Part 1

Are there tall buildings near your home?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Make your answer more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, correct grammar (use singular/plural, articles), reduce filler words (umm, uh), and add one specific reason or example. Use a linking word to connect ideas.

Example: No, there aren’t many tall buildings near my home because I live in a rural area. The houses and shops are low-rise and quite far away, so building taller structures nearby would make it more convenient to access shops and services.

Do you take photos of buildings?

Score: 58.0

Suggestion: Give a clear topic sentence, avoid fillers, and complete your thought. Mention when, why, and give one specific example or detail. Use linking words to make the explanation coherent.

Example: Yes, I enjoy photographing buildings, especially at night because the lighting highlights architectural details. For example, when I photographed a city skyscraper last month, the illuminated windows and reflections made it look dramatic and majestic.

Is there a building that you would like to visit?

Score: 68.0

Suggestion: Be specific about the building and reduce repetition. Begin with a clear statement naming the building, explain why you want to visit with specific details, and use linking words to connect ideas.

Example: Yes, I would love to visit the Louvre Pyramid in Paris. I’ve seen it many times on social media; its glass and triangular shape create striking reflections. Seeing it in person would let me appreciate its modern design and how it contrasts with the classical museum buildings.

Grammar

There be issue

× No, there's not much tall buildings near my house, umm 'cause I really live is very countryside and umm, the building near my house is uh, quite low and the shops is far away from my home.

No, there aren't many tall buildings near my house because I really live in the countryside; the buildings near my house are quite low and the shops are far away from my home.

Errors: 'there's not much tall buildings' mixes singular 'there's' with plural 'buildings' and uses 'much' with a count noun. Use 'there aren't' for plural and 'many' for countable nouns. 'I really live is very countryside' is ungrammatical: use 'I really live in the countryside' (preposition 'in' and noun 'countryside'). 'the building near my house is uh, quite low and the shops is far away' has subject-verb agreement errors: 'building' pluralized in context to 'buildings' or keep singular consistently; better to say 'the buildings near my house are quite low' and 'the shops are far away' (use plural verb 'are'). Suggestions: check subject number (singular/plural), use 'many' with countable nouns, include correct prepositions like 'in the countryside', and match verbs to plural subjects.

Modal verb usage

× However, I would like to build this near my house.

However, I would like to build this near my house.

The sentence is grammatically acceptable but contextually awkward: 'build this' is unclear because 'this' lacks a clear referent. Use a noun (e.g., 'a mall' or 'a shop') after 'build' if you mean a specific structure. Modal verb 'would like' is fine for polite desire.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× It makes me more convene, more convenient and easy to access shops.

It would make my life more convenient and make it easier to access shops.

Errors: 'convene' is the wrong word (convene means to assemble); use the adjective 'convenient'. The original mixes forms awkwardly. Also 'easy to access shops' needs the structure 'easier to access shops' or 'make it easier to access shops.' Suggestions: choose correct word forms (convenient) and parallel structure ('make X more convenient and make it easier to Y').

Present tense issue

× Yes I do and I love to take photos of the building especially at the night it just hits different and like lighting and everything just makes the building looks more magnificent and stunning and tall building just gives me umm the feeling of.

Yes, I do, and I love to take photos of buildings, especially at night; the lighting and atmosphere make the buildings look more magnificent and stunning, and tall buildings give me a certain feeling.

Errors: 'of the building' should be plural 'of buildings' for general habit. 'at the night' incorrect article; use 'at night.' 'it just hits different' is informal/slang; replace with clearer phrasing or omit. 'makes the building looks' has subject-verb agreement and verb form errors: use 'make' with plural subject 'lighting and atmosphere' and base form 'look' not 'looks.' 'tall building just gives me umm the feeling of' is incomplete and needs plural 'tall buildings' and completion: 'give me a certain feeling.' Suggestions: use correct articles ('at night'), match verb forms to subjects, prefer standard expressions in formal responses, and complete sentences.

There be issue

× Yes, there's a iconic building in Paris.

Yes, there's an iconic building in Paris.

Error: article before a vowel sound should be 'an' not 'a' before 'iconic' because 'iconic' begins with a vowel sound. Alternatively, keep 'there's' + 'an iconic building.' Also 'there's' is acceptable for singular. Suggestion: use 'an' with words beginning with vowel sounds.

Present tense issue

× I always saw it on a social media and it has the distinctive glass and the triangle shape and the streaking architecture.

I always see it on social media, and it has distinctive glass, a triangular shape, and striking architecture.

Errors: 'I always saw it' uses past tense 'saw' but speaker means habitual action; use present simple 'see.' 'on a social media' incorrect article; say 'on social media.' 'the distinctive glass and the triangle shape and the streaking architecture' has adjective and noun form errors: 'triangle shape' should be 'triangular shape'; 'streaking architecture' is incorrect—likely 'striking architecture.' Also remove unnecessary 'the' before general nouns. Suggestions: use present tense for habits, correct noun/adjective forms ('triangular', 'striking'), and omit articles when talking about platforms generically ('on social media').

Sentence structure errors

× So I would love to see in person to appreciate the design of the design up close.

So I would love to see it in person to appreciate the design up close.

Errors: redundant 'the design of the design' and missing object after 'see'—use 'see it in person.' Remove repetition and ensure object pronoun refers back to the building. Suggestions: avoid redundancy, include clear object pronouns ('it'), and use concise phrasing.
