Band 6+: is there anything you don't like about social media and why?

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

The student clearly identifies a dislike of social media, but the explanation is a bit vague. They could elaborate on how social media wastes time, perhaps by mentioning specific examples like scrolling endlessly or comparing oneself to others. The student also mentions deleting apps, which is a good example of taking action to address the issue.

The student's speech is somewhat hesitant, with a few repetitions and filler words. The structure of the answer is generally clear, but could be improved by using more cohesive devices like conjunctions to connect ideas. For example, instead of saying "It's like watching one video after another," they could say "It's like watching one video after another, and before you know it, hours have passed."

The student uses a good range of vocabulary, but some words are not used with complete accuracy. For example, "wases" should be "wastes." The student could also use more specific vocabulary to describe their dislike of social media, such as "addictive" or "mindless scrolling."

The student makes a few grammatical errors, such as "It wases a lot of time" and "I trying to prevent myself." They also use the incorrect tense in "That's why I'm trying to prevent myself from watching videos and I've deleted a lot of social media apps from my phone." The student should focus on using correct verb tenses and subject-verb agreement.
