Examiner
Do you prefer to chat with a group of people or with only one friend?
Candidate
Definitely. I prefer to chat with a group of people because firstly, I don't have to talk too much. I enjoy listening to others more than talking myself, and the more people I meet, the more diverse stories I can hear.

Do you like chatting with friends?
Score: 74.0Suggestion: Your answer is relevant and demonstrates enthusiasm, but it is slightly long and a little repetitive ("share my ideas and thoughts" and "experience various cultures" twice concept). Improve by giving a clear topic sentence, one specific supporting detail, and using linking words. Keep it to 2–3 concise sentences.
Example: Yes, I enjoy chatting with my friends because it helps me share ideas and learn about different perspectives. For example, last week a friend from another city told me about local festivals, which inspired me to read more about their culture.
What do you usually chat about with friends?
Score: 64.0Suggestion: The answer addresses the question but has grammatical errors and vague vocabulary ("current interest each other", "public purse"). Be specific about topics and correct collocations; use linking words to connect ideas. Limit to 2–3 clear sentences.
Example: We usually talk about daily routines and recent hobbies, such as work, study, or new TV shows. We often meet at a quiet café so we can relax and concentrate on our conversation.
Do you prefer to chat with a group of people or with only one friend?
Score: 80.0Suggestion: Good clear preference and reasons; however the phrasing is slightly awkward ("meet" people vs "talk to") and the first sentence could be combined to sound more natural. Use one linking word and a brief example to strengthen the answer.
Example: I prefer chatting in a group because I can listen to different opinions and learn varied stories. For example, in a group discussion I recently heard career tips from three friends that were really useful.
Do you prefer to communicate face-to-face or via social media?
Score: 70.0Suggestion: The answer is relevant but repetitive and slightly informal ("some emoji"). Improve accuracy by acknowledging both options briefly, then giving a clear reason for your preference and a specific example. Keep it concise.
Example: I prefer social media because it lets me stay in touch with distant friends and share quick updates, often using emojis to express tone. For instance, I keep contact with classmates abroad through a group chat where we share photos and cultural news.
Do you argue with friends?
Score: 58.0Suggestion: Meaning is understandable but the sentence is grammatically incomplete and unclear at the end ("to complete the"). Improve by using correct grammar, a clear topic sentence, and a brief example of how you resolve disagreements. Keep it to 2–3 sentences.
Example: I usually avoid arguments, but if a disagreement arises I prefer to discuss it calmly and negotiate a solution. For example, when a roommate and I disagreed about chores, we listed tasks and agreed on a fair schedule.
× Yes, of course, I prefer to chat with my friends because I can share my ideas and thoughts with them and experience various cultures and open up a new world that I have not explored before.
✓ Yes, of course. I prefer to chat with my friends because I can share my ideas and thoughts with them, learn about different cultures, and discover new experiences I have not explored before.
The original sentence is long and contains awkward coordination (mixing 'experience various cultures' with 'open up a new world'). This is a sentence structure issue (ID 26). Breaking into clearer parallel elements ('share..., learn..., and discover...') improves clarity and fluency. Use consistent verb forms and parallel structure for coordinated items.
× I usually talk about our daily lives and current interest each other, and we usually meet at a cafe or public purse where we can focus on the conversation and can be relaxed.
✓ I usually talk about our daily lives and current interests in each other, and we usually meet at a cafe or public place where we can focus on the conversation and relax.
This sentence has multiple problems: 'current interest each other' is incorrect and should be 'current interests in each other' (ID 14: quantifier/word choice) and 'public purse' is a wrong noun; it should be 'public place' (word choice). Also 'can be relaxed' is awkward; use the verb 'relax'. The corrections fix noun choice and verb form to make the sentence natural.
× Definitely. I prefer to chat with a group of people because firstly, I don't have to talk too much. I enjoy listening to others more than talking myself, and the more people I meet, the more diverse stories I can hear.
✓ Definitely. I prefer to chat with a group of people because I don't have to talk too much. I enjoy listening to others more than speaking myself, and the more people I meet, the more diverse stories I can hear.
The phrase 'talking myself' is awkward; use 'speaking myself' or 'speaking' to contrast with listening (ID 26 sentence structure). Removing 'firstly' also improves flow because no follow-up 'secondly' is given. The rest is fine.
× Absolutely. I prefer to communicate via social media because it is easier to share my ideas and thoughts with some emoji and I can experience various cultures from different people.
✓ Absolutely. I prefer to communicate via social media because it is easier to share my ideas and thoughts using emojis, and I can learn about different cultures from other people.
'with some emoji' is incorrect: use 'using emojis' or 'with emojis' (ID 12 pronoun/word choice issue). Also 'experience various cultures from different people' is awkward; 'learn about different cultures from other people' is clearer and more natural.
× I usually try to avoid an argument with my friends, but when I need to face the problem, I debate with my friends because I can learn how to deal with the problems by negotiating to complete the.
✓ I usually try to avoid arguments with my friends, but when I need to face a problem, I discuss it with them because I can learn how to resolve issues through negotiation.
Multiple errors: 'an argument' vs 'arguments' and 'the problem' vs 'a problem' and the sentence ends incomplete ('to complete the.'). These are article/number and sentence structure issues (ID 22 and 26). Also 'debate with my friends' sounded adversarial; 'discuss it with them' is more natural. Replacing 'deal with the problems by negotiating to complete the' with 'resolve issues through negotiation' gives a concise, grammatical ending.
