Hi, Kami, Thanks for sharing about the incident with the watch. I think your mom understands that you were just a child when this happened, so hopefully you don’t have to worry about repaying her for breaking it.  Agreeing with the assessment previously done, I would say that you really need to con...

Hello, lkrishna, Thank you for sharing your recording. Driving is a lot of fun, especially with the right car, the right road, and the right weather. First, I’d like to say that you were fluent overall in your speech. There were few pauses in your recording, and you continued speaking. However, you ...

Hi, Ielts 7. Thanks for sharing your recording with us! I think libraries are the most amazing institution in the world, so I loved listening to your speech. Here are some thoughts. First, your speech sounds very memorized or like you were reading it. I understand the need to write down a speech, bu...

Hello, Fenobus. Thanks for sharing your recording with us! First, I’d like to say that I am going to assume you have been learning English from a young age, as Nigeria is a country where the language is widely spoken, in addition to many others.

Hello, Terry3218. Thanks for sharing your recording. While I cannot comment on whether this is a band 8 speech, I will say the following: 1.) You have a nice introduction. You went from general to specific, but you didn’t waste much time on it. You got to the point of answering the questions right a...

This recording was short, as you said, but here are some notes: 1.) Perhaps you could have explained the picture tradition a bit more as I, as a person not familiar with this custom, am quite curious about it. What do people do with the pictures, exactly? 2.) Remember to stick your tongue between yo...

This is regarding the first recording: Hi, Matilda, Thank you for your recording. You did a nice job, overall. First, your pronunciation was easy to understand, so nice work there. Additionally, I like that you gave some examples of what you were talking about in your speech. You said, “for instance...

I just meant those are good high-level words to use.

Thanks again for sharing the second recording. I’m not sure what I would do without my laptop, so I understand your connection to your tablet-PC.

Hi, Terry3218, Thank you for sharing your recording of your speech. Here is some commentary for your first recording.

Hi, KrK, Thank you for sharing your recording. First, your speech was quite well-organized. You gave a solid introduction that made it easy for me, as a listener, to know what to expect. You used transition words to separate and at the same time link your different ideas together. Also, your vocabul...

Hello, Anye, Thank you for sharing your thoughts about this professor. I can see why he was influential. Being a mentor was going above and beyond his job description. Would that all teachers were like him. Your vocabulary was quite good. I heard “disclosed my intentions,” although I wonder if this ...

Hi, Anye, Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences here. First, your vocabulary is quite advanced. I heard “profound,” “delivery ward,” etc. I would encourage you to work on the pronunciation of “fateful” because it sounded like “faithful” when you said it. Your pronunciation is overall e...

My apologies. I just downloaded the top file that was attached to your post and didn’t pay attention to which was labeled “first” and “second.” Sorry! That being said, here are some notes. First, your pronunciation was a bit difficult to understand at the very beginning after you said your favorite ...

Hello, IndianHarry, Thanks for sharing your recording with us. First, I’d like to echo OnlineEnglishTeacher and say that your vocabulary was great. I heard “relentlessly nudging,” “technophile,” “technophobes,” “pertains,” and many other great words. I also heard a couple of idioms, such as “an expe...

Sorry, I still can't get it to load for some reason. It may be a problem on my end. Thanks for trying, though.

Here are some grammar notes from this recording: -“To love to me is a feeling to what people who are important and close to me.” – You might rephrase this as “Love is a feeling is what I feel for people who are important and close to me.” You started off with “to love,” an infinitive, so I would exp...

You have great ideas, and you organize them well. Your vocabulary is fantastic and so is your grammar (“if I were to choose, . . .I would choose the former,” for example), as I’ve noted before, but I would encourage you to reduce the number of fillers you use, like, “umm. . .” It detracts from your ...

Hello, again. In the recording about the elements of friendship, I again want to commend you on your use of vocabulary. You use words like “crucial,” and regularly use the words in such a way that it sounds natural and unforced. You have apparently worked hard building your vocabulary. Nice work. I ...

I couldn't get the last file to download, so I can't comment on it.
