Last vacation, I didn't go out because my parents work every day and they don't have a lot of free time. However, I enjoyed my vacation at home because you can enjoy your vacation in any place. I had a cozy vacation because I did some activities, such as watching movies, sleeping all day, eating my favorite food, which is the Perani pizza, and also making some snacks.

The response directly addresses the question and provides a clear explanation of why the student stayed home. The student effectively elaborates on the activities they enjoyed during their vacation, demonstrating strong communication skills.

Fluency & Coherence

The response is generally coherent, but there are some hesitations and slight disruptions in fluency. The use of 'and I because' is a noticeable break in the flow. To improve, focus on smoother transitions between ideas and avoid unnecessary repetitions. Practice speaking more continuously without pausing excessively.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate and appropriate for the topic. The use of 'cozy vacation' is a good choice. However, the range could be expanded with more varied and descriptive language. Try to incorporate synonyms and more specific vocabulary related to leisure activities and relaxation.

The grammar is mostly accurate, but there are a few errors, such as the slightly awkward phrasing 'and I because'. The sentence structure is relatively simple. To improve, aim for more complex sentence structures and ensure consistent grammatical accuracy. Pay attention to conjunctions and sentence flow.
