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 a good start, but it could benefit from more specific details and examples to illustrate the closeness of your family. Consider adding anecdotes or specific instances that showcase your family's support and shared activities. Expanding on your family members' personalities and your relationships with them would also enrich the response. The response could be expanded as it currently feels quite brief.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent and easy to follow. However, there are a few minor issues with fluency. The phrase "body shoulders" is unclear and disrupts the flow. Minor self-correction is also present. Focus on smoother transitions and precise word choices to improve fluency.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. Words like "quality time" are common and safe, but more precise and nuanced vocabulary would elevate the response. Try using more descriptive language to paint a clearer picture of your family dynamics.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammar is mostly accurate, with a few minor errors. The phrase "body shoulders" is grammatically incorrect. The sentence "we always make sure to support each other as both tickle than worry" is also grammatically flawed and unclear. Work on sentence structure and accuracy to improve this aspect.
