Recently I've been using the podcast app on my iPad almost every single day because it helps me improve my general knowledge in English speaking skills and I love it.

Examiner

What kinds of apps are you usually interested in?

Candidate

I am usually interested in apps like Pinterest and podcast because they allow me to explore creative ideas and listen to interesting content which feels similar to paging through magazines and feeling like I have them in real life.

Examiner

How do you find out different apps?

Candidate

Different apps? Well in the future I would prefer. I usually discover new apps through Instagram. However, some of my favorite apps are those that I've used since I was a child, so I don't exactly remember when I first found them.

Candidate

In the future, I would prefer to use apps without AI because I believe relying on AI might reduce our ability to relax naturally. Also, I want to use apps that many people find interesting and put a lot of effort in it, not the ones that are made with robots.

Suggestion: Your answer is a bit confusing and lacks coherence. Avoid unrelated phrases like "in the future I would prefer" here. Use linking words to organize your ideas logically and provide clearer explanations.

Example: I usually discover new apps through Instagram because many developers promote their apps there. However, some of my favorite apps are ones I've used since childhood, so I can't remember when I first found them.

What kinds of apps would you like to use in the future?

Suggestion: Your answer shows good opinion but could be clearer and more concise. Use linking words to connect your ideas and correct small grammar mistakes, such as 'put a lot of effort into them' instead of 'in it'.

Example: In the future, I would prefer to use apps without AI because I think relying on AI might reduce our natural ability to relax. Moreover, I want to use apps that many people find interesting and that are carefully developed by humans, not by robots.

Grammar

Incorrect use of quantifiers

× Recently I've been using the podcast app on my iPad almost every single day because it helps me improve my general knowledge in English speaking skills and I love it.

Recently I've been using the podcast app on my iPad almost every single day because it helps me improve my general knowledge and English speaking skills, and I love it.

The phrase 'general knowledge in English speaking skills' is incorrect because 'general knowledge' and 'English speaking skills' are two separate concepts and should be connected properly. Adding 'and' clarifies that both are being improved. Also, 'general knowledge in English speaking skills' is awkward and unclear.

Singular and plural issue

× I am usually interested in apps like Pinterest and podcast because they allow me to explore creative ideas and listen to interesting content which feels similar to paging through magazines and feeling like I have them in real life.

I am usually interested in apps like Pinterest and podcasts because they allow me to explore creative ideas and listen to interesting content which feels similar to paging through magazines and feeling like I have them in real life.

The word 'podcast' should be plural 'podcasts' because it refers to a category of apps, not a single app. When listing types or kinds, plural form is appropriate.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Different apps? Well in the future I would prefer. I usually discover new apps through Instagram. However, some of my favorite apps are those that I've used since I was a child, so I don't exactly remember when I first found them.

Different apps? Well, I usually discover new apps through Instagram. However, some of my favorite apps are those that I've used since I was a child, so I don't exactly remember when I first found them.

The phrase 'Well in the future I would prefer.' is incomplete and incorrectly placed. It should be removed or rephrased. Also, 'discover new apps through Instagram' is correct preposition usage. The original sentence is confusing and the phrase 'in the future I would prefer' is misplaced here.

Modal verb usage

× In the future, I would prefer to use apps without AI because I believe relying on AI might reduce our ability to relax naturally.

In the future, I would prefer to use apps without AI because I believe that relying on AI might reduce our ability to relax naturally.

Adding 'that' after 'believe' improves sentence clarity and is grammatically correct in formal English. The modal verb usage 'would prefer' is correct here.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× Also, I want to use apps that many people find interesting and put a lot of effort in it, not the ones that are made with robots.

Also, I want to use apps that many people find interesting and put a lot of effort into them, not the ones that are made by robots.

The phrase 'put a lot of effort in it' is incorrect; the correct preposition is 'into' and the pronoun should be plural 'them' to agree with 'apps'. Also, 'made with robots' is better expressed as 'made by robots' to indicate the agent performing the action.
