Do you like shopping?
Pontuação: 55.0Sugestão: Improve grammar and fluency: use correct verb forms and pronouns, make a clear topic sentence, limit to up to 5 sentences, and add a specific supporting detail. Use linking words to connect ideas (for example, 'because', 'also', 'for instance').
Exemplo: Yes, I enjoy shopping because I like buying new items and trying new products. It also helps me relax after a busy week, and I often feel excited when I find something I really want. For example, I recently bought a new jacket that fit well and made me feel confident.
Do you compare prices when you shop? Why?
Pontuação: 60.0Sugestão: Work on clarity and concise structure: start with a direct topic sentence, then give one or two clear reasons using linking words ('because', 'so', 'therefore'), correct plural and article use, and avoid filler words. Provide a specific example to support your point.
Exemplo: Yes, I usually compare prices because different stores often charge different amounts for the same product. I also check quality, so I can choose the best value. For instance, I compared two laptops last month and chose the one with better reviews and a lower price.
Is it difficult for you to make choices when you shop?
Pontuação: 58.0Sugestão: Make your answer more fluent and grammatically correct: give a clear topic sentence, explain reasons with linking words ('because', 'because of', 'so'), and use correct noun forms ('colors', 'styles', 'products'). Limit to 3–4 sentences and include a brief example or solution if possible.
Exemplo: Yes, I often find it difficult to choose because there are many colors and styles to consider. As a result, I spend a long time comparing options and imagining how each item would look. For example, picking a t-shirt can take me 20 minutes because I can't decide on the color.
Do you think expensive products are always better than cheaper ones?
Pontuação: 62.0Sugestão: Provide a balanced, well-structured answer: start with a clear opinion, then give supporting reasons and a short example. Use comparative phrases ('not always', 'often', 'usually') correctly and improve sentence variety. Keep within 3–4 sentences.
Exemplo: I don't think expensive products are always better, but often they are of higher quality and last longer. Therefore, I sometimes pay more for items like shoes or electronics to avoid replacing them soon. For example, I bought an inexpensive headset once and had to replace it after a month, so now I choose mid-range brands for durability.
× Yes, I like shopping because I really interesting, buy new things and try new products.
✓ Yes, I like shopping because I am really interested in buying new things and trying new products.
The student used 'interesting' (an adjective describing something that causes interest) instead of 'interested' (an adjective describing a person) and omitted necessary verbs and prepositions. Use 'interested in' + gerund for expressing personal interest. Also verbs 'buy' and 'try' should be gerunds to follow 'interested in' or be connected with 'and' after a main verb. Suggestion: say 'I am really interested in buying new things and trying new products.'
× So that's why really like shopping.
✓ So that's why I really like shopping.
The subject 'I' is missing before the verb 'really like', causing incorrect sentence structure. Always include the subject for clarity: 'I really like shopping.'
× Also it helps me relax and sometimes you're so excited.
✓ Also it helps me relax and sometimes I'm so excited.
The student used 'you're' (you are) incorrectly instead of 'I'm' (I am). Pronouns must agree with the speaker; here the student refers to themselves. Use 'I'm' to mean 'I am'.
× Yeah, be yeah, I usually compare price when I shop because sometimes I shop there's shops has same product but the price is different.
✓ Yeah, I usually compare prices when I shop because sometimes there are shops that have the same product but the price is different.
Multiple issues: 'price' should be plural 'prices' when speaking generally; 'there's shops' is incorrect contraction and number—use 'there are shops'; 'shops has' violates subject-verb agreement—use 'shops that have'. These correct third person plural/verb agreements and plural nouns.
× So I usually check the prices and then quality as well.
✓ So I usually check the prices and the quality as well.
The noun 'quality' needs a definite article 'the' to specify what is being compared (price and quality). Adding 'the' clarifies parallel structure: 'check the prices and the quality.'
× So it's quite it helped me to choose.
✓ So it quite helps me to choose.
The sentence mixed tenses and used past 'helped' after present 'it's'. Keep present tense to match habitual action: use 'helps' (present simple, third person singular) or rewrite 'So it helped me choose' if referring to a specific past event. Suggestion: 'So it quite helps me to choose.'
× Yeah, it's really challenging to me to yeah.
✓ Yes, it's really challenging for me.
The phrase 'challenging to me to' is awkward; use 'challenging for me'. Remove filler 'yeah' and keep concise structure: 'It's really challenging for me.'
× Is it because the there are so many colour or styles, so I have to consider many things.
✓ Is it because there are so many colours and styles, so I have to consider many things.
Remove redundant 'the' before 'there'. Use plural 'colours' and 'styles' and use 'and' not 'or' to list multiple attributes. Also 'there are' is correct for plural. Suggestion: 'there are so many colours and styles.'
× So it's quite hard to choose one products.
✓ So it's quite hard to choose one product.
Mixing singular 'one' with plural 'products' is incorrect. Use singular noun 'product' after 'one.'
× I think expensive products are not always better than cheaper, but most of times expensive products are better than cheaper because usually there are more good quality and then I can use a long time, so that's why I can use it.
✓ I think expensive products are not always better than cheaper ones, but most of the time expensive products are better than cheaper ones because they usually have better quality and last a long time, so I can use them longer.
Several corrections: 'cheaper' as an adjective needs a noun or 'ones' to replace 'products'; use 'most of the time' (not 'times'); 'more good quality' is ungrammatical—use 'better quality' or 'have better quality'; 'use a long time' should be 'last a long time' or 'can be used for a long time'; pronoun agreement: replace singular 'it' with plural 'them' to refer to 'products'. Ensure consistent plural forms and correct comparative adjectives.
