Do you like taking pictures of different views?
Score: 45.0Suggestion: Clarify and simplify your response: start with a clear topic sentence (Yes/No + short reason), avoid repetition, fix grammar (articles, plurals, verb forms), and keep to 2–3 concise sentences. Use one linking phrase to add detail (e.g., “because” or “especially”). Be specific about an example of a view you like.
Example: Yes, I enjoy taking pictures of different views because they capture the atmosphere of a place. For example, I often photograph coastal sunsets when I travel, as the colours and reflections create a calm, memorable scene.

Example: I prefer rural views because they feel more peaceful and natural. However, I also enjoy city scenes occasionally for their busy atmosphere and impressive architecture.
Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?
Score: 40.0Suggestion: Begin with a clear statement of preference, then give specific supporting details (names, descriptions) concisely. Avoid repetition and fillers, and ensure factual clarity (use correct place names). Keep to 2–3 sentences and use linking words like “for example” or “because” to connect ideas.
Example: I prefer views in my own country because I love our coastal scenery and mountainous areas. For example, the cold climate and dramatic shape of Mount Apo make it a favourite spot for landscape photography.
× I like to take a pictures of a different views I.
✓ I like to take pictures of different views.
The sentence uses incorrect articles and plural forms. 'a pictures' is wrong because 'a' is for singular countable nouns; remove 'a' and use plural 'pictures'. 'a different views' mixes singular article with plural noun; remove 'a' and use 'different views'. Also the trailing 'I' is unnecessary. Correct by using no article with the plural noun: 'take pictures of different views.'
× I take a pictures, I capture every scenery when I either it's in the nature or any cities that made me feel the vibe in myself.
✓ I take pictures; I capture every scene, whether it is in nature or in any city that makes me feel its vibe.
Multiple errors: 'a pictures' incorrect article with plural (Article errors) and 'every scenery' should be 'every scene' or 'the scenery' (word choice). 'when I either it's in the nature or any cities' is ungrammatical; use 'whether it is in nature or in any city'. 'cities' should be singular in parallel with 'it' or use plural with 'they'. Tense/agreement: 'made me feel' should be present 'makes me feel' to match habitual action. Also 'in the nature' should be 'in nature' and 'feel the vibe in myself' is unnatural; use 'feel its vibe'. Suggestions: simplify and use consistent number and tense: 'I take pictures; I capture every scene, whether it is in nature or in any city that makes me feel its vibe.'
× Uh, I often to, to prefer myself having a view in a urban area, especially I felt the scene of it, uh, busy people and even the big buildings.
✓ Uh, I often prefer having a view in an urban area, especially because I like the scene of busy people and the large buildings.
'often to, to prefer' is incorrect: 'prefer' does not need 'to' after 'often'. 'prefer myself' is incorrect reflexive use; say 'I prefer'. 'a urban area' should be 'an urban area' (article before vowel sound). 'I felt the scene' mixes past with present preference; use present 'I like the scene' or 'I enjoy the sight'. 'big buildings' better as 'large buildings'. Suggest using 'I often prefer having a view in an urban area, especially because I like the scene of busy people and the large buildings.'
× But I do more prefer on the rural areas since it was more Co, uh, more peaceful and you.
✓ But I actually prefer rural areas more since they are more peaceful.
'do more prefer on the rural areas' is ungrammatical: correct structure is 'prefer X more' or 'prefer more X', and do not use 'on' before 'rural areas'. 'the rural areas' can be simply 'rural areas' or 'the countryside'; match plurality: 'they are more peaceful' not 'it was'. Remove filler 'Co, uh' and stray 'and you'. Suggest concise sentence: 'But I actually prefer rural areas more since they are more peaceful.'
× Well, in my own opinion, I prefer in my own country because I I love the scenery of the oceans and even the mountains and the well known, umm mountain that we umm, that we have here in the Philippines is Mount Apple since it has a great structure that has a Co uh, perfectly cold.
✓ Well, in my opinion, I prefer my own country because I love the scenery of the ocean and the mountains; the well-known mountain we have here in the Philippines is Mount Apo because it has an impressive shape and is pleasantly cool.
Several issues: 'in my own opinion' redundant; use 'in my opinion'. 'I prefer in my own country' should be 'I prefer my own country' (no 'in'). 'the scenery of the oceans' -> 'the scenery of the ocean' or 'the coast'; 'the well known, umm mountain' should be 'the well-known mountain'. Name likely 'Mount Apo' not 'Mount Apple' (proper noun). Tense and agreement: use present 'love' to match preference. 'that has a Co uh, perfectly cold' is unclear; replace with 'is pleasantly cool' or 'has a cool climate'. Suggestions: remove fillers, use hyphenated 'well-known', correct proper noun, and use clear descriptive phrase.
