeats themselves at the end. The student could improve their fluency by practicing speaking more naturally and avoiding fillers.

Lexical Resource

The student uses a range of vocabulary, but some of it is not used accurately (e.g., 'purching' instead of 'pursuing'). The student could improve their lexical resource by focusing on using vocabulary accurately and expanding their vocabulary related to education and work.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The student makes several grammatical errors, including incorrect verb tenses (e.g., 'have complete' instead of 'have completed') and incorrect prepositions (e.g., 'in a screen order' instead of 'in order to'). The student could improve their grammatical accuracy by reviewing basic grammar rules and practicing using different grammatical structures.
