Performance Summary: This candidate is generally intelligible throughout despite mispronouncing a few particular items; he responds well to most topics with a sufficient vocabulary range; his comprehension is mostly accurate in all situations (although his requests for clarification hold him to a Level 5); and he responds appropriately and informatively throughout, clearly demonstrating an ability to manage the interaction. While he is able to communicate effectively, use a range of sentence patterns, and construct some complex sentences successfully, errors in basic structures limit him to a Level 4. Although he is able to construct stretches of language and make effective use of discourse markers to structure his turns, he relies on fairly slow speech to give himself time to think.
