Try using synonyms for the above words

Pronunciation

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

Task Response

The answer is well-organized and coherent, directly addressing the question. Consider adding more detail or examples to illustrate your leisure activities and how you manage your time effectively. Elaborating on the challenges you face in balancing work and leisure and how you overcome them would further strengthen your response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable, but the fluency is hampered by numerous fillers ('uh'), repetitions, and a slightly hesitant delivery. Improving pacing and reducing filler words would significantly enhance fluency and coherence. Try practicing speaking at a more natural pace without pausing excessively.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is adequate but lacks sophistication. While the speaker conveys the message, using more precise and varied vocabulary would improve the score. For example, instead of repeatedly saying 'chatting,' consider using synonyms like 'conversing,' 'communicating,' or 'interacting.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are several grammatical inaccuracies, particularly in the phrasing of 'specific amount time.' The speaker also struggles with the correct use of articles and prepositions at times. Focusing on improving grammatical accuracy and sentence structure will significantly improve the score. Consider reviewing grammar rules related to articles, prepositions, and subject-verb agreement.
