Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but could be more precise. The word 'pathologies' is misused; 'potential' would be more appropriate. Expanding your vocabulary and using more specific terms related to sports and talent would enhance your score. Also, 'Lvivian' is not quite right in this context; consider rephrasing to avoid geographical specificity if it's not essential to your point.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly accurate, with a good range of structures. There are a few minor errors, such as the slightly awkward phrasing 'all the of Lvivian'. Pay attention to prepositions and article usage to improve accuracy further. Overall, the grammatical control is good, but refining these small errors will elevate your score.
