Pronunciation

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

Task Response

The response touches on the topic but lacks depth and specific examples related to scientific advancements. To improve, focus on providing more concrete details and directly addressing how social media shapes opinions on science.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is somewhat coherent, but there are some abrupt shifts in thought. The ideas are not always clearly linked. To improve, focus on using transition words and phrases to connect your ideas more smoothly. For example, use phrases like 'Furthermore,' 'In addition to,' or 'On the other hand' to guide the listener through your argument.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but lacks precision. Words like 'immense' are used, but the overall range could be broader. To enhance your lexical resource, try to use more specific and varied vocabulary related to the topic of social media and public opinion. For example, instead of 'influence someone's mind,' you could say 'shape public perception' or 'sway opinions.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are noticeable grammatical errors, such as incorrect verb tenses ('social media had played') and awkward phrasing ('extra-curricular knowledge about the another's people'). To improve, focus on using correct verb tenses and ensuring subject-verb agreement. Practice using a variety of sentence structures to demonstrate a wider grammatical range.
