Have you ever bought shoes online?

No, I haven't ordered shoes online. I prefer to try shoes on in a store first because size is vary a lot and it is hard to get a refund or exchange if they don't really fit us. For example, last time I bought you in person I could ride a lot.

Do you like buying shoes? How often?
Score: 55.0Suggestion: Make your answer concise and directly address frequency, then add one specific reason with clear grammar. Avoid redundancy and keep it under five sentences. Use a simple topic sentence (frequency), then one supporting detail (example).
Example: I only buy shoes occasionally, mainly for special events such as weddings. For example, when I attend a wedding I often buy a new pair that matches my outfit so I look appropriate for the occasion.
Have you ever bought shoes online?
Score: 45.0Suggestion: Answer directly and then give one clear reason with correct grammar and a coherent example. Avoid unclear or irrelevant sentences. Use linking words (because/so) and be specific about past experience.
Example: No, I haven't bought shoes online because sizes vary a lot and returns can be difficult. For example, when I last bought shoes in a shop I was able to try several sizes and choose the most comfortable pair.

× I do buy too, but I buy it on special occasions only like when I need to go to a wedding ceremony.
✓ I do buy shoes too, but I buy them only on special occasions, like when I need to go to a wedding.
The original sentence uses incorrect pronouns: 'it' refers to a singular item but 'shoes' is plural, so use 'them'. Also word order and wording improved: place 'only' before 'on special occasions' and remove redundant 'ceremony'. Use 'shoes' to make the referent clear.
× I would buy my new shoe to suit my dress for participating that party so I don't.
✓ I would buy new shoes to suit my dress for attending that party, so I don't buy them often.
Errors include singular 'shoe' instead of plural 'shoes', and incorrect verb phrase 'participating that party'. Use 'attending that party'. Also sentence fragment 'so I don't' is unclear—complete to 'so I don't buy them often.' This fixes pronoun and word choice issues.
× No, I haven't ordered shoes online.
✓ No, I haven't ordered shoes online before.
The sentence is grammatically acceptable, but adding 'before' clarifies experience. Tagged as past tense issue to note present perfect usage correctly indicates life experience; ensure 'haven't' + past participle is used.
× I prefer to try shoes on in a store first because size is vary a lot and it is hard to get a refund or exchange if they don't really fit us.
✓ I prefer to try shoes on in a store first because sizes vary a lot and it is hard to get a refund or exchange if they don't fit well.
'size is vary' is ungrammatical: use plural 'sizes' with verb 'vary'. Also 'fit us' is awkward—use 'fit well' or 'fit me/you' depending on subject. This fixes subject-verb agreement and natural collocation.
× For example, last time I bought you in person I could ride a lot.
✓ For example, last time I bought shoes in person, they fit much better.
Original sentence is unclear and contains pronoun error 'bought you' and irrelevant 'I could ride a lot'. Changed to a clear, relevant example about fit. This corrects sentence structure and meaning.
× I usually spend about $1000 on shoes because they need to be very comfortable and supportive to our tools.
✓ I usually spend about $100 on shoes because they need to be very comfortable and supportive for my feet.
The amount '$1000' may be a quantifier error—likely meant lower amount; changed to $100 as a plausible value (adjust if original intended $1000). 'supportive to our tools' is incorrect: use 'supportive for my feet'. Also use 'my feet' not 'our tools' to match speaker's perspective.
× Good shoes protect my feet and improve my walking and running, so I prefer to pay more money for the better quality.
✓ Good shoes protect my feet and improve my walking and running, so I prefer to pay more for better quality.
Simplified phrasing: 'pay more money for the better quality' is wordy and uses incorrect article 'the'. Use 'pay more for better quality.' Pronouns are fine; this adjusts adjective/article usage.
× I would say I prefer comfortable shoes but I would say fashion is one of my consideration too because we need the mix and match of our outfit in daily life so I if we wearing the shoe which is comfortable and fashionable.
✓ I would say I prefer comfortable shoes, but fashion is one of my considerations too because we need to mix and match our outfits in daily life. I like shoes that are both comfortable and fashionable.
Multiple issues: 'consideration' should be plural 'considerations'; 'we need the mix and match of our outfit' is awkward—use 'we need to mix and match our outfits'. 'so I if we wearing the shoe which is comfortable and fashionable' is ungrammatical; replace with clear sentence 'I like shoes that are both comfortable and fashionable.' This fixes pronouns, pluralization, and overall sentence structure.
