Do you like buying shoes? How often?
Pontuação: 74.0Sugestão: Be more concise and use a clear topic sentence first, then add one specific supporting detail. Avoid redundant phrases like 'actually' and 'only' repeated. Use a simple linking word to connect the ideas.
Exemplo: Yes, I do like buying shoes. However, most of my shoes are gifts from my sisters, so I only buy new ones when I need them or can afford them.
Have you ever bought shoes online?
Pontuação: 78.0Sugestão: Start with a clear direct answer, then give two brief, specific details linked logically. Avoid repeating fillers like 'actually' and use correct possessive forms (its).
Exemplo: Yes, I recently bought a pair online. It was a pink ANDA pair that is very comfortable and affordable, so I was pleased with the purchase.
How much money do you usually spend on shoes?
Pontuação: 72.0Sugestão: Give a clear numeric range in one sentence and then briefly explain the reason with a linking word like 'because' or 'since'. Avoid repeating the same clause.

Which do you prefer, fashionable shoes or comfortable shoes?
Pontuação: 85.0Sugestão: Your answer is clear and relevant. To improve, make the first sentence a stronger topic sentence and combine the two ideas with a linking word like 'and' or 'however' to make it more concise.
Exemplo: I prefer comfortable shoes because they let me walk confidently without discomfort, but many modern designs are both comfortable and stylish, so I can enjoy both qualities.
× Yes I actually do like buying shoes but most of my shoes I got from my sisters as a gift and I only buy shoes when I have the means to and when I need it only.
✓ Yes, I actually do like buying shoes, but most of my shoes I got from my sisters as gifts, and I only buy shoes when I have the means and when I need them.
Pronoun agreement and plurality: 'a gift' should be 'gifts' because 'most of my shoes' implies multiple gifts; 'it' incorrectly refers to 'shoes' (plural) so use 'them'. Also 'when I have the means to' is redundant with 'to' and punctuation added for clarity. Improve by ensuring pronouns agree in number with their antecedents and matching singular/plural nouns.
× Yes, actually I just bought shoes online and it's brand was ANDA and it's color pink and comfortable and most especially it is very affordable.
✓ Yes, actually I just bought shoes online; the brand is ANDA, the color is pink, they are comfortable, and, most especially, they are very affordable.
Article and pronoun errors: use 'the brand' and 'the color' rather than 'it's brand' (also 'it's' is wrong for 'its'); 'it's' is a contraction meaning 'it is'. Also 'shoes' is plural, so use 'they are' rather than 'it is' for comfort and affordability. Improve by using correct possessive 'its' when needed, and ensure pronouns agree in number with the noun they refer to.
× Well, I usually spend 100 to $150 on shoes because I do not like spending much on shoes because I can still be comfortable using the affordable ones.
✓ Well, I usually spend $100 to $150 on shoes because I do not like spending much; I can still be comfortable using affordable ones.
Quantifier and formatting: currency should consistently include the dollar sign before both amounts ('$100 to $150'). Repetition of 'because' makes the sentence awkward; simplify and remove redundancy. Improve by writing currency consistently and avoiding repeated conjunctions.
× Well, I prefer comfortable shoes over fashionable ones because they help me walk confidently and avoid discomfort.
✓ Well, I prefer comfortable shoes to fashionable ones because they help me walk confidently and avoid discomfort.
Preposition/structure: use 'prefer X to Y' rather than 'prefer X over Y' for standard formal English. The rest of the sentence is correct. Improve by using the conventional 'prefer... to' structure.
× Also, there are a lot of shoes now that are both comfortable and stylish, so I can have the best of both worlds.
✓ Also, there are many shoes now that are both comfortable and stylish, so I can have the best of both worlds.
Word choice and register: 'a lot of' is informal; use 'many' for more formal or concise expression. The sentence structure is otherwise correct. Improve by choosing more appropriate quantifier for the intended register.
