AI examiner evaluation

Task Achievement / Task Response — Band 4.0

The response attempts to address the reasons for buying local and whether it is a positive or negative trend. However, the ideas are often unclear or disconnected from the prompt. For example, the discussion on 'fast moving consumer goods' and 'market strategic modules' does not clearly explain why consumers choose local goods. The position is not consistently maintained, and the arguments are largely underdeveloped, making it difficult for the reader to follow the logic. To improve, you should clearly state your position in the introduction and dedicate separate paragraphs to explaining the reasons and then the evaluation of the trend.

Coherence and Cohesion — Band 4.0

The essay lacks a logical flow. While there are paragraph breaks, the internal structure of these paragraphs is disjointed. Cohesive devices are either missing or used incorrectly, such as 'Whenever, As I am consumer' or 'While, A consumers'. The relationship between sentences is often unclear, and the progression of ideas is not evident. To improve, focus on using transition words like 'furthermore', 'consequently', or 'in contrast' to link your ideas, and ensure each paragraph has a clear topic sentence that relates directly to the prompt.

Lexical Resource — Band 4.0

The vocabulary is limited and often used incorrectly, which frequently impedes communication. Phrases like 'avoidance of quality for proper guidance' and 'sigh to shown your negative thoughts' are confusing and do not convey the intended meaning. There is a lack of precision in word choice, and the essay relies on repetitive or misused terminology. To improve, focus on learning collocations—words that naturally go together—and practice using topic-specific vocabulary related to economics and consumer behavior in context.

Grammatical Range and Accuracy — Band 4.0

The essay contains frequent grammatical errors that make the text difficult to understand. There are significant issues with sentence structure, subject-verb agreement, and article usage, such as 'I think for the point is logically grab' and 'As per my opinion on this select best for your products'. Complex sentence structures are attempted but are consistently inaccurate, leading to confusion. To improve, focus on mastering basic sentence patterns (Subject + Verb + Object) before attempting more complex structures, and proofread your work to correct basic errors in tense and word order.
