Work— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and add a clear topic sentence then one or two specific supporting details. Avoid long compound sentences and use linking words to show relation. Also vary vocabulary (e.g., 'gain practical experience' instead of 'give me').

Example: I’m a university student majoring in computer science. I enjoy programming because it helps me gain practical experience and build a portfolio of projects, which should improve my job prospects.

Suggestion: Correct errors (e.g., 'I work' not 'I walk'), keep sentences shorter, and add a linking word when giving examples. Be specific about tasks or class types to show detail.

Example: I work as an English teacher at a language institute in the city centre. I teach adults and young professionals, and for example, I often run IELTS preparation classes to help them improve exam techniques and speaking confidence.

Suggestion: Use correct collocations (e.g., 'supportive environment', 'promotion paths') and avoid redundancy. Provide one concrete example linked with a linking phrase such as 'for instance' or 'for example'.

Example: Yes, it’s a good place to work because it has a supportive environment and clear promotion paths. For instance, the institute provides regular training workshops that help teachers learn new methods and apply for senior roles.

Suggestion: Fix word choices and grammar (e.g., 'comfortable break area', 'which make'), and avoid repeating ideas. Keep to one main reason and one specific example connected by a linking word.

Example: Yes, I like working there because colleagues are friendly and supportive, which makes the atmosphere positive. For example, we have weekly team meetings and a comfortable break area where staff can chat and unwind.

Suggestion: Make a clear topic sentence then give two specific, linked details. Correct grammar and phrasing (e.g., 'strategic roles', 'I also intend to develop'). Avoid vague fragments like the last sentence.

Example: I plan to pursue a master’s degree and relevant professional certifications to strengthen my technical skills. Then I aim to move into a managerial role where I can lead projects and mentor junior staff, and I also intend to develop my leadership skills through on-the-job experience and training.

× I walk as an English teacher at a language institute in the city center, where I teach adult learners and young professionals.

✓ I work as an English teacher at a language institute in the city center, where I teach adult learners and young professionals.

The student used 'walk' instead of 'work', which is a word-choice error causing the sentence to be incorrect. Replace with the correct verb 'work' to match the intended meaning. Suggestion: proofread for similar-sounding verbs and confirm the verb matches the context. Grammar problem type ID:27

× Yes, it is a good place to work because the company offers an supported environment and clear opportunities for professional growth, which keeps employees motivated.

✓ Yes, it is a good place to work because the company offers a supportive environment and clear opportunities for professional growth, which keep employees motivated.

'an supported environment' is incorrect: 'supported' is the past participle and the article 'an' does not fit; use the adjective 'supportive' and no article is needed ('offers a supportive environment' is fine). Also 'which keeps employees' should be 'which keep employees' because 'opportunities' (plural) is the antecedent. Suggestion: match adjective forms and ensure verb agrees with plural subjects. Grammar problem type ID:13

× For example, regular training sessions and transparent promotion parts help staff develop new skills and advance their careers.

✓ For example, regular training sessions and transparent promotion practices help staff develop new skills and advance their careers.

The phrase 'promotion parts' is not a correct collocation. 'Promotion practices' or 'promotion processes' fits better. Use established collocations. Suggestion: choose noun phrases commonly used in workplace contexts. Grammar problem type ID:13

× Yes, I generally like the place where I work because it has a friendly atmosphere and supportive colleagues which makes daily talks more enjoyable.

✓ Yes, I generally like the place where I work because it has a friendly atmosphere and supportive colleagues, which make daily interactions more enjoyable.

The relative clause 'which makes' incorrectly refers to 'colleagues' (plural), so the verb should be 'make'. Also 'daily talks' is awkward; 'daily interactions' is more natural. Suggestion: ensure the relative pronoun refers to the correct antecedent and that verb agrees in number. Grammar problem type ID:27

× For example, we have regular team meetings that encourage collaboration and uncomfortable break area where people can relax, so I feel more protected and valued.

✓ For example, we have regular team meetings that encourage collaboration and a comfortable break area where people can relax, so I feel more supported and valued.

'uncomfortable break area' contradicts the positive context; likely intended 'comfortable'. Also missing article 'a' before 'comfortable break area'. 'Protected' is awkward for workplace feelings; 'supported' is more natural. Suggestion: check word meaning and use appropriate articles before singular countable nouns. Grammar problem type ID:11

× I aim to transition into a managerial role within the next few years where I can lead projects and mentor junior colleagues because I enjoy coordinating teams and contributing to strategic position.

✓ I aim to transition into a managerial role within the next few years where I can lead projects and mentor junior colleagues because I enjoy coordinating teams and contributing to strategic planning.

'Contributing to strategic position' is ungrammatical; the correct noun is 'strategic planning' or 'strategic decisions'. Use the appropriate noun form. Suggestion: use established business nouns and collocations. Grammar problem type ID:13

× Additionally, I in turn to develop more.

✓ Additionally, I intend to develop further.

'I in turn to develop more' is ungrammatical. Likely intended 'I intend to develop more' or 'I plan to develop further'. Use 'intend' or 'plan' with an infinitive, and 'further' is a more natural adverb here than 'more'. Suggestion: use correct verb forms (intend/plan) followed by an infinitive and choose appropriate adverb. Grammar problem type ID:26

× I am currently a student studying computer science at university and I enjoy learning programming and working on projects because they give me practical skills and future career opportunities.

✓ I am currently a student studying computer science at university, and I enjoy learning programming and working on projects because they give me practical skills and future career opportunities.

Mainly needs a comma before 'and' to separate independent clauses. Also 'at university' is acceptable; no change necessary. Suggestion: use punctuation to improve readability. Grammar problem type ID:22

× Examiner: Where do you work?>

✓ Examiner: Where do you work?

The '>' character after the question mark is a typographical error and should be removed. Suggestion: proofread for stray characters. Grammar problem type ID:26
