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 is relevant to the question and provides some insight into a specific custom. However, it focuses narrowly on one aspect of school life and lacks the breadth and depth expected for a higher score. To improve, consider discussing a wider range of customs and providing more detailed explanations and examples.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent, but the fluency could be improved. There is some repetition and slightly unnatural phrasing. Focus on smoother transitions between ideas and a more natural flow of speech. Consider rephrasing 'learning a uniform' to 'wearing a uniform'.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. While the answer uses appropriate words, incorporating more precise and varied vocabulary would enhance the response. Consider using synonyms for 'essential' and 'responsible'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are some grammatical inaccuracies, such as 'in our mind' and 'makes me feel that I am coming to school'. While the overall message is understandable, improving grammatical accuracy and using a wider range of grammatical structures would significantly improve the score. Focus on subject-verb agreement and sentence structure.
