    Hello Nancy, Thank you for inviting me to review your work and you have done well with this recording. Directions are never easy to say or to write for people. My observations on your work include minor points such as the word 'traffic' which should be pronounced 'traf-ik', not adding an extra 'a' to some words including east-a and clearly saying 'Go two blocks' instead of 'Go to blocks'. Having said this, you have done well. You are improving with each submission and recording. Well done and I'll just record this to help with your studies. Kind regards, John

    This was really confident and clear.

    Apart from two very unimportant errors, as John has pointed out below, I am very impressed.

    Keep it up!

    Excellent. The only error I noticed was that you said "City Cent" instead of "City Cent-er". It really sounds (in American English) like "Cidy Centur"; I'll record it for you.

Tips for Good Reviews:

Be Specific
  • Give useful suggestions and examples.
  • 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.
