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

Task Response

The response directly addresses the question and provides a clear estimate of the time spent on social media. The answer is elaborated with specific examples of social media use, such as watching reels on Instagram and searching for movie clips related to your English literature studies. To further enhance the response, you could briefly mention the specific platforms you use most frequently or the types of content you engage with beyond movies and reels.

The response is generally fluent and coherent. The ideas are connected logically. However, there's a slight pause before mentioning the specific hours. To improve, try to minimize pauses and use linking words more effectively to connect ideas smoothly.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate and relevant to the topic. The phrase 'late meals' is a bit unclear and could be replaced with a more precise term like 'food-related content' or 'food videos'. To enhance lexical resource, try to incorporate more varied and specific vocabulary related to social media usage.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate with a few minor errors. 'Much of time' should be 'much time'. The sentence structure is relatively simple. To improve, try to use a wider range of grammatical structures, such as complex sentences, to express your ideas more precisely.
