Score: 64.0

Suggestion: Make the answer more concise, correct grammar and pronunciation errors, and use coherent linking. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific details. Avoid redundancy (e.g., 'it has become my home now' and 'I have been residing here for over a decade' convey the same idea).

Grammar

There be issue

× To be specific it is in the eastern side of Punjab just next to the Chandiger, the city beautiful.

✓ To be specific, it is in the eastern part of Punjab, just next to Chandigarh, the city beautiful.

Incorrect use of 'the eastern side' and place name spelling. Use 'there is/it is in the eastern part of' for location and correct proper noun spelling; also add commas for clarity.

Incorrect use of the definite article

× To be specific it is in the eastern side of Punjab just next to the Chandiger, the city beautiful.

✓ To be specific, it is in the eastern part of Punjab, just next to Chandigarh, the city beautiful.

Use 'eastern part of' instead of 'eastern side of' for natural English; 'the' before 'Chandiger' is unnecessary and the city name is misspelled. Add commas to set off the phrase.

Present tense issue

× It has been almost over a decade since I am residing here.

✓ It has been almost over a decade since I have been residing here.

The original mixes present perfect continuous with a present simple clause ('since I am residing'). After 'since' with a duration, use present perfect continuous 'have been residing' to show an action that started in the past and continues now.

Singular and plural issue

× My hometown has each and every kind of facilities like medical recreational park as well as incredible schools.

✓ My hometown has all kinds of facilities like medical centers, recreational parks, and excellent schools.

'Each and every kind of facilities' is ungrammatical and inconsistent number. Use 'all kinds of facilities' or 'a variety of facilities' and make listed nouns plural and parallel ('medical centers, recreational parks').

Past tense issue

× Moreover, I met my life partner here and I established my clinic in this city only.

✓ Moreover, I met my life partner here and I established my clinic in this city.

'Established' is correct past tense but 'in this city only' is unnatural; remove 'only' or place it differently. Keep past tense for completed events.

Sentence structure errors

× It provided me amazing.

✓ It has provided me with amazing opportunities.

Original lacks an object and correct structure. 'Provided me amazing' is incorrect — use 'provided me with' and specify a noun (e.g., 'opportunities') to complete the sentence.

Present tense issue

× It has been almost over a decade since I'm living here and I moved here from Amatser when I got married and I found this place is very warm and people are here so welcoming.

✓ It has been almost over a decade since I have been living here. I moved here from Amritsar when I got married, and I found this place very warm; the people are very welcoming.

Multiple tense and sentence-structure problems. Use present perfect continuous 'have been living' for duration. 'Amatser' is misspelled—correct to 'Amritsar'. Split into shorter sentences and use parallel, correct adjective/adverb forms ('people are very welcoming').

Incorrect use of the definite article

× I moved here from Amatser when I got married and I found this place is very warm and people are here so welcoming.

✓ I moved here from Amritsar when I got married, and I found this place very warm; the people are very welcoming.

Proper noun spelling 'Amatser' should be 'Amritsar'. Also unnecessary 'here' after 'people are' and missing article 'the' before 'people' for specificity in this context.

Sentence structure errors

× Whatever I needed for my clinic, I always get

✓ Whatever I needed for my clinic, I always got.

Tense inconsistency and sentence incomplete. If referring to past support, use past tense 'got'. To express continuing support, use present perfect 'have always gotten' or 'have always received'.

Modal verb usage

× Definitely yes because young people are looking for job opportunities or higher educations and my city has both offered them as it contains incredible universities and lots of colleges providing courses almost in each and every kind of streams.

✓ Definitely yes, because young people look for job opportunities or higher education, and my city offers both: it has excellent universities and many colleges providing courses in almost every stream.

Multiple issues: 'are looking for' can be simplified to present simple 'look for' for general truths. 'Higher educations' is incorrect—use uncountable 'higher education'. 'Has both offered them' is awkward; use 'offers both'. 'Each and every kind of streams' is ungrammatical—use 'almost every stream' or 'a wide range of streams'.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Besides this it has become hub of lots of government sectors so it has

✓ Besides this, it has become a hub for many government departments, so it has...

Use 'a hub for' rather than 'hub of', and 'many government departments' is the natural collocation rather than 'government sectors'. The sentence is incomplete; finish the idea (e.g., 'so it has provided many job opportunities').
