Pronunciation

Your pronunciation is average. It is understandable but not always accurate. Focusing on the rhythm and stress patterns of English could prove beneficial.

Task Response

The answer is quite repetitive and could benefit from more varied vocabulary and sentence structures. Consider adding examples of the types of books you enjoy or how reading impacts your life beyond simply 'touching your mind'. Expanding on your answer with more detail and specific examples would strengthen your response.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable but lacks fluency. There's a lot of repetition and hesitation, indicated by phrases like "always try to" and unnecessary repetition of the hobby. Work on smoother transitions between ideas and avoid unnecessary repetition. Practice speaking more naturally and spontaneously.

Lexical Resource

Vocabulary is adequate but not particularly sophisticated. The phrase "hearty memory" is unusual. Try to use more precise and varied vocabulary to express your thoughts. Consider synonyms for "reading" and "hobby" to enrich your language.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammar contains several errors. There are issues with sentence structure, article usage ("a book", "the reading book"), and preposition usage. Focus on improving grammatical accuracy and sentence construction. Practice using a wider range of grammatical structures.
