Um, we can support. Currently, I'm working as well as studying. So you can consider me a student. I'm currently working as an intern in the communication team of Asha, and simultaneously I'm studying. Oh, I'm studying for my... it is soon to happen. So, yes.
The response moves from saying you work and study to identifying as a student, then adds your internship and current studies. That gives a relevant sequence, but “Um, we can support” does not clearly connect to the question, and the ending trails off at “my...”. Practise a 20-second version: answer directly, give the internship detail, then finish with what you are studying without adding details you cannot confirm.
You use relevant vocabulary such as “working as an intern” and “studying,” which makes your situation understandable. However, “we can support” is unclear in this context, and “it is soon to happen” is an awkward way to describe something approaching. Practise a few natural phrases for this topic, such as “I’m doing both,” “I work as an intern,” and “something is coming up soon.”
The answer includes clear basic structures, including “I’m working as well as studying” and “I’m studying for my…”. The unfinished phrase and the following “it is soon to happen” make the final thought incomplete and difficult to follow. Combine the work and study details in one complete sentence, then use a separate complete sentence to say that something is coming up soon.
This is a text-only response, so pronunciation cannot be assessed from the supplied material; this practice guide is not an assessment of a recording. Practise word stress in “currently” and “communication,” and group the answer into thought groups: “I’m working as well as studying” / “I’m an intern in Asha’s communication team.” Record yourself saying it, then check that each phrase is clear and complete, without judging your accent against a particular model.
