Band 4+: Do you use social media? If so, how much time do you spend on it each day?

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

The answer addresses the topic but lacks specificity. While you acknowledged the question, you did not provide a concrete amount of time (e.g., two hours, most of the afternoon) as requested. To improve, try to provide a direct answer first and then elaborate with details such as which platforms you use or why you spend that much time online. Avoid general statements about 'younger people' unless you use them to contrast your own specific habits.

The response is quite repetitive and lacks logical progression. You spent a significant portion of the answer commenting on the question itself ('I think it's a good idea for a question') rather than directly answering it. To improve, avoid 'filler' phrases that don't add meaning and try to use cohesive devices like 'Furthermore,' 'In addition,' or 'On the other hand' to expand your thoughts.

The vocabulary used is very basic and repetitive (e.g., using 'social media' and 'time' multiple times without variation). To reach a higher band, try to use synonyms or related collocations. Instead of 'spend a lot of time,' you could say 'I am constantly scrolling through my feeds' or 'I dedicate several hours a day to various platforms.'

There are significant grammatical errors in the raw transcript, particularly in word order and subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'more younger people much time they spend'). The sentence structure is quite simple and lacks complexity. Work on mastering basic sentence structures first, then practice using subordinate clauses (e.g., 'Although I know it can be a distraction, I still find myself...') to demonstrate range.
