You speak with good confidence and can keep a conversation going without much hesitation. Your answers are usually clear, and you can express ideas on both familiar and unfamiliar topics. However, sometimes your sentences feel a bit repetitive or limited in vocabulary, and occasional grammar slips reduce accuracy.
To aim higher:
Use a wider range of expressions instead of repeating the same words.
Add more detail and examples to extend your answers naturally.
Pay attention to grammar accuracy in complex sentences.

Mistakes/Issues:
Frequent hesitation and mumbling (“I cannot wait… I cannot wait…”).
Repetition of ideas (“they are orange, orange-ish like red… so beautiful”).
Limited use of connectors, mostly “and,” “because,” “but.”
Sometimes struggled to generate ideas (e.g., “Well, I'm not sure if in my country has a specific flower…”).

Question & Answer
0:00 / 0:..
Someone I admire who is older than me is my uncle, who is in his late 50s. I’ve known him since I was very young because he’s my father's brother, and we’ve always been close. He has been a great mentor to me over the years, offering valuable advice and support. We often spend time together during family gatherings or casual weekends. I enjoy talking to him about everything from life and career advice to discussing our shared interest in history and traveling. He’s very knowledgeable, so our conversations are always insightful and inspiring. We’ve also gone on a few trips together, which has been a fantastic way to bond while exploring new places. I feel a great deal of respect and admiration for my uncle. He has an incredible work ethic, and he’s always calm and composed, no matter the situation. His life experiences have shaped him into a wise and patient person, and I always find his advice helpful. I look up to him for his dedication, integrity, and the way he balances his career and personal life. His influence has definitely helped shape the person I am today.

Question & Answer
0:00 / 0:..
Young people can learn a lot from older generations, such as life wisdom, patience, and values like respect, hard work, and perseverance. Older people, on the other hand, can learn from younger generations about new technologies, modern trends, and innovative thinking. The exchange between these two groups can help bridge gaps in understanding and bring fresh perspectives to both sides.
