Are there tall buildings near your home?
Candidato
Yeah, near my apartment there are very tall buildings, although the apartment which I'm living in it, it's 25 floor. So the near apartments are also maybe around 20 to 15 floors. So they are considered a stone.

Do you want to live in a tall building?
Candidato
No, I don't like to live in a tall building. Oppositely I want to live in a floor or in a flat, or in a villa, which it's having only one floor, also not two floors, because I'm liking that. Or I'm preferring to live in flat instead of living in the sky.
Are there tall buildings near your home?
Puntuación: 52.0Sugerencia: Make the answer more natural, concise and grammatically correct. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two supporting details with linking words. Avoid redundant phrases and incorrect expressions like “considered a stone.” Use correct number and article forms (e.g., “25-storey,” “15- to 20-storey”).
Ejemplo: Yes. I live in a 25-storey apartment block, and there are several other tall buildings nearby, mostly about 15 to 20 storeys. For example, the block opposite my building is 18 storeys, so the area feels quite urban.
Do you take photos of buildings?
Puntuación: 60.0Sugerencia: Use a direct topic sentence and more precise vocabulary. Correct tense and adverb usage (e.g., “Sometimes when I go to Dubai”). Link reasons to actions using linking words like “because” or “so.” Keep it within 3–4 sentences.
Ejemplo: Sometimes I do. When I visit downtown Dubai, I often take photos of the striking skyscrapers because their architecture looks impressive, and I usually post the best shots to my Instagram stories.
Is there a building that you would like to visit?
Puntuación: 48.0Sugerencia: Give a clear, grammatical response and avoid repetition. Name the building correctly (e.g., One World Trade Center or the Empire State Building) and explain briefly why you want to visit, using linking words like “because” or “and.”
Ejemplo: Yes. I would like to visit One World Trade Center in New York because I have never been there and I’m curious about its observation deck and city views. I’ve already been to the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, so I’d like to compare the two experiences.
Do you want to live in a tall building?
Puntuación: 45.0Sugerencia: Provide a concise and coherent answer with correct vocabulary and sentence structure. Start with a clear statement, then give one or two specific reasons (e.g., privacy, ease of access). Avoid awkward phrasing like “living in the sky.” Use linking words such as “because” or “so.”
Ejemplo: No, I wouldn’t. I prefer living in a single-storey house or a ground-floor flat because it’s easier to access and feels more private, whereas high-rise living can feel impersonal.
× Yeah, near my apartment there are very tall buildings, although the apartment which I'm living in it, it's 25 floor.
✓ Yeah, near my apartment there are very tall buildings, although the apartment I'm living in is on the 25th floor.
This sentence has a subject-verb agreement and sentence structure problem. 'the apartment which I'm living in it, it's 25 floor' repeats pronouns and misuses verb forms. Use 'the apartment I'm living in is on the 25th floor' to combine relative clause correctly, use the singular verb 'is' to agree with 'apartment', include the preposition 'on' for floors, and use ordinal '25th'. Suggestions: remove the extra pronoun 'it', use a single clause 'the apartment I'm living in is on the 25th floor', and use ordinal number formatting.
× So the near apartments are also maybe around 20 to 15 floors.
✓ So the nearby apartments are also maybe around 15 to 20 floors.
Problems: incorrect adjective 'near' instead of 'nearby', and incorrect order of numbers (conventionally smaller to larger). Also 'floors' needs phrasing to indicate height: 'around 15 to 20 floors'. Suggestion: use 'nearby' as adjective and present a consistent numeric range '15 to 20'.
× So they are considered a stone.
✓ So they are considered very tall buildings.
The original sentence 'considered a stone' is an incorrect idiom and unrelated metaphor, creating a sentence structure/word choice error. Replace with a clear description: 'considered very tall buildings' or 'considered high-rise buildings'. Suggestion: use accurate nouns/adjectives to describe buildings.
× You sometime when I go to Dubai, especially in downtown Dubai, there are many apartments which they are very tall.
✓ Sometimes when I go to Dubai, especially downtown, there are many apartments that are very tall.
Issues: word order and extra pronoun 'they' after 'which' causing redundancy and subject-verb agreement confusion. 'You sometime' is incorrect; use 'Sometimes'. Use 'that are' or 'which are' without adding 'they'. Suggestion: start with 'Sometimes' and use a single relative clause 'apartments that are very tall'.
× So I would like to take the photos and post or make a story in my Instagram account.
✓ So I would like to take photos and post them or make a story on my Instagram account.
Problems: article 'the photos' is unnecessary; 'post or make a story in my Instagram account' has preposition and object issues. Use 'post them' to refer back to photos, and 'on my Instagram account' is the correct preposition. Also 'make a story' is acceptable but 'post a story' is more natural. Suggestion: 'take photos and post them or post a story on my Instagram account'.
× Yeah, I would like to visit New York Tower because I did not visit until now.
✓ Yeah, I would like to visit New York Tower because I have not visited it yet.
Tense problem: 'did not visit until now' is unidiomatic. Use the present perfect 'have not visited' to indicate an experience up to now and 'yet' for unfinished actions. Also include object 'it'. Suggestion: use 'have not visited it yet'.
× But also I have visited the tallest building in the world which it's Burj Khalifa in Dubai.
✓ But I have also visited the tallest building in the world, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.
Problems: redundant pronoun 'it's' and awkward clause 'which it's Burj Khalifa'. Use apposition: 'the Burj Khalifa'. The present perfect 'have visited' is correct for past experience. Suggestion: 'I have also visited the tallest building in the world, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.'
× So also I want to visit New York tour too.
✓ So I also want to visit the New York tower too.
Issues: 'New York tour' is incorrect; likely meant 'New York Tower' as earlier. Use consistent noun and include definite article if referring to a particular building: 'the New York Tower'. Suggestion: keep consistent naming and use 'visit the New York Tower'.
× No, I don't like to live in a tall building.
✓ No, I don't want to live in a tall building.
The original 'I don't like to live' is understandable but 'I don't want to live' is a more natural expression of preference for future/intention. This is a pronoun/verb choice nuance rather than strict pronoun error; recommending 'want'. Suggestion: use 'don't want to live' to express preference.
× Oppositely I want to live in a floor or in a flat, or in a villa, which it's having only one floor, also not two floors, because I'm liking that.
✓ On the contrary, I want to live on one floor, in a flat or in a villa that has only one floor, not two, because I like that.
Multiple issues: incorrect conjunction 'Oppositely' should be 'On the contrary'. 'Live in a floor' should be 'live on one floor'. Redundant 'which it's having' and tense/verb form errors 'I'm liking that' (use 'I like that'). Suggestion: use 'On the contrary', 'live on one floor', 'that has only one floor', and 'I like that'.
× Or I'm preferring to live in flat instead of living in the sky.
✓ Or I prefer to live in a flat instead of living in the sky.
Problems: 'I'm preferring' is incorrect continuous form for a general preference; use simple present 'I prefer'. Missing article 'a' before 'flat'. 'living in the sky' is colloquial but acceptable as contrast. Suggestion: use 'I prefer to live in a flat instead of living in the sky.'
