Part 1

Do you prefer sad or happy music?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, then give one specific supporting detail with a linking word. Avoid repetition and incorrect word forms (e.g., "listen happily").

Example: I prefer different kinds of music depending on my mood. For example, when I feel sad I often choose slow, melancholic songs because they help me reflect, but when I'm cheerful I pick upbeat tracks that energize me.

Does happy music make you feel more excited?

Score: 58.0

Suggestion: Give a clear reason and one specific effect, using linking words to connect ideas. Avoid vague or repeated phrases and correct grammar (e.g., "it makes me stronger" is fine, but avoid "more stronger").

Example: Yes, it does because upbeat melodies and lively rhythms lift my mood; as a result, I feel more energetic and motivated to face the day.

Have you taken any music classes?

Score: 45.0

Suggestion: Answer directly and organize details logically: state whether you have taken classes, then briefly explain with a clear reason. Avoid filler words and fragmented sentences.

Example: No, I haven't taken formal music classes. I wanted to study vocal lessons when I was younger, but my mother didn't support the idea, so I never enrolled.

Do you listen to music while doing other things?

Score: 60.0

Suggestion: Provide a concise topic sentence and one or two specific examples of activities, using correct verb forms and linking words to make it coherent. Remove redundant phrases.

Grammar

Present tense issue

× It depends on my mood.

It depends on my mood.

Correct sentence; no change needed. The present simple 'depends' correctly expresses a general truth about preferences.

Present tense issue

× Uh, one day I prefer more sad music, but another day I prefer happy music for my mood.

Some days I prefer sadder music, but other days I prefer happier music.

Use plural time expressions 'some days'/'other days' for habitual patterns and comparative forms 'sadder' and 'happier' for adjectives. 'Prefer' in present simple is correct for habits.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× When I feel disappointed or sadness, I always listen sad music, but when I feel joy and happy, I listen happily.

When I feel disappointed or sad, I always listen to sad music, but when I feel joyful and happy, I listen to happy music.

Use the adjective 'sad' instead of the noun 'sadness' to parallel 'disappointed'. Add the preposition 'to' after 'listen'. Use 'joyful' or 'happy' as adjectives and 'happy music' (not 'listen happily') because 'listen' takes an object here.

Third person singular issue

× Yes, it does.

Yes, it does.

Sentence is correct; 'does' correctly matches the third-person singular auxiliary for emphasis.

Incorrect use of the definite article

× Uh, my favorite music is happy music because it's makes my day more fulfilling, more stronger.

My favorite music is happy music because it makes my day more fulfilling and stronger.

Remove extra 's' in 'it's makes' -> 'it makes'. Use 'and' to connect adjectives and avoid 'more stronger' (double comparative); use 'stronger' alone.

Present tense issue

× It makes me stronger.

It makes me stronger.

Correct; present simple correctly expresses a general effect.

Present tense issue

× I feel like it makes me happy.

I feel like it makes me happy.

Correct; present simple is appropriate for expressing feelings.

Sentence structure errors

× It makes sense.

That makes sense.

'That makes sense' is more natural; 'it' is vague here but acceptable—'that' clarifies the idea being referred to.

Past tense issue

× No, I haven't, but uh, at 5, umm great.

No, I haven't, but when I was five I took classes briefly.

Original is fragmented and unclear. To answer 'Have you taken any music classes?' use present perfect 'I haven't' or past tense for specific past events: 'When I was five I took classes.' Provide a complete clause.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Uh, I go to vocal.

I took vocal lessons.

Use 'took' for a past action and 'vocal lessons' or 'singing lessons' instead of 'go to vocal'. 'Go to' needs a noun like 'vocal class' but 'took' is clearer here.

Sentence structure errors

× I would like to go to vocal, but my mom.

I wanted to take singing lessons, but my mom didn't allow it.

Original is incomplete. 'Would like to' describes desire; to relate to past opposition use past: 'I wanted to take singing lessons, but my mom didn't allow it.' Complete the clause to show contrast.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× Don't understand my emotions and I don't go here.

She didn't understand my emotions, so I didn't go.

Subject 'my mom' must be repeated as 'she' for clarity. Use past tense 'didn't understand' to match the context. 'Go here' is vague; 'go' should be followed by the place or activity, so 'go' changed to 'go to lessons' implied.

Present tense issue

× Yeah, I always listen to music while doing other things like my homework, my housework, where when I just walking around with my friends, with my family, I always listening to music and always be happy.

Yeah, I always listen to music while doing other things like my homework and housework, and when I'm walking around with my friends or family. I always listen to music and it always makes me happy.

Use 'listen' (present simple) for habitual action. Add 'to' after 'listen'. Replace 'when I just walking' with 'when I'm walking' (present continuous) and fix 'I always listening' to 'I always listen'. Add a clause 'it makes me happy' to show result. Clean up conjunctions and punctuation.
