Do you like chatting with friends?
Score: 48.0Suggestion: Be direct and grammatical: start with a clear topic sentence that answers the question, then add one or two specific reasons using linking words. Correct verb forms and articles (e.g., "depends", "they are abroad"). Keep to a maximum of 4–5 short sentences.
Example: I sometimes like chatting with friends, but it depends on the situation. For example, I chat a lot with friends who live abroad because messaging helps us keep in touch. However, when friends are nearby I prefer face-to-face conversation because it feels more personal and natural.
What do you usually chat about with friends?
Score: 44.0Suggestion: Answer directly, then give specific topics with clear linking words. Avoid contradictory statements; if you prefer face-to-face, explain how often you chat online and why. Use correct noun phrases and simpler vocabulary when unsure.
Example: We usually talk about work, daily life and occasionally gossip or share short videos. However, I prefer face-to-face conversations because they feel more meaningful, so I only text when meeting in person isn't possible.
Do you prefer to chat with a group of people or with only one friend?
Score: 52.0Suggestion: Start with a clear preference (group or one-on-one) and then give a specific reason with a linking word. Use correct tense and avoid long unclear recollections unless they support your point; keep to 3–4 sentences.
Example: I prefer chatting in a group because it reminds me of school days when we all kept in touch and shared memories. For instance, my tenth-grade friends and I used a group chat to gossip and plan meetups, which was fun and relaxed.
Do you prefer to communicate face-to-face or via social media?
Score: 46.0Suggestion: Give a direct answer first, then give two clear reasons using linking words (for example, 'because' and 'so'). Avoid filler words and correct vocabulary (e.g., 'reduce misunderstandings', 'use non-verbal cues'). Keep sentences concise.
Example: I prefer face-to-face communication because it allows non-verbal cues like eye contact and body language. As a result, it reduces misunderstandings and makes conversations feel more genuine.
Do you argue with friends?
Score: 40.0Suggestion: Answer clearly with a topic sentence (Yes/No/Sometimes), then explain with a specific example and reason. Use correct grammar (subject-verb agreement) and avoid vague pronouns. Limit to 3–4 concise sentences.
Example: Sometimes I argue with friends, but only when there are specific issues like laziness or broken promises. For example, I once argued with a friend who repeatedly missed group study sessions because it affected my results; we later resolved it by agreeing on a schedule.
× It's actually depend on the situation but always not.
✓ It actually depends on the situation, but not always.
Subject-verb agreement and present tense: 'It' requires the third person singular verb form 'depends' rather than 'depend'. Also 'always not' is unnatural; 'not always' is the correct adverb placement. Suggestion: use 'depends' and place 'not' before 'always' to convey meaning.
× For example when I chat with my friends they are in abroad so it is beneficial for me and moreover when friend is near so I want to communicate with face to face, not on chatting.
✓ For example, when I chat with my friends who are abroad, it is beneficial for me; moreover, when a friend is nearby, I prefer to communicate face to face rather than by chat.
Multiple preposition and article errors: use 'abroad' without 'in' and add 'who are' to modify 'friends'. Use 'a friend' and 'nearby' instead of 'near'. Use 'face to face' without 'with' and 'by chat' or 'via chat' rather than 'on chatting'. Suggestion: simplify clauses and use correct prepositions and articles.
× I usually chat about with friends such as work or office work and moreover gossip things and share reels.
✓ I usually chat with friends about topics such as work or office matters; moreover, we gossip and share reels.
Incorrect word order and preposition: 'chat about with friends' is redundant; correct order is 'chat with friends about'. 'Gossip things' is unidiomatic; use 'gossip' or 'talk about gossip'. Suggestion: place 'with friends' before 'about' and use appropriate nouns ('matters').
× But uh actually I do not. I'm not a shared person.
✓ But actually I do not. I'm not a very social person.
Incorrect adjective choice and collocation: 'shared person' is incorrect; likely meant 'social' or 'sharing'. Use 'social' to describe someone who likes to share or socialize. Suggestion: choose collocations that match meaning (e.g., 'not very social' or 'I don't like to share personal things').
× I want to face to face communicate because face to face conversation feel more natural and meaningful.
