Score: 52.0Suggestion: Make the sentence structure correct and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific examples. Avoid repetition and incorrect grammar (e.g., 'I'm chatting is fun' → 'chatting is fun'). Use linking words like 'for example' or 'such as' to list topics.
Example: Yes, I enjoy chatting with friends because it helps me relax. For example, with close friends I often talk about recent news or funny anecdotes about other people. This usually leads to a long, lively conversation.
What do you usually chat about with friends?
Score: 58.0Suggestion: Provide a clear topic sentence and organize supporting details with linking words. Use plural and article forms correctly (e.g., 'random things', 'friends' work'). Be specific by giving one or two concrete topics and a short reason why you discuss them.
Example: We usually chat about a few recurring topics. For instance, we talk about travel plans and recent movies starring popular celebrities, because these topics are easy to relate to and share opinions about.

Score: 64.0Suggestion: Answer directly then add a brief specific reason and an example. Fix grammar (e.g., 'more than one friend', 'a group consisting of three people'). Use linking words like 'because' to explain why.
Example: I prefer chatting in a small group because it is more dynamic. For example, in my three-person WhatsApp group, different people bring up different ideas, which makes the conversation more interesting.
Do you prefer to communicate face-to-face or via social media?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: State your preference clearly, then give two concise reasons with correct vocabulary (e.g., 'facial expressions' and 'gestures', not 'enforce'). Avoid hedging and repetition. Use linking words such as 'because' and 'so'.
Example: I prefer face-to-face communication because we can use facial expressions and gestures to convey meaning. As a result, conversations feel more natural and we can laugh together, which strengthens our bonds.
Do you argue with friends?
Score: 50.0Suggestion: Give a direct answer (yes/no) and then explain briefly with clear grammar. Avoid filler words and fragmented sentences. Provide a reason and a short example of typical disagreements, and finish the thought coherently.
Example: Yes, we sometimes argue, but usually in a friendly way. For example, we disagree about which movie is better, and these debates make the conversation more engaging because we each explain our viewpoints.
× Yes, I'm chatting is fun especially when I do it with some close friends.
✓ Yes, chatting is fun, especially when I do it with close friends.
The original mixes 'I'm chatting' (present continuous) with a general statement. Use the gerund 'chatting' to express the activity in general. Also remove the redundant 'is' after 'I'm' and add a comma before 'especially'. Suggestion: Use 'chatting is fun' or 'I enjoy chatting' for general habits.
× We talked about random things like words like other friends or the new news happens in our society.
✓ We talked about random things, like gossip about other friends or recent news in our society.
The sentence incorrectly uses 'the new news happens' which mixes noun and verb forms. Use 'recent news' as a noun phrase. Also 'words like other friends' is unclear; 'gossip about other friends' conveys the intended meaning. Keep past tense 'talked' consistent with completed action.
× Most of it uh, it's about random thing we can chat about traveling, about celebrity movies, other friends works, uh, and many interesting things.
✓ Most of the time, it's about random things: we chat about travel, celebrity movies, other friends' work, and many other interesting topics.
Original has singular/plural mismatches and awkward structure. 'Most of it' should be 'Most of the time'. 'Random thing' should be plural 'random things'. Use possessive 'other friends' work' for jobs or 'other friends' activities' if intended. Use parallel structure for list items.
× It will be more exciting when I chat with more than one friends.
✓ It is more exciting when I chat with more than one friend.
Using 'will' suggests future but the speaker describes a general preference; use present simple 'is'. Also correct plural: 'more than one friend' (singular after 'one'). Use 'friend' not 'friends' after 'one'. Suggestion: Use present simple for general truths.
× Uh, I have a group who consists of three people, me and two friends, and we have WhatsApp chat so we can, uh, open a conversation.
✓ I am in a group of three people — me and two friends — and we have a WhatsApp chat so we can start a conversation anytime.
Use 'a group of three people' not 'who consists of three people'. 'We have WhatsApp chat' should be 'we have a WhatsApp chat' or 'a WhatsApp group chat'. 'Open a conversation' is awkward; 'start a conversation' is natural.
× Face to face is more interesting because we can't enforce our expression and gesture and it will boost, uh, the, the interesting of the conversation.
✓ Face-to-face is more interesting because we can express our expressions and gestures more clearly, and it boosts the interest of the conversation.
Original uses 'can't enforce' incorrectly; likely meant 'can express'. Use 'face-to-face' hyphenated as adjective. 'Boost the interesting of the conversation' is ungrammatical; use 'boosts the interest of the conversation' or 'makes the conversation more interesting'. Maintain present simple for general truth.
× We can see each other directly, not just in social media, and we can laugh together.
✓ We can see each other in person, not just on social media, and we can laugh together.
Use 'in person' rather than 'directly' for face-to-face contact. Preposition with 'social media' is 'on social media', not 'in'. Suggestion: Use 'in person' and 'on social media' correctly.
× Of course, it usually happens not I I do believe it.
✓ Of course, it usually happens; I do believe that.
Original has word order and repetition errors ('not I I'). Clarify by removing extraneous words and using a clause 'I do believe that' to express opinion.
× It's not. It's does not only happen on me, but other people as well, because it will be more interesting when we don't have the same opinion about a thing and it will enhance our conversation and.
✓ It's not just me; it happens to other people as well, because it is more interesting when we have different opinions and it enhances our conversation.
Use 'not just me' instead of 'not. It's does not only happen on me'. Replace 'happen on me' with 'happens to me'. Use 'different opinions' rather than 'don't have the same opinion about a thing'. Maintain present simple for habitual situations and finish the sentence with 'it enhances our conversation'.
