#1. Content

Content signifies the information about the pie chart which you record in the response. You should describe all the relevant information in the image. Your description of the image should have logical and specific information, including possible developments, implications or conclusions. Mentioning only some of the information in an unorganised manner will result in negative marking.

#2. Oral Fluency

Your way of speaking has to be smooth, at a natural pace. You have to focus on answering with appropriate phrasing, smooth rhythm and enough stress. Speak at a constant and natural rate of speech. And do not hesitate, repeat or false start the statement, or else it will affect the score.

#3. Pronunciation

Speak in a way that your response should be understood by a regular speaker immediately. To give the best response, ensure you pronounce the vowels and consonants in a native-like way, stress on the words and phrase them correctly.