✓ I prefer to communicate face to face because face-to-face conversation feels more natural and meaningful.
Word order and verb form: use 'prefer to communicate' rather than 'want to face to face communicate'. Also 'conversation' is singular so verb must be 'feels'. Hyphenate 'face-to-face' when used as an adjective. Suggestion: use 'prefer to' + verb and ensure subject-verb agreement.
× Actually, I remind my 10th class memory when we were in separate.
✓ Actually, I remember my 10th grade memories from when we were apart.
Wrong verb choice and noun phrases: 'remind' is transitive and not used this way; use 'remember'. '10th class' should be '10th grade' or 'class 10', and 'were in separate' should be 'were apart' or 'separated'. Suggestion: use 'remember' for recalling memories and correct noun/adjective order.
× So we will chat in Group and miss each other.
✓ So we would chat in a group and miss each other.
Tense and article/preposition: 'chat in Group' is unidiomatic; use 'chat in a group' or 'chat in the group'. Also past recollection prefers 'would' instead of future 'will'. Suggestion: use 'would' when describing habitual past actions and include the article 'a'.
× I really miss that time because it was a memorable time for me and we will gossip and we do not have pressure and yeah we will chat in Group.
✓ I really miss that time because it was memorable for me; we used to gossip, we didn't have pressure, and we would chat in a group.
Tense inconsistency: mix of past and future forms. When describing past habitual actions, use 'used to' or 'would' and past tense forms like 'didn't have'. Also 'in Group' needs an article. Suggestion: maintain past tense for past memories and use 'used to'/'would' for habits.
× Prefer to communicate face to face because when we communicate face to face, so we cannot use umm, we can use verbal expression such as active listening and face to face communication also help misunderstanding.
✓ I prefer to communicate face to face because when we communicate in person, we can use verbal cues such as active listening, and face-to-face communication also helps prevent misunderstandings.
Missing subject, article and word choice: begin with 'I prefer'. Use 'in person' or 'face to face' consistently and hyphenate when adjectival. 'Cannot use umm' is unclear; intended meaning is that nonverbal/verbal cues are available. 'Help misunderstanding' should be 'helps prevent misunderstandings'. Suggestion: state subject, use correct verb forms and idiomatic phrases.
× So likely when uh, my friend, we are do not talk to each other. So uh, we face to face communication.
✓ So, if my friend and I are not talking to each other, we will communicate face to face.
Confused sentence structure and incorrect verb order: 'we are do not talk' mixes auxiliary order. Use conditional 'if' and correct subject order 'my friend and I'. 'Face to face communication' needs a verb. Suggestion: use clear conditional clauses and proper subject-verb order.
× Yeah, but it depends on situation.
✓ Yes, but it depends on the situation.
Missing article and word choice: 'situation' requires the definite article 'the' in this context. Suggestion: include articles with singular countable nouns when referring to a specific situation.
× When you annoy it and frustrating friend it are lazy and do not do and do not do work with you.
✓ When a friend annoys and frustrates you by being lazy and refusing to work with you, we might argue.
Pronoun and verb errors: unclear pronoun references and incorrect verb forms. 'You annoy it' is wrong; restructure to passive/active: 'a friend annoys and frustrates you'. Use 'refusing to work with you' to describe behavior. Suggestion: identify subject clearly and use correct verb forms.
× So yeah we are given that.
✓ So, yes, that can happen.
Unclear phrase 'we are given that' is non-idiomatic. Replace with natural response 'that can happen' or 'we tolerate that' depending on meaning. Suggestion: choose common idiomatic expressions.
× And when you kind hearted person and friend so you can do with him.
✓ And when you are a kind-hearted person and your friend is too, you can get along with him.
Missing verbs and hyphenation: need 'are' after 'you' and hyphenate 'kind-hearted'. Clarify subject relationships: 'your friend is too' or 'and your friend is kind-hearted' and use 'get along with' for compatibility. Suggestion: include linking verbs and hyphenate compound adjectives.
× So it depends on situation.
✓ So it depends on the situation.
Same article omission as earlier: include 'the' before 'situation'. Maintain present tense 'depends'. Suggestion: remember articles with singular countable nouns.
