Nazanin Ghasem Pour
Nazanin was able to name the days of the week, but now in the correct order, also, she could comprehend her questions quite well. Furthermore, she used conjunctions correctly and spoke at a good pace. However, she used the present continuous form with ‘to’ to talk about what she did in her free time, for example, ‘I’m going to shopping’ and she did not use articles before nouns, especially with job occupations. So she should work on her grammar more.
Fatemeh Zarei
Fatemeh was able to name six out of the 12 months and they were in the correct order. In addition, she spoke in full sentences, used the correct tense when she spoke about what she did in her spare time and she used suitable vocabulary throughout.

Zahra Sedaghatkish
Zahra was a pleasant candidate who could comprehend the majority of questions well. Furthermore, she could use conjunctions properly to join her sentence parts together and used examples in her answers. However, she needs to work on auxiliaries and articles more because she missed them out of a few of her replies. Also, she mispronounced ‘family’ because she stressed the wrong syllable.
Marziyeh Khademi
Marziyeh could name days of the week in order and used frequency adverbs well. Furthermore, she used an impressive amount of vocabulary and demonstrated excellent listening skills as she could comprehend all of her questions. She did, however, make a couple of pronunciation mistakes one being ‘monument’ and once or twice, she used an incorrect verb and missed an ‘s’ off it in positive sentences as she said, ‘it get me energy’ instead of ‘gives’.
Zohreh Ghorbani
Zohreh used comparative language well and was able to speak in the present simple tense correctly when answering her question on routine. Also, she used the correct form of a word in her sentences. However, she needs to work on her pronunciation more as said ‘twonce’ instead of either ‘twice’ or ‘once’. Finally, she was not able to understand her question on months of the year, so she work on her listening more.
Eilnaz Ardalan
Eilnaz gave a detailed introduction and was able to name of all the months in order. Furthermore, she gave in-depth answers, spoke in a variety of tense, including the future simple, and always used full sentences. Having said this, she made a few errors when it came to using the correct form of a verb, for example, ‘I graduation in Law’. Finally, she missed an ‘s’ of plural nouns a couple of times too, so she should be careful with this too.
Marziyeh Ghorbanzadeh
Marziyeh spoke clearly and had good pronunciation of words. Also, she demonstrated good listening skills as she could understand all of her questions. Although she could comprehend them all, she did not give a full reply and instead gave rather brief ones. So she needs to work on ways to extend her For example, when she was asked about what she did in her free time, she said that she liked going to the cinema, but she could have said who with or what she liked to watch etc. Finally, she used a positive form of a verb rather than the negative form such as, ‘I do either’.

Nazanin could say the days of the week in order and spoke at a good pace. Also, she used a good amount of vocabulary. However, she often missed out main verbs, such as, ‘my father blue eyes’ and used both past and present simple verbs in the same sentence. So she needs to work on her grammar more, also she should work on her listening slightly as when asked about her favourite meal, she responded with an answer on apartments.
Mohamad RezaHoseiniPoya
Mohamad Reza spoke at a natural pace and had some appropriate ideas in his answers. Furthermore, he was able to use examples to support his ideas and used phrasal verbs and opinionative language well. Having said this, he should try to use more opening phrases to start his answers as he only did this a couple of times. Also, when asked about what he did for a living he responded with an answer about where he lives, but then when I repeated it he did not know what was being asked, so he should work on expanding his vocabulary a little more.
Mehdi Sadeghi
Mehdi could speak in simple sentences and had good listening skills as he could understand the majority of his questions easily. However, he sometimes gave quite short replies and used an incorrect verb pattern by inserting a ‘to’ when it was not needed, such as, ‘I go to swimming’.

Fatemeh Asnaashar
Fatemeh was a conscientious speaker who tried to answer all of her questions. Also, she could speak in simple sentences, but there were several occasions when she misunderstood a question and this resulted in some confusion.

Iman Esmaili
Iman used complex structures well, including conditional sentences. Also, he used a wide range of vocabulary and spoke at a good pace.

Shahram Amiri
Shahram was able to comprehend all of his questions easily and could use appropriate language and examples in his replies. Furthermore, he used an array of words and spoke in full sentences using clauses and modals correctly.
