The response addresses the question directly and provides relevant examples.

Additionally, exploring both positive and negative aspects could add depth.

The response is generally coherent and easy to follow. The ideas are logically connected. To improve, try to use more varied cohesive devices to link your ideas and avoid starting sentences with 'so' too often.

The vocabulary is adequate and appropriate for the topic. The candidate uses words like 'advances,' 'limitations,' and 'online platforms' effectively. To enhance the lexical resource, try to incorporate more specific and less common vocabulary related to communication technology.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate, with a few minor errors. For example, 'changed completely due to the advances' could be phrased more precisely. The range of structures is good, but accuracy could be improved by paying closer attention to verb tenses and sentence structure. For example, 'it isn't required to go a long way' could be improved to 'it isn't necessary to go a long way.'
