Band 6+: How do you keep in touch with your friends?

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

The response is adequate but lacks detail and depth. Consider elaborating on specific examples of how you use social media to connect with friends, or mention other ways you stay in touch, such as phone calls, in-person meetings, or other communication methods.

The answer is understandable, but lacks a bit of fluency. Adding a brief explanation of how often you connect or different methods for different friends would improve coherence and flow. For example, you could add something like, "I try to video call my closest friends at least once a week, while I mostly use social media to keep up with others."

Vocabulary is adequate but could be more precise and varied. Instead of 'lots of friends,' consider using a more descriptive phrase like 'a wide circle of friends' or 'many close friends.' The phrase 'and such as' is slightly informal; 'including' or 'like' would be better alternatives.

Grammar is mostly correct, but the sentence structure is a bit simple. Combining the two sentences into one more complex sentence would improve grammatical range. For example, "I have lots of friends, and when I want to connect with them, I use social media such as Snapchat and Facebook." The comma splice could also be corrected.
