What is your favourite food?
Score: 62.0Suggestion: Сфокусируйтесь на упорядоченной, связной и более естественной речи: начните с краткого прямого ответа (топик-сентенс), затем добавьте 1–2 поддерживающих предложения с конкретными деталями. Избегайте повторов и заполнителей (uh, like) и используйте связки (for example, because, so) для логики. Также используйте более точную лексику (junk food, soft drinks, balanced diet). Тренируйтесь говорить не более 4–5 предложений.
Example: My favourite food used to be junk food like burgers and fizzy drinks, but now I prefer healthy meals. For example, I often eat salads with grilled chicken because they are light and nutritious.

× My favorite food, to be honest, I love to eat unhealthy food like fizzy drinks, like fast food, but I know that it's not normal.
✓ My favorite foods, to be honest, are unhealthy items like fizzy drinks and fast food, but I know that they are not healthy.
The student used 'food' singular then listed multiple items; plural is clearer. 'Love to eat unhealthy food like fizzy drinks, like fast food' has awkward listing and repetition of 'like'; 'it's not normal' is vague and mismatched with meaning — 'not healthy' is correct. Suggest using plural 'foods' or 'items' and parallel structure: 'are unhealthy items like X and Y' to improve clarity and correctness.
× And now I want to improve my, my uh, favorite food.
✓ And now I want to improve my favorite choices of food.
'My favorite food' as a singular fixed preference sounds odd when speaking of improving habits; 'favorite choices of food' fits intention. No third-person verb issue in original, but verb 'want' is correct; improvement is stylistic: use a plural noun to match 'choices'. Suggest clearer phrasing to match meaning.
× I eat salads, I eat healthy food.
✓ I eat salads and healthy foods.
Repetition 'I eat salads, I eat healthy food' is grammatically acceptable but can be improved by parallel structure and plural 'foods' to match multiple items. Use conjunction 'and' for smoother flow.
× When I was young, I really used to prefer eat some also unhealthy food like chips, like crispy, like sweets and icing is love.
✓ When I was young, I used to prefer eating unhealthy foods like chips, crisps, sweets, and icing.
After 'used to' the verb should be in -ing form ('prefer eating') or a base form with 'to' ('prefer to eat'). 'Eat some also unhealthy food' is ungrammatical; 'some' and 'also' misplaced. 'Crispy' is an adjective; noun 'crisps' (British) or 'chips' may be intended. 'Icing is love' is incorrect — should be 'and icing' or 'and I loved icing'. Suggest: 'I used to prefer eating unhealthy foods like chips, crisps, sweets, and icing.'
× I sing it's every every child person like to eat like these foods.
✓ I think every child likes to eat these foods.
'I sing it's every every child person like to eat like these foods' contains multiple errors: 'sing' should be 'think'; 'it's every every child person' is ungrammatical and redundant; subject-verb agreement needed: 'every child likes'. Remove extra 'like's. Suggest simple structure: 'I think every child likes to eat these foods.'
× Of course, in summer I eat a watermelon, a melon, some vegetables that's in winter haven't got in winter.
✓ Of course, in summer I eat watermelon, melon, and some vegetables that we don't get in winter.
Original mixes singular articles and incorrect clause 'that's in winter haven't got in winter'. Use plural/general nouns without 'a' when speaking generally ('eat watermelon'); correct relative clause: 'that we don't get in winter'. Use 'we' or 'they' to clarify subject. Suggest simplifying: 'I eat watermelon, melon, and vegetables that aren't available in winter.'
× I prefer to eat some salads because it's a new year, it's have a holiday and I of course I really love it.
✓ I prefer to eat salads because it's the New Year, we have a holiday, and of course I really enjoy it.
'Some salads' can be 'salads'; 'it's have a holiday' is ungrammatical—use 'we have a holiday' or 'there is a holiday'. 'I of course I' duplicates subject. 'Love it' is okay but 'enjoy it' fits better. Suggest: 'I prefer to eat salads because it's the New Year and we have a holiday, so of course I really enjoy them.'
× Of course when I was child I preferred to eat unhealthy food, but now I change it and now for me as a favorite food is a rice with a chicken with a salad.
✓ Of course, when I was a child I preferred to eat unhealthy food, but now I have changed, and my favorite meal is rice with chicken and a salad.
Missing article 'a child' should be 'a child'. 'I change it' is present tense; correct is 'I have changed' or 'I changed'. 'for me as a favorite food is a rice with a chicken with a salad' is ungrammatical — use 'my favorite meal is rice with chicken and a salad'. Use articles correctly and consistent tense: present perfect 'have changed' to show change since childhood.
× It's my favorite combination in food.
✓ It's my favorite food combination.
'Combination in food' is awkward; correct collocation is 'food combination' or 'combination of foods'. Suggest compact phrasing: 'It's my favorite food combination.'
× Thank you for question.
✓ Thank you for the question.
Missing definite article before 'question'. Standard polite phrase is 'Thank you for the question.' Use 'the' to specify the question just asked.
