Hi, Rasha,
I think I would really like your dad. You obviously care greatly for him. I can say the same thing about my daddy. The world is much better for good fathers being in it.
Your vocabulary was good in this example speech. I heard “symbolizes,” “vitality,” and “inspire,” for example. You organized it well, and I particularly liked the conclusion you offered. It summed it up nicely.
Here are some grammar notes:
put me in challenges that were eventually for my good – He constantly put me in challenging situations that were for my own good.
he never let me passes one day – he never let me PASS one day
giving me advices in a funny way – “Advice” is a non-count noun, so you can’t say advices. You can, however, say “pieces of advice.”
he is the most caring personality – person. You could say he HAS the most caring personality, however.
He pushes me to all the goodness in my life. – I get your general meaning here, but the word choice is a bit confusing. Maybe you could say, “He pushes me to achieve all the goodness I can in life.”
If my husband do anything bad to me – if my husband DID anything bad to me
Best wishes as you continue to practice!

I'm sorry, but I cannot give you an estimated band score.

i would guess you could score 6.5-7, higher if topics are within your familiar territories
Nothing is impossible! Band score 9 is certainly not.
