Your band at a glance
Text-based practice estimate
From 3 of the 4 criteria (FC, LR, GRA). Pronunciation is not assessed from typed answers.
Band 6.0–8.0 diagnostic evidence range. No single centre is shown because the range is wider than one band.
AWhy no single figure: your evidence spans more than one band, so this report shows the range only. A centre is shown only when the range is one band wide or less.
BRange widened to ±1.0: this text-based estimate uses typed answers only, so pronunciation is not assessed.
This report is based on typed answers. We can analyse vocabulary, grammar, response structure and idea development, but pronunciation and full spoken fluency require a recording.
Your clearest next priority: Fluency & Coherence
Fluency & Coherence and Grammatical Range & Accuracy are within half a band of each other in this sample; Fluency & Coherence is the most likely next priority (lowest band first, then the stronger evidence).
Evidence: “What I like most is there are a lot of restaurants and cafes near my home, so it is very convenient.”
Confidence: Medium
What you already do well: Lexical Resource
Lexical Resource is your strongest assessed area in this sample, as your own words show.
Evidence: “I think it is a good place for young people because they can find many activities, but sometimes it is quite noisy at night.”
Use that strength: Your vocabulary can carry the ideas: use the same precise words as anchors while you practise linking each point to a reason and an example.
Your next practice action
Take your sentence “What I like most is there are a lot of restaurants and cafes near my home, so it is very convenient.” and say it again as three linked sentences: your point, a reason (because…) and an example (for example…).
How you will know it improved: In your next mock, more of your answers link a point to a reason and an example, without stopping mid-idea.
Also watch: Grammar Range & Accuracy. Grammatical Range & Accuracy is also close to the lowest band in this sample; return to it once the first priority improves.
Built by code from your scored evidence, using the same rules for every learner.

Task and sample analysis
Familiar topics
Task demandAnswer 3 short questions about familiar, personal topics.
- Let's talk about where you live. Do you live in a house or an apartment?
- What do you like most about your neighbourhood?
- Is it a good place for young people to live? Why?
You answered the Part 1 task directly and gave reasons.
Observed development3 sentence(s), 3 different linking word(s), no example; 2 sentence(s) ran past 15 words.
From your answer: “What I like most is there are a lot of restaurants and cafes near my home, so it is very convenient”
Limit on interpretationPart 1 asks about familiar, personal topics, so it shows little of your range on abstract ideas.
Long turn
Task demandTalk on your own about the task card for up to 2 minutes, after 1 minute of preparation.
- Describe a place you enjoy visiting.
- where it is
- how often you go there
- what you do there
- and explain why you enjoy visiting this place.
You answered the Part 2 task directly and gave reasons.
Observed development5 sentence(s), 2 different linking word(s), no example; 2 sentence(s) ran past 15 words.
From your answer: “I would like to describe West Lake, which is in Hanoi”
Limit on interpretationOne long turn on one topic shows how you sustain a description, not how you handle follow-up questions.
Discussion
Task demandDiscuss 3 more abstract questions linked to the Part 2 topic, with reasons and examples.
- Why do you think people need places they can go to relax?
- Do you think cities provide enough public spaces? Why or why not?
- How might the places people visit change in the future?
You answered the Part 3 task directly and gave reasons.
Observed development4 sentence(s), 3 different linking word(s), no example; 2 sentence(s) ran past 15 words.
From your answer: “I think people need places to relax because modern life is very busy and stressful”
Limit on interpretationA few discussion questions give limited evidence of how you argue and compare ideas at length.

