Do you have any hobbies?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Make your answer more natural and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, correct grammar (remove articles and verb forms), and add one specific detail about what you cook and why. Use a linking word for the extra detail.

Example: I have several hobbies, but my favourite is cooking. For example, I enjoy preparing different cuisines like Indian and Italian because I like experimenting with spices and sharing new dishes with my family.

Did you have any hobbies when you were a child?

Score: 58.0

Suggestion: Be more precise and correct grammar. Give one or two specific examples of what you drew and explain briefly how it helped you (use linking words). Avoid unrelated claims like improving writing skills unless you explain how.

Example: Yes, I liked drawing and painting as a child. For instance, I often drew animals and flowers, which improved my attention to detail and inspired me to practise more creative projects.

Do you have a hobby that you've had since childhood?

Score: 64.0

Suggestion: Make the sentence grammatically correct and more fluent. State the hobby clearly, then give a specific example of books or authors and explain briefly what you learned, using a linking word to connect ideas.

Example: Yes, reading has stayed with me since childhood. For example, I read both fiction like Harry Potter and non-fiction books about wildlife, which have taught me empathy and given me factual knowledge about animals and society.

Do you have the same hobbies as your family members?

Score: 60.0

Suggestion: Use clearer contrast language and correct plural and article errors. Give a specific comparison and a concrete example of how your hobby differs and benefits you. Keep it concise and use a linking word like "however" or "whereas."

Example: Not really — my family prefers listening to music and watching films, whereas I enjoy cooking. For example, while they relax with movies, I spend time trying new recipes like Thai curries to improve my culinary skills.

Grammar

Article errors

× To be honest, I have a several hobbies in my life but one hobby which I like the most that is cooking.

To be honest, I have several hobbies in my life, but one hobby that I like the most is cooking.

Use of the article 'a' before 'several' is incorrect; 'several' is a determiner that does not need 'a'. The relative clause word order and copula were awkward: 'one hobby that I like the most is cooking' is the correct structure. Suggestion: remove 'a' before 'several', add a comma before 'but', and place the verb 'is' after the relative clause subject for clarity.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I have a lot interest to prepare different cuisine according to my choice so I prepare some meals for my family members.

I have a lot of interest in preparing different cuisines according to my preference, so I prepare meals for my family members.

'a lot interest' is missing the preposition 'of' ('a lot of interest') or better 'have much interest' but native phrasing is 'have a lot of interest in'. 'to prepare' should be the gerund 'preparing' after 'interest in'. 'cuisine' should be plural 'cuisines' when referring to different types. 'according to my choice' is awkward; use 'according to my preference'. Also added a comma before 'so' and removed 'some' which is unnecessary. Suggestion: use 'interest in' + gerund and pluralize 'cuisines'.

Past tense issue

× Yes, when I was a child, I was fond of drawing and painting because I love to draw hearts, sun, parrots and animal which help to improve my writing skills.

Yes, when I was a child, I was fond of drawing and painting because I loved to draw hearts, the sun, parrots and animals which helped to improve my drawing skills.

The sentence mixes past and present tense; keep past tense when referring to childhood (use 'loved' and 'helped'). 'sun' should have the definite article 'the' in this list. 'animal' should be plural 'animals' to match the list. The final phrase should be 'drawing skills' not 'writing skills' since context is drawing. Suggestion: maintain consistent past tense and correct plural and article usage.

Sentence structure errors

× Yes, one hobby that is remained unchanged since childhood.

Yes, there is one hobby that has remained unchanged since childhood.

The original lacks a main verb phrase and uses incorrect passive form 'is remained'; the correct present perfect passive/active 'has remained' shows a state continuing from past to present. Also add 'there is' to form a complete sentence. Suggestion: use 'there is' plus 'has remained' to express continuity.

Incorrect use of quantifiers

× I love to read many fiction and non fiction books which helps to give give me a valuable lesson and I gain more knowledge about animals and society.

I love to read many fiction and non-fiction books which help to give me valuable lessons, and I gain more knowledge about animals and society.

'fiction and non fiction books' should be hyphenated as 'non-fiction' and 'many' is acceptable. Subject-verb agreement: plural 'books' requires plural verb 'help' not 'helps'. Duplicate 'give' removed. 'a valuable lesson' changed to plural 'valuable lessons' to match 'many books'. Added comma before 'and' for clarity. Suggestion: ensure subject-verb agreement and consistent plurality.

Singular and plural issue

× Not exactly, my family member have a different hobbies such as listening to music and watching movies.

Not exactly, my family members have different hobbies such as listening to music and watching movies.

Mismatch between singular 'member' and plural context; use 'family members'. 'have' matches plural subject. 'a different hobbies' mixes singular article 'a' with plural noun 'hobbies'; remove 'a' and use 'different hobbies'. Suggestion: ensure noun number matches articles and verbs.

Verb + -ing form

× However, I prefer only cooking which helps to improve my skills such as I prepare different cuisine.

However, I prefer cooking, which helps me improve my skills since I prepare different cuisines.

When using 'prefer' with a noun or gerund, no 'only' is needed before the verb; 'prefer cooking' is correct. The relative clause needed comma. 'helps to improve' is acceptable but more natural is 'helps me improve'. 'such as I prepare different cuisine' is awkward; use 'since I prepare different cuisines' or 'because I prepare different cuisines'. 'cuisine' pluralized to 'cuisines'. Suggestion: use gerund after 'prefer', include comma before relative clause, and rephrase causal phrase.
