Yes I have, I will buy shoes online because it's confident and there is a wider selection. When I buy shoes I always check the size chart and read customer refuse to make sure they will fit.

Examiner

How much money do you usually spend on shoes?

Is it depends on the type of shoes I need? For example I might spend more on specialized running shoes around etcetera until $150.00. But for casual daily shoes I usually buy something more affordable around 30 until $60.00.

Examiner

Which do you prefer, fashionable shoes or comfortable shoes?

I prefer comfortable shoes too, fashionable ones, because my feet are more sensitive as I get older so I need good support. For example, I often work a lot during the day, so comfortable shoes help prevent pain and tiredness.

Part 1

Do you like buying shoes? How often?

Score: 78.0

Suggestion: Make the response slightly more natural and concise by starting with a clear topic sentence, then add one specific reason or example. Avoid repeating ideas ("update my wardrobe" and "replace worn out pairs" are similar). Keep it within 2–3 sentences.

Example: Yes, I enjoy buying shoes. I usually get a new pair every three months, mainly to replace worn-out ones and to keep my outfits looking fresh.

Have you ever bought shoes online?

Score: 60.0

Suggestion: Correct grammar and word choice (use past/present appropriately), and clarify unclear phrases. Use linking words for coherence. Replace incorrect words like "confident" and "customer refuse" with "convenient" and "customer reviews." Keep it to 2–3 sentences and be specific about what you check online.

Example: Yes, I often buy shoes online because it is convenient and offers a wider selection. I always check the size chart and read customer reviews to make sure the fit and quality match my expectations.

How much money do you usually spend on shoes?

Score: 65.0

Suggestion: Begin with a clear topic sentence answering directly, then give specific price ranges using natural phrasing. Fix grammar and remove filler words like "etcetera." Use linking words such as "for example" to connect ideas. Keep it within 2–3 sentences.

Example: It depends on the type of shoes I need. For example, I might spend up to $150 on specialized running shoes, but for everyday casual shoes I usually spend between $30 and $60.

Which do you prefer, fashionable shoes or comfortable shoes?

Score: 72.0

Suggestion: Start with a direct topic sentence stating your preference, then give a clear reason and a short example. Remove contradictory words ("too, fashionable ones") and tighten phrasing. Use linking words like "because" and "for example" correctly.

Example: I prefer comfortable shoes because my feet have become more sensitive as I get older and need extra support. For example, since I spend long hours at work, supportive shoes help prevent pain and tiredness.

Grammar

Third person singular issue

× Yes I have, I will buy shoes online because it's confident and there is a wider selection.

Yes, I have. I buy shoes online because it's convenient and there is a wider selection.

The original uses 'will buy' which incorrectly suggests future intention rather than habitual action; use present simple 'I buy' for habits. Also 'confident' is the wrong word; the correct adjective is 'convenient'. Add a comma after 'Yes' and separate clauses into two sentences for clarity.

Verb in the present participle form

× When I buy shoes I always check the size chart and read customer refuse to make sure they will fit.

When I buy shoes, I always check the size chart and read customer reviews to make sure they will fit.

The phrase 'customer refuse' is incorrect; the noun needed is 'reviews'. 'Read' is fine in present simple for habitual action. Add a comma after the introductory clause 'When I buy shoes' for correct punctuation and clarity.

Sentence structure errors

× Is it depends on the type of shoes I need?

It depends on the type of shoes I need.

The original incorrectly forms a question with 'Is it depends', mixing question structure and statement. Use the declarative 'It depends...' for a direct answer. If asking a question, the correct form would be 'Does it depend on the type of shoes I need?' but here a statement fits the context.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× For example I might spend more on specialized running shoes around etcetera until $150.00.

For example, I might spend up to about $150 on specialized running shoes.

The original uses awkward prepositions 'around etcetera until' and redundant wording. Use 'up to about $150' to convey the maximum typical price. Add a comma after 'For example'.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× But for casual daily shoes I usually buy something more affordable around 30 until $60.00.

But for casual daily shoes I usually buy something more affordable, around $30 to $60.

Use the standard range expression 'around $30 to $60' instead of 'around 30 until $60.00'. Include a comma before the parenthetical price range for readability.

Incorrect use of conjunctions

× I prefer comfortable shoes too, fashionable ones, because my feet are more sensitive as I get older so I need good support.

I prefer comfortable shoes to fashionable ones because my feet are more sensitive as I get older, so I need good support.

The original uses 'too' incorrectly; the correct comparative conjunction is 'to' in 'prefer A to B'. Also add a comma before 'so' that links the reason and result clauses, and remove the comma between 'comfortable shoes' and 'fashionable ones'.
