Your pronunciation is average. It is understandable but not always accurate. Focusing on the rhythm and stress patterns of English could prove beneficial.

Task Response

The response is relevant to the question and provides a clear answer. However, elaborating on the reasons for visiting so frequently and the significance of these visits to the speaker would strengthen the response and make it more engaging.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable, but the phrasing is slightly unnatural. The speaker uses "video" instead of "visit" which is a significant lexical error. The structure is also slightly disjointed. Smoother transitions and more natural sentence structures would improve fluency.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not sophisticated. The error with "video" instead of "visit" is a significant issue. More precise and varied vocabulary would improve the score. The phrase "study at total" is also unclear and needs rephrasing.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are some grammatical errors, primarily the incorrect use of "video" and the unclear phrase "study at total." Sentence structure could be improved for greater clarity and accuracy. While the basic grammar is understandable, more complex grammatical structures and error-free sentences are needed for a higher score.
