Pronunciation

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

Task Response

The response addresses the question by suggesting urban planning that incorporates green spaces and separates residential areas from industrial zones. To improve, provide a wider range of strategies and elaborate on the benefits of each, offering more detailed explanations.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is somewhat coherent, but there are noticeable hesitations ('to be, to be') that disrupt the flow. The organization of ideas is present but could be clearer. To improve, practice speaking more smoothly and avoid unnecessary pauses. Use linking words to connect ideas more effectively.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but lacks precision and variety. Words like 'sensation' and 'environment' are used, but the range could be broader. To enhance lexical resource, try to incorporate more specific and nuanced vocabulary related to urban planning and quality of life. For example, use 'well-being' instead of 'sensation' and 'eco-friendly' instead of 'cleaner environment'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammatical accuracy is inconsistent. There are errors such as 'from where that' and awkward phrasing. The range of structures is limited. To improve, focus on using a wider variety of sentence structures and ensuring grammatical accuracy. Pay attention to articles, prepositions, and verb tenses.
