Do you like taking pictures of different views?
Score: 78.0Suggestion: Make your answer more natural and concise: start with a clear topic sentence, reduce filler phrases, correct grammar (use plural/singular forms) and add one specific detail about why you enjoy those scenes. Keep to 2–4 sentences and use a linking word before the example.
Example: Yes — I love photographing natural views, especially at sunset because the light makes colors more vibrant. For example, when I was in Switzerland a few months ago I spent an evening photographing the lake and nearby mountains, focusing on reflections and warm sky tones.
Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?
Score: 66.0Suggestion: Be more fluent and avoid hesitation sounds. Use correct grammar (plural/singular, verb forms), remove redundancies and organize with linking phrases (On the one hand / On the other hand). Provide one clear preference or say you like both equally with reasons.
Example: I enjoy both types of views. On the one hand, rural areas offer peaceful scenes like forests and mountains that are great for landscape photography; on the other hand, I like urban areas because their modern buildings and city lights create dramatic compositions.
Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?
Score: 62.0Suggestion: Improve clarity and grammar: remove hesitations, use accurate nouns (landscapes), correct sentence structure, and give a concise reason why you prefer your country. Provide a polished example mentioning what you photograph and how it makes you feel.
Example: I prefer views in my own country because its diverse landscapes — for example, the rural areas of Shiki and Pachmas — offer peaceful hills and vivid scenery. I enjoy photographing their rolling fields and old trees because they feel authentic and inspiring.
× Especially I like to take picture of the nature when there is a sunset or something like that.
✓ Especially I like to take pictures of nature when there is a sunset or something like that.
Pluralization of 'picture' is required after 'take' when speaking generally about multiple photos; this matches a verb + -ing context because 'take pictures' is the correct collocation. Also remove the definite article before 'nature' because 'nature' used generally does not need 'the'. Suggestion: use 'take pictures of nature'.
× Moreover, I like to photograph the trees, forest and mountains.
✓ Moreover, I like to photograph trees, forests and mountains.
Article use: when listing general categories, do not use 'the' unless referring to specific items. Also make 'forest' plural to match parallel structure with 'trees' and 'mountains'. Suggestion: use plural nouns without 'the' for general statements.
× For example, a few months ago I was in Switzerland and I took a lot of pictures of the lake and mountains.
✓ For example, a few months ago I was in Switzerland and I took a lot of pictures of the lake and the mountains.
When referring to specific geographical features known in context (the lake and the mountains seen there), use the definite article 'the'. This is a usage issue related to reference in past-tense narrative. Suggestion: add 'the' to indicate specific features.
× Actually in my opinion both of them are definitely amazing.
✓ Actually, in my opinion, both are definitely amazing.
Redundant 'of them' after 'both' is unnecessary and non-native; 'both' already implies 'them'. Also add commas for clarity. Suggestion: say 'both are' when referring to two options.
× On the one hand the rural areas has have an awesome views of nature such as.
✓ On the one hand, rural areas have awesome views of nature.
Subject-verb agreement: 'rural areas' is plural so use 'have' not 'has' and remove the extra 'have'. Also 'views' should be plural to match 'awesome', and remove the trailing 'such as.' or complete it. Suggestion: simplify to 'rural areas have awesome views of nature.'
× Forests and mountains as I said, but on the other hand, umm big cities have umm, futuristic buildings that I like to photos.
✓ Forests and mountains, as I said. But on the other hand, big cities have futuristic buildings that I like to photograph.
Multiple issues: sentence fragments and informal fillers. 'I like to photos' is incorrect; 'to photograph' (verb) or 'photos' (noun) with 'take' should be used. Recast into two clearer sentences and replace 'photos' with 'photograph'. Suggestion: remove fillers and use 'photograph' after 'like to'.
× I definitely would say that my own country has, uh, an amazing view of nature and landscapers.
✓ I would definitely say that my own country has an amazing natural landscape.
Awkward article placement and word choice: 'view of nature and landscapers' is incorrect—'landscapers' are people. Use 'natural landscape' or 'scenery'. Also move 'definitely' for natural word order. Suggestion: use 'has an amazing natural landscape'.
× For example, some rural areas such as Shiki and Pachmas have beautiful. Nature signer and I really adore it and enjoying to take pictures of it.
✓ For example, some rural areas such as Shiki and Pachmas have beautiful scenery, and I really adore it and enjoy taking pictures of it.
Multiple preposition and verb form errors: 'beautiful. Nature signer' is garbled—use 'beautiful scenery'. 'Adore it and enjoying to take' mixes verb forms; use parallel verbs 'adore' and 'enjoy' with 'taking' (gerund). Suggestion: use 'enjoy taking pictures' and 'beautiful scenery'.
