Task Response

The student provides a clear answer to the question, mentioning both immediate and extended family. However, the answer could be more concise and organized. The student could have directly stated the number of family members in their immediate family without the unnecessary detail about living together.

Fluency & Coherence

The student's speech is somewhat hesitant, with frequent fillers like 'um' and 'ah'. The answer lacks a smooth flow and could be more concise. The student could have used more cohesive devices to connect their ideas, such as 'and' or 'also', instead of simply listing family members.

Lexical Resource

The student uses a good range of vocabulary, including 'immediate family', 'extended family', 'aunts', 'uncles', and 'cousins'. However, the student uses the phrase 'dress my family' which is not idiomatic and suggests a lack of precision in vocabulary choice.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The student demonstrates a good grasp of grammar, but there are some minor errors. For example, the student uses 'unles aun' instead of 'uncles and aunts'. The student also uses the phrase 'they live in another home' which is grammatically correct but could be more sophisticated.
