I live in an old although refurbished apartment. It is a six bedroom house, a kitchen, no living room and a utility room. I live with six other tenants. My room window overlooks the main streets.
I can see a couple of mistakes in your answer:
1. Instead of “house,” you mentioned that you live in an apartment.
2. You mentioned that you live with six other tenants, so it might be more accurate to say it’s a shared apartment rather than a house.
3. The correct term might be “overlooks the main street,” instead of “overlooks the main streets.”
Here is a corrected version: “I live in an old, although refurbished, apartment. It has six bedrooms, a kitchen, no living room, and a utility room. I share the apartment with six other tenants. My room window overlooks the main street.”

I live in a beautiful, relatively large house on the outskirts of my city. I live there with my family. We have many rooms where we spend a lot of time, and we also have a comfortable living room. I particularly like our open-plan kitchen because I spend most of my day there with my children.
In your answer, “beatiful” should be corrected to “beautiful” and “Hence” can be changed to “I particularly like”. Keep up the good work!
Thank youuuuu

one thing I’d like to change is the living room. I would like to make it a modern room by adding some smart appliances such as a smart T.v, smart windows and smart sofas. this room would make my life easier, the tv will download my favorite shows automatically, the windows will close by themselves if there is a rain coming, the sofa will tell me when it is the time to get up and do some exercises. that’s why I would like to change it to a modern room.
Your response is quite detailed and paints a clear picture of how you envision updating your living room with smart appliances. Just a few corrections to improve your answer:

Overall, your answer is good! Just remember to check your spelling for “brand new” instead of “brend new” and “apartment” instead of “appartament.” Also, it should be “teenage” instead of “teenager” to match with “son.” Keep up the great work!

Hello guys, i need your Help to learning inglish ,
Speaking, listening
Hello! It seems like there was a misunderstanding with the question. The question was “Tell me about the house or apartment you live in.” Could you please provide your response to that question so I can help you with your English practice?
okay, i live in a bright and cheerful apartment in a residential neighbourhood of Kolwezi. It is a large apartment that i share with my brother, they are two bedrooms, a livingroom and a small balcony overlooking the main street.
Your answer is good, but there are a few mistakes that need to be corrected:
– Instead of “they are two bedrooms”, it should be “there are two bedrooms”.
– Instead of “a livingroom”, it should be “a living room”.
Corrected answer:
“Okay, I live in a bright and cheerful apartment in a residential neighborhood of Kolwezi. It is a large apartment that I share with my brother. There are two bedrooms, a living room, and a small balcony overlooking the main street.”
Thank you for this feedback, it helps me to enhance my underwritting and shape my grammar.
You’re welcome! I’m glad to hear that the feedback was helpful for you. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask. Good luck with your studies!
Well, I live in a shared house located in a convenient area of Parramatta. It’s a relatively large apartment, and I live with my husband and three university students. Since we’re not very familiar with them, I spend most of my time in my room. My room has two huge windows, almost like a greenhouse. Every morning, I can see the busy traffic, which helps motivate me to start the day, although it’s quite noisy. However, I really enjoy the sunlight that streams into my room.
Your answer is well-structured and provides a clear picture of your living situation. I have noticed a couple of mistakes in your response:
1. Instead of “large apartment,” it would be more appropriate to use “spacious apartment” to describe the size of your living space.
2. In the sentence “Since we’re not very familiar with them, I spend most of my time in my room,” it would be better to mention who you are not familiar with to make the sentence clearer. For example, “Since we’re not very familiar with our housemates, I spend most of my time in my room.”
Overall, your response is great! Good job!
I live in an old five-story building on the fifth floor which is located on the outskirt of the city. My apartment is quiet small and cozy, I love there with my husband and daughter. I have a small balcony overlooking the park and main streets
I live in an old five-story building on the fifth floor, which is located on the outskirts of the city. My apartment is quiet small and cozy. I love living there with my husband and daughter. I have a small balcony overlooking the park and main streets.
Overall, your answer is good. Just remember to use “outskirts” instead of “outskirt” and “living” instead of “love” in the sentence “I love there with my husband and daughter.” Good job!
Well,my house is located in addis ababa which is capital of ethiopia at jomo residential apartment,my house is tiny ,but it costs reasonable monthly salary
Great job describing your house! Here is a slightly revised version of your answer:
“Well, my house is located in Addis Ababa, which is the capital of Ethiopia, in the Jomo Residential Apartments. It’s quite small, but the rent is reasonable.”
Keep up the good work!
I live in a beautiful detached house in Burlington city. It has 3 bedrooms, one living room, one family room and an open kitchen. I share this house with my wife and my 8 year old daughter. Me and my family spend most of the time in family room as it has a television and a massage chair to relax.
I live in a modern and large house with my parents, which has a beautiful garden just behind it. It is located on the southern side of our country and has a wide range of facilities for local people, such as shopping malls, markets, and even a small river for those who like swimming in summer.
Your answer is well structured and provides a clear description of your house. However, I noticed a couple of mistakes:
1. Instead of saying “just behind it”, you can say “right behind it” to sound more natural.
2. Instead of saying “for those who like swimming in summer”, you can say “for people who enjoy swimming in the summer” for better clarity.
Keep up the good work!
I live in a relatively big apartment on a local street near the south of Khobar. It’s a lively and comfortable apartment which I live in with my parents, siblings, and some extended family. It has two bedrooms, one of which is a master bedroom, a smaller but spacious kitchen, and an outside guestroom. It’s also located right next to the roof entrance, which provides an open outdoors area with a nice view of the flourishing area.
Your answer is great! Well done.
If I may suggest a small improvement, you can change “which I live in with my parents, siblings, and some extended family” to “where I live with my parents, siblings, and some extended family.” This change makes the sentence flow a bit more smoothly.
Keep up the good work!

My apartment is relatively large, which I share with my parents. It has two bedrooms, one living room, and an open-plan kitchen with a lot of decorations.

I live in a bright and cheerful townhouse which is located in the residential area of Brampton. I rent a room there. The house has 3 bedrooms upstairs, a living and dining room, and a kitchen downstairs, then another bedroom, a small kitchen, and a laundry room in the basement. We also have a small backyard. I am sharing the house with the landlord’s family and another tenant who occupies the room in the basement. In my room, I have a window. It is a pleasant home and I enjoy living there.
Your description of your house is detailed and paints a clear picture for the listener. Great job! Just a few corrections to improve it further:
“I rent a room there” can be changed to “I rent a room in the house.”.
Instead of saying “then another bedroom, a small kitchen, and a laundry room in the basement,” it can be corrected to “as well as another bedroom, a small kitchen, and a laundry room in the basement.”.
That’s all! Good luck with your IELTS preparation!
