This is a sample report on a made-up answer, to show what feedback looks like. Record your own to get one on what you said.

For your next attempt

Say the change in your first sentence: “I used to think working from home was lazy. I don’t anymore.”

Developing

You answered the question and gave a real reason, which is the hard part. The point arrives late, after two filler-heavy openers, and a few grammar slips make the middle harder to follow than it needs to be.

Better phrasing

  • You said

    Before I was thinking it is more lazy, you know, people just stay in pajamas.

    Say it like this

    I used to think it was the lazy option: people at home in pajamas.

  • You said

    So basically now I think it depends of the person.

    Say it like this

    Now I think it depends on the person, and it works for me.

Takeaways

Keep doing

  • You gave a concrete reason for the change: fewer interruptions and a day you can plan.

  • The pajamas line is specific and easy to picture.

Work on next

  • Replace “um” and “like” with a short silent pause.

  • End on your conclusion, then stop.

Structure

  • Missing close
