Do you like reading?
Candidato
I enjoy reading, but I don't enjoy it as much as watching visual visual media. I prefer films or series on the same topic because they are more engaging and easier to follow.

Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?
Candidato
I prefer to read on a screen because nowadays we live in the age of technology and most books are easy to download. For example, last week I downloaded an ebook on my phone and read it on the bus, which was very convenient.

When do you need to read carefully, and when not?
Candidato
I need to read carefully when I am in a transport, for example, or a place full of people, because I can't, uh, focus good on my reading. So I do my best in this occasion, but when I am alone, I don't need to read carefully.

Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?
Candidato
I prefer detailed reading to understand every idea and every line. I like to to to be more, uh, philosophic in each idea. For example, I love to read carefully to understand the meaning of each word.
Do you like reading?
Puntuación: 72.0Sugerencia: Votre réponse est claire mais comporte des répétitions et des hésitations. Travaillez la concision et la fluidité : évitez les doubles mots (par ex. "visual visual"), commencez par une phrase thème, puis développez brièvement avec une raison et un exemple. Pratiquez des transitions simples (for example, because) et limitez-vous à 3–4 phrases pour rester naturelle.
Ejemplo: I enjoy reading, but I prefer visual media like films and series because they are more engaging and easier to follow. For example, when I want to learn about history, I find documentaries more vivid and memorable than books.
Do you prefer to read on paper or on a screen?
Puntuación: 86.0Sugerencia: Bonne structure et exemple concret. Pour améliorer : variez le vocabulaire et soyez plus concise. Remplacez phrases générales comme "we live in the age of technology" par raisons spécifiques (portability, search function, adjustable font). Utilisez un lien logique entre raison et exemple.
Ejemplo: I prefer reading on a screen because it is more portable and I can adjust the font size for comfort. For example, last week I downloaded an ebook and read it on the bus, which was much more convenient than carrying a paperback.
When do you need to read carefully, and when not?
Puntuación: 64.0Sugerencia: La réponse est confuse et contient des erreurs grammaticales et des hésitations. Commencez par une phrase claire qui répond aux deux parties de la question, puis expliquez avec raisons précises. Corrigez la grammaire ("focus well" ou "concentrate") et évitez les répétitions. Utilisez un lien logique (however, when).
Ejemplo: I need to read carefully when the material is important or when I'm in a noisy place because I find it hard to concentrate then. However, when I'm alone and relaxed, I tend to skim easier texts without focusing on every detail.
Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?
Puntuación: 68.0Sugerencia: Bonne idée principale mais la réponse contient répétitions, hésitations et langue imprécise. Reformulez plus naturellement et ajoutez une brève raison précise. Évitez les répétitions de mots et les fillers (uh). Limitez-vous à 2–3 phrases avec une transition simple (for example).
Ejemplo: I prefer detailed reading because it helps me fully understand the author's ideas and vocabulary. For example, when I read philosophy or literature, I take my time to analyse each sentence and its meaning.
× I can't, uh, focus good on my reading.
✓ I can't, uh, focus well on my reading.
Use 'well' (an adverb) to modify the verb 'focus'. 'Good' is an adjective and should not be used to modify verbs. Replace 'good' with 'well' to be grammatically correct. To improve, practice distinguishing adjectives (modify nouns) from adverbs (modify verbs), e.g., 'I feel good' vs 'I feel well' when referring to ability to perform an action.
× So I do my best in this occasion, but when I am alone, I don't need to read carefully.
✓ So I do my best on such occasions, but when I am alone, I don't need to read carefully.
The phrase 'in this occasion' is unnatural and ungrammatical in English; the correct expression is 'on this occasion' or more generally 'on such occasions'. This is a sentence structure/collocation issue. To improve, learn common fixed expressions (e.g., 'on this occasion', 'in this case', 'on such occasions') and choose the one that fits the context.
× I prefer to read on a screen because nowadays we live in the age of technology and most books are easy to download.
✓ I prefer to read on a screen because nowadays we live in the age of technology and most books are easy to download.
Although the sentence is acceptable, a more natural preposition would be 'in the age of technology' or 'in the digital age'. The original uses 'in the age of technology' which is correct; no change required. Keep using 'in' with 'age'.
× I prefer films or series on the same topic because they are more engaging and easier to follow.
✓ I prefer films or series on the same topic because they are more engaging and easier to follow.
The pronoun 'they' correctly refers back to 'films or series'. No grammatical change needed. To improve clarity, ensure plural antecedents for 'they' are explicit; here 'films or series' works as plural.
× I like to to to be more, uh, philosophic in each idea.
✓ I like to be more, uh, philosophical about each idea.
The phrase contains a triple 'to' typo and uses 'philosophic' (less common) instead of the adjective 'philosophical'. Also 'in each idea' is awkward; 'about each idea' is more natural. This is a present participle/word form and collocation issue. To improve, remove repeated words, use standard adjective forms, and prefer 'about' to indicate focus on ideas.
× I enjoy reading, but I don't enjoy it as much as watching visual visual media.
✓ I enjoy reading, but I don't enjoy it as much as watching visual media.
The sentence repeats the word 'visual' twice; this is a redundancy rather than a tense error. Present tense 'enjoy' is correct for general preferences. Remove the duplicated word. To improve, read sentences aloud to catch repetitions and maintain tense consistency for habitual actions.
× For example, last week I downloaded an ebook on my phone and read it on the bus, which was very convenient.
✓ For example, last week I downloaded an ebook on my phone and read it on the bus, which was very convenient.
The past tense verbs 'downloaded' and 'read' correctly describe a past event. No grammatical change needed. To improve, ensure past tense is consistently used for completed actions in the past.
× Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?
✓ Do you prefer scanning or detailed reading?
The gerund 'scanning' and noun phrase 'detailed reading' are both acceptable here. No change required. To improve, be consistent in parallel structure: both options could be gerunds (scanning or reading in detail).
