Do you like taking pictures of different views?
Score: 48.0Suggestion: Your answer shows enthusiasm but has problems with grammar, word choice and clarity. Keep it concise (1–3 sentences), start with a clear topic sentence, and give one specific supporting detail. Replace repeated or incorrect words like “selfie” when you mean “photos” and fix articles and plural forms (e.g., “a selfie different atmosphere” → “photos of different atmospheres”). Use a linking phrase if adding a reason.
Example: Yes, I love taking photos of different views. For example, I often photograph mountains and beaches because the changing light and weather create very different moods.
Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?
Score: 35.0Suggestion: The answer is unclear and contains many grammatical errors and irrelevant phrases. Begin with a direct topic sentence stating your preference. Give one clear reason with specific detail, and avoid filler words like “umm.” Use correct verb forms and vocabulary (e.g., “prefer urban areas,” “I often see skyscrapers and neon signs”). Keep it to at most 3 sentences.
Example: I prefer urban views because I enjoy the city skyline. For example, when I visit downtown I love looking at tall skyscrapers and colorful neon signs, which look impressive at night.
Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?
Score: 30.0Suggestion: Your response is unfinished and contains grammar and vocabulary mistakes. Give a complete answer with a clear topic sentence and one or two specific supporting details or an example. Use correct adjectives and nouns (e.g., “varied scenery” instead of “various view and site”) and complete the example or explanation. Avoid hesitations.
Example: I prefer views in other countries because they offer more varied scenery and cultural features. For example, when I traveled to Japan I enjoyed seeing traditional temples next to modern buildings, which I cannot see at home.
× I usually take selfie of landscape such as mountains, rivers and beach because I enjoy taking a selfie different atmosphere and light condition.
✓ I usually take selfies of landscapes such as mountains, rivers, and beaches because I enjoy capturing different atmospheres and lighting conditions.
Errors: 'take selfie' and 'take selfie of landscape' need plural nouns and more natural verbs; 'taking a selfie different atmosphere' is ungrammatical. Use plural 'selfies' and 'landscapes' for general habits (Grammar Problem Type 1: singular and plural issue). Use 'capturing' (verb + -ing) correctly to mean photographing and follow with plural 'atmospheres' and 'lighting conditions' for countable concepts. Suggestion: pluralize nouns when speaking generally and use 'capture' or 'take photos' with appropriate -ing forms for continuous/action descriptions.
× I would say I'm more likely to prepare you in urban area.
✓ I would say I'm more likely to prefer urban areas.
Errors: 'prepare you in urban area' is incorrect and does not convey intended meaning. Likely intended 'prefer urban areas.' Remove 'you' and use plural 'areas' for general preference (Grammar Problem Type 11: incorrect use of prepositions and Type 1: singular/plural). Suggestion: use 'prefer' plus the noun phrase 'urban areas' to state preference.
× That is because I don't live in Seoul so I often watching umm skyscraper and snail sign.
✓ That is because I don't live in Seoul, so I often watch skyscrapers and small signs.
Errors: 'often watching' is incorrect continuous form without auxiliary; should use simple present 'often watch' for habitual actions (Grammar Problem Type 6: present tense issue and Type 8: verb + -ing form). 'skyscraper' and 'snail sign' need plural and correct word 'small sign'. Suggestion: use simple present for habitual actions and pluralize countable nouns; ensure correct vocabulary ('small' not 'snail').
× It was really beautiful.
✓ They are really beautiful.
Context: referring to views or buildings seen habitually, so plural present tense is more appropriate. Original uses past singular 'It was' which mismatches the ongoing habit. Use 'They are really beautiful' to agree with plural noun and present-tense statement (Grammar Problem Type 1 and 6). Suggestion: match verb number to subject and use present tense for general statements.
× I would say I'm more likely to prefer view in other countries.
✓ I would say I prefer views in other countries.
Errors: 'more likely to prefer' is redundant and awkward; 'prefer' alone expresses the idea. 'view' should be plural 'views' and include 'in' correct but better 'views in other countries.' Remove unnecessary modal construction (Grammar Problem Type 10: verb in the present participle form and Type 1: plural). Suggestion: simplify to 'I prefer views in other countries.'
× That is because it gives me a various view and site.
✓ That is because it gives me various views and sights.
Errors: 'a various view' mixes singular article with adjective 'various' which requires a plural noun; 'site' is incorrect word choice, 'sight' or 'scenery' fits (Grammar Problem Type 13 and Type 1). Suggestion: remove 'a' and pluralize nouns: 'various views and sights' or 'various scenery.'
× For example, I visit to uh.
✓ For example, I visit new places when I travel.
Errors: 'visit to' is incorrect (use 'visit' without 'to'); sentence fragment 'uh' incomplete. Provide a complete clause describing an example. This is a sentence structure error and preposition misuse (Grammar Problem Type 26 and 11). Suggestion: complete the thought and use 'visit' plus object: 'I visit new places' or 'I visit historic sites.'
