Studying and working is always different, and the education system should be able to provide enough training for their students to give a proper environment that reflects what it will look like in the workplace. They also have to provide more knowledge on the new kinds of work and workplace technologies. For example, if someone is studying computer science, they should be able to understand the new technologies that are evolving. The education system should provide enough information on new technologies so that students will not lag in knowledge and will not face many challenges transitioning from student to working culture.

Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is quite good. Working on consistency and tackling difficult sounds may enhance clarity.

Task Response

The response addresses the question directly and provides relevant suggestions for improving education systems. To further enhance the answer, consider elaborating on the types of training and knowledge that would be most beneficial. Providing specific examples of workplace challenges and how the education system can address them would also strengthen the response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is generally coherent, but there are some instances of repetition ('provide enough') and a slight lack of natural flow. Using more varied cohesive devices would improve the flow. For example, instead of repeating 'they have to provide,' consider using synonyms or rephrasing the sentence.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate for discussing the topic, but it could be more precise and varied. Consider using more specific terms related to education and technology. For example, instead of 'new kind of work,' you could say 'emerging roles' or 'evolving job functions.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The answer contains some grammatical errors, such as subject-verb agreement issues ('education system should be able to provide') and awkward phrasing ('give the proper environment how it will look like'). While the meaning is clear, correcting these errors would improve the grammatical accuracy. Also, pay attention to article usage (e.g., 'the new technology').
