Do you like shopping?
Candidato
I'm fond of shopping. I think I'm already addicted to it. I like shopping it online or even when the shopping is my cup of tea. It helps me relieve stress and relax.
Examinador
Do you compare prices when you shop? Why?
Candidato
Of course I do compare prices, who would want to pay more? But when I go shopping at the store, I tend to find a product number and I searched it online and compare it.
Examinador
Is it difficult for you to make choices when you shop?
Candidato
Yes, it's difficult because I'm an indecisive person and there are too many different products these days. It makes me difficult to decide what should I buy.
Examinador
Do you think expensive products are always better than cheaper ones?
Candidato
It depends. Some expensive products are worth, but on the other hand some products are just overpriced compared to their value.

Do you like shopping?
Puntuación: 68.0Sugerencia: Be concise, correct grammar, and avoid redundancy. Start with a clear topic sentence, correct errors (e.g., "shopping it online" → "shopping online", "when the shopping is my cup of tea" is unnatural), and give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Keep it within 3–4 sentences.
Ejemplo: Yes, I enjoy shopping. I often shop online because it’s convenient and offers more choices, and I also like browsing in stores when I want a break. For example, when I'm stressed after work I sometimes buy a small item to help me relax.
Do you compare prices when you shop? Why?
Puntuación: 72.0Sugerencia: Use a clear present-tense structure and link ideas logically. Avoid colloquial fragments like "who would want to pay more?" Instead give a direct topic sentence and one specific detail about your method, using linking words (e.g., "so", "for example").
Ejemplo: Yes, I always compare prices because I don't want to overpay. For example, if I see something in a store I note the product number and then search for it online to compare prices, so I can find the best deal.
Is it difficult for you to make choices when you shop?
Puntuación: 64.0Sugerencia: Be grammatically precise and avoid repeating the same idea. Use a topic sentence then add a specific reason and an example, linking them smoothly. Correct word order and phrasing (e.g., "it makes it difficult for me to decide what to buy").
Ejemplo: Yes, I often find it hard to choose because there are so many options available. For instance, when buying a laptop I spend a long time comparing features and reviews, so I usually make lists to narrow down the choices.
Do you think expensive products are always better than cheaper ones?
Puntuación: 76.0Sugerencia: Give a clear opinion and support it with specific reasons and an example. Use linking words like "however" or "for example" and complete phrases (e.g., "worth it" rather than "worth").
Ejemplo: Not necessarily. Some expensive items are worth the price because they have better quality or a longer lifespan; however, many products are overpriced for only minor improvements. For example, I prefer to buy mid-range headphones because they offer good sound without the premium brand markup.

✓ I'm fond of shopping. I think I'm already addicted to it. I like shopping online or even when shopping is my cup of tea.
The phrase 'like shopping it online' incorrectly inserts the pronoun 'it' after 'shopping'; 'shopping' here functions as a gerund and should take a prepositional phrase without 'it' (verb + -ing form error). Also 'when the shopping is my cup of tea' is awkward: 'when shopping is my cup of tea' uses 'shopping' as a gerund subject. Suggest removing 'it' and the extra article 'the' to make the gerund phrase correct.'},{
