Part 1

Examiner

Do you like taking pictures of different views?

Candidate

Yeah, absolutely. Photography is one of my hobbies and it really keeps me grounded. Whenever I travel, I bring my Fujifilm in Saxivo so I can print photos in real time and store them digitally. I usually photo photograph landscape and cityscapes because they capture memories and atmosphere, and they often upload bashots to social media to share it with my family and friends.

Examiner

Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?

Candidate

I prefer views in urban areas because it makes me feel alive seeing tho those tall city scrapers rather than in province areas. In urban areas just give me those sense of feeling like observing people on how they act, on how they move on a daily basis.

Examiner

Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?

Candidate

I haven't been a travel outside of the Philippines so I cannot really tell it, but when I travel domestically here in the Philippines, the landscapes are very picturesque which leaves me in awe every single time that I travel and every single time that I capture not just the photos but also the stories of other people.

Do you like taking pictures of different views?

Score: 64.0

Suggestion: Your answer is generally relevant and shows enthusiasm, but there are several language errors, repetitions, and some unclear word choices (e.g. “photo photograph”, “Saxivo”, “bashots”). To improve: 1) Use a clear topic sentence and avoid repeating words; 2) Correct product names or explain briefly if unsure; 3) Use linking words (for example, because/so) to make the response coherent; 4) Keep to 3–4 concise sentences. Also check basic grammar (verb forms, plurals) and word choice to sound more natural.

Example: Yes, I enjoy taking pictures of different views. Photography is one of my hobbies and helps me relax, so I always bring my Fujifilm instant camera when I travel to print photos and save them digitally. I usually photograph landscapes and cityscapes because they preserve memories and show the atmosphere of a place, and I often upload a few shots to social media to share with family and friends.

Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?

Score: 58.0

Suggestion: Your answer gives a clear preference, but contains many grammar and vocabulary problems that reduce clarity (e.g. “tho those tall city scrapers”, “province areas”, awkward sentence structure). To improve: 1) Start with a direct topic sentence stating your preference; 2) Use correct vocabulary (skyscrapers, rural/provincial areas); 3) Provide one or two specific reasons with linking words (for example, because/and); 4) Avoid fragmented sentences and aim for 2–3 well-formed sentences.

Example: I prefer urban views because tall skyscrapers and busy streets make me feel energetic. Also, cities let me observe people’s daily routines and street life, which I find interesting, so I usually take photos of architecture and candid scenes.

Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?

Score: 68.0

Suggestion: You answer honestly and provide vivid detail about domestic travel, which is good. However, there are grammar issues and wordiness (e.g. “a travel outside”, “every single time that I travel and every single time that I capture”). To improve: 1) Use a clear opening sentence that answers directly (I prefer… / I can’t compare…); 2) Correct grammar (I haven’t traveled abroad); 3) Keep supporting details specific and concise, and use linking words (for example, because/so) to connect ideas; 4) Limit to 2–3 sentences.

Example: I haven’t traveled abroad yet, so I can’t compare, but I really enjoy views in the Philippines. The landscapes here are very picturesque and often leave me in awe, and when I photograph them I try to capture both the scenery and the stories of local people.

Grammar

8: Verb + -ing form

× I usually photo photograph landscape and cityscapes because they capture memories and atmosphere, and they often upload bashots to social media to share it with my family and friends.

I usually photograph landscapes and cityscapes because they capture memories and atmosphere, and I often upload shots to social media to share them with my family and friends.

Errors: redundant word 'photo photograph' and incorrect noun forms. 'Photograph' is the correct verb; 'landscapes' should be plural to match general reference (singular/plural agreement, ID 1 also relevant). 'Bashots' is incorrect—use 'shots' and 'upload' subject should be 'I' not 'they'. 'Share it' should be 'share them' to agree with plural 'shots'. Suggestion: remove the duplicate word, use correct verb 'photograph', pluralize 'landscapes', use 'I often upload shots', and match pronoun number.

1: Singular and plural issue

× Whenever I travel, I bring my Fujifilm in Saxivo so I can print photos in real time and store them digitally.

Whenever I travel, I bring my Fujifilm Instax so I can print photos in real time and store them digitally.

Error: 'Saxivo' appears to be a misspelling of 'Instax' (brand) or a wrong noun; not a grammar category but affects meaning. Pluralization 'photos' is fine. Suggestion: correct the camera name to 'Instax' and keep 'photos' plural. If 'Saxivo' is intended brand use its correct form.

11: Incorrect use of prepositions

× I prefer views in urban areas because it makes me feel alive seeing tho those tall city scrapers rather than in province areas.

I prefer views in urban areas because they make me feel alive seeing those tall city skyscrapers rather than in provincial areas.

Errors: subject agreement and word choice. 'It makes me' should be 'they make me' to agree with plural 'views' (subject-verb agreement, ID 27). 'Tho' is a typo for 'those'. 'City scrapers' is incorrect; use 'city skyscrapers'. 'Province areas' should be 'provincial areas'. Suggestion: match plural subject and verb, fix typos and use correct adjective form 'provincial'.

27: Subject-verb agreement errors

× In urban areas just give me those sense of feeling like observing people on how they act, on how they move on a daily basis.

In urban areas I just get that sense of observing people: how they act and how they move on a daily basis.

Errors: missing subject 'I' and incorrect verb 'give me those sense' should be 'I just get that sense' (subject-verb agreement and article use, ID 22). 'Those sense' mixes plural determiner with singular noun. Also improve style by removing redundant 'like' and combining phrases. Suggestion: include subject, use singular 'that sense', and parallel structure for 'how they act and how they move'.

5: Past tense issue

× I haven't been a travel outside of the Philippines so I cannot really tell it,

I haven't traveled outside of the Philippines, so I can't really say.

Errors: incorrect verb phrase 'been a travel' should be 'traveled' or 'been on a trip'. 'Tell it' is unnatural; use 'say'. Use contraction consistency 'can't'. Suggestion: use present perfect 'haven't traveled' to indicate experience up to now and 'can't really say' for ability to answer.

6: Present tense issue

× but when I travel domestically here in the Philippines, the landscapes are very picturesque which leaves me in awe every single time that I travel and every single time that I capture not just the photos but also the stories of other people.

But when I travel domestically in the Philippines, the landscapes are very picturesque, and they leave me in awe every time I travel and every time I capture not just the photos but also other people's stories.

Errors: tense and subject agreement—'landscapes are... which leaves me' should be 'they leave me' to match plural 'landscapes' (subject-verb agreement, ID 27). 'Every single time that I travel' is wordy; simplify to 'every time I travel'. 'Capture not just the photos but also the stories of other people' can be smoothed to 'capture not just the photos but also other people's stories'. Suggestion: ensure plural subject matches verb, reduce redundancy, and use possessive form.