Stable features
You linked ideas with 'because' in every part and answered in full sentences throughout.
Degradation under demand
More errors were marked in Part 3 (1) than in Part 1 (0), where the questions were more abstract. (“the government build too”)
Sustainability
Average sentence length stayed between 15.5 and 19 words across the parts.
Four-criterion diagnostic profile
Fluency & Coherence
High
“What I like most is there are a lot of restaurants and cafes near my home, so it is very convenient.”
7 discourse markers, 2 fillers across 202 words.
Band 7: Speaks at length without noticeable effort; some hesitation is about ideas, not language; uses a range of connectives flexibly.
Check whether linking stays varied when the learner answers without preparation.
Lexical Resource
Medium
“I think it is a good place for young people because they can find many activities, but sometimes it is quite noisy at night.”
Type-token ratio 0.63 over 202 words.
Not enough evidence to identify a reliable higher-band gap.
Check whether the learner can paraphrase the question in other words.
Grammar Range & Accuracy
Medium
“I enjoy this place because the air is more fresh than other places in the city, and the view in the evening is very beautiful.”
9 complex sentence(s) detected.
Band 7: Uses a range of complex structures with some flexibility; frequently produces error-free sentences, though some mistakes persist.
Check agreement and comparative forms in a fresh spoken answer.
Pronunciation
not rateable from typed text
No audio was analysed for this sitting.
Not assessed: pronunciation cannot be judged from typed answers. Record your answers for a pronunciation estimate.
Listen to the learner answer aloud before rating pronunciation; typed text carries no sound.
Reading the profile
Fluency & Coherence (6.5) sets the ceiling. Your diagnostic range is 6.0–8.0; the checks in Section J matter most where confidence is lower.
Your words as evidence
C · Selected fidelity excerpts
“the government build too” [the government builds too]
A singular subject needs a verb ending in -s in the present simple.
“more fresh than” [fresher than]
Short adjectives form comparatives with -er.
Your words exactly as you typed them; a better version follows in [brackets].

Range, ceiling and gap
F · Overall diagnostic range and target
Band 8.0: your target, a reference, not a forecast. Your target lies inside your range, so this sitting does not settle it either way.
Diagnostic centre not shown: the range is wider than one band.
Range widened to ±1.0: this text-based estimate uses typed answers only, so pronunciation is not assessed.

Gap to the next band, criterion by criterion
| FC | Band 7: Speaks at length without noticeable effort; some hesitation is about ideas, not language; uses a range of connectives flexibly. |
| LR | Band 8: Uses a wide range of vocabulary readily and flexibly, including less common and idiomatic items skilfully, with occasional inaccuracies. |
| GRA | Band 7: Uses a range of complex structures with some flexibility; frequently produces error-free sentences, though some mistakes persist. |
| PR | Not assessed: pronunciation cannot be judged from typed answers. Record your answers for a pronunciation estimate. |

Intervention sequence
A sequence of work, not a schedule. Each step uses the same loop: explain, drill, re-answer, homework, success check.
Success check 1
Next mock: the same criterion shows the change in at least two answers.
Success check 2
No subject–verb agreement error like "the government build too" in your next recorded answer.
Success check 3
No word form error like "more fresh than" in your next recorded answer.
Three priority interventions
Point, reason and example in every answer
FCNo verbatim quote was kept for this priority.
Verb endings after singular subjects
GRAEvidence: Part 3: “the government build too”. Breakdown: A singular subject needs a verb ending in -s in the present simple.
Comparative and adjective forms
GRAEvidence: Part 2: “more fresh than”. Breakdown: Short adjectives form comparatives with -er.
Why this order. The priorities run from the most band-limiting first. Every priority uses the same loop: explain, drill, re-answer, homework, success check.
Next action, teacher checks and integrity
I · Your next action
Take your sentence “What I like most is there are a lot of restaurants and cafes near my home, so it is very convenient.” and say it again as three linked sentences: your point, a reason (because…) and an example (for example…). How you will know it improved: In your next mock, more of your answers link a point to a reason and an example, without stopping mid-idea.
Reasoning (coaching, non-official): Point→Reason present but no concrete Example. Add one specific instance to lift depth (non-official coaching).
Your pathway up
- Priority — Fluency & Coherence: Fluency drills: 10-minute daily timed talks, reduce fillers, add discourse markers.
- Practise this priority, then take another mock to check whether it has changed.
- Optional support with a person: a Live Speaking Baseline or 1-to-1 lessons.
J · For your teacher: what this report could not verify
Take this list to a teacher. Each item is something an automated report cannot check on its own.
PRPronunciation was not rateable from typed text. Listen to the learner answer aloud before rating it.
GRACheck whether singular subjects keep their -s ending in a fresh spoken answer, not only in writing.
GRACheck comparative forms when the learner compares two places without preparation.
LRCheck whether the learner can paraphrase a Part 2 task card topic without repeating its words.
