I pursued this degree because my parents always saw me working with computer accessories. For example, when I was a child, I always tried to set up and fix computers by adding different types of components. I was also able to easily fix my friends' and my neighbor's computers. From my childhood, I was interested in computers, so that's why I chose to study in this field.

Task Response

The answer is coherent and addresses the question directly. Consider expanding on the specific aspects of computer work that appeal to you, and perhaps mention future career goals to further demonstrate your passion and commitment.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent and easy to follow. However, there are a few instances of hesitant speech and slight repetition. Improving the flow by using more sophisticated linking words and phrases would enhance fluency. For example, instead of 'So from my childhood...', consider 'Therefore, from a young age...'

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate but lacks precision in places. Words like 'computer accessories stuff' could be replaced with more specific terms. Using more precise and sophisticated vocabulary will improve the score. Consider using synonyms for frequently used words like 'fix' and 'computer'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The grammar is mostly correct, but there are some minor errors, such as the use of 'set and fix computer' instead of 'set up and fix computers'. The sentence structure is simple. Using more complex grammatical structures and ensuring consistent subject-verb agreement will improve accuracy.
