    Your vocabulary is great, but your sentences formation isn't good. It's confused! Take a look on my suggestion:

    "I went to shopping to buy my father's birthday present yesterday. I wanted to buy a model of ship. When i was there, i discovered the shop, where i would buy the gift, was closed. I've always wanted to buy it there. I've looked for another shop, but there wasn't any other. I was very disappointed!"

    Your spelling is very good, and overall a good job, but there are a few grammatical mistakes. Here is what I would write:

    "I went shopping for my father's birthday present yesterday. I wanted to buy a model ship. When I went to that shop, the ship wasn't there. I have always wanted to buy it there. I went to another shop, because I had a second choice, but they also didn't have the ship. The pity of it."

Tips for Good Reviews:

Be Specific

  • Write more than just brief comments like “Good job” or “Needs work".
Make Corrections
  • Use the editing features to apply strikethrough, bold or different font colors.
  • Use the virtual keyboard to insert special characters in your reviews.
Teach by Example
  • Review a speaking exercise by recording your own audio comment.
  • Focus on correct pronunciation and speaking patterns.
