Band 6+: What do you do with photos you take?

Your pronunciation is quite good. Working on consistency and tackling difficult sounds may enhance clarity.

The student provides a good response to the question, demonstrating an understanding of the topic. They mention their interest in photography and their efforts to improve their skills. However, the answer could be more specific about the types of photos they take and the reasons behind them. For example, they could mention taking photos of landscapes, portraits, or events. They could also elaborate on their reasons for sharing photos on social media.

The student's speech is somewhat hesitant, with frequent pauses and fillers like "um" and "ah." The answer is generally coherent, but the structure could be improved by using more connecting words and phrases to link ideas together. For example, they could use phrases like "in addition to" or "for instance" to connect their thoughts about social media and photography events.

The student uses a range of vocabulary related to photography, but some of the choices are not entirely precise. For example, "become best photographer" could be replaced with a more specific phrase like "improve my skills" or "become a better photographer." The student also uses some informal language, such as "send some Instagram" and "some Facebook events." While this is not necessarily incorrect, it could be more formal and appropriate for an IELTS exam.

The student demonstrates a good understanding of grammatical structures, but there are some errors in the answer. For example, the phrase "I'm an not a professional photographer" is grammatically incorrect. The student also uses some awkward phrasing, such as "I try to become best photographer in that field." Overall, the grammar is generally accurate, but there are some areas for improvement.
