Your pronunciation is very good. Aim to refine subtleties and intonation to further improve.

Task Response

9
This is an excellent response. The answer directly addresses the question and provides specific details about the frequency and sources of news consumption. Consider adding a brief explanation of why you find it important to stay informed.

Fluency & Coherence

8
The answer is coherent and well-structured. The fluency is good, with only minor hesitations. Perhaps slightly more sophisticated linking words could elevate the response.

Lexical Resource

7
The vocabulary is appropriate and accurate. More precise vocabulary choices could be used to demonstrate a wider range. For example, instead of 'reliable websites,' the speaker could use 'reputable news sources' or 'credible media outlets'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

8
Grammar is accurate and the range of structures is good. The phrasing '3 or 4 times' could be improved to 'three or four times' for a more formal tone. The use of more complex sentence structures would further enhance the score.
