Memory— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and fix grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence about your current ability, then briefly give a specific example and contrast with now using linking words. Avoid repetition and long relative clauses.

Example: I used to be good at memorising things: in high school I memorised the entire periodic table in order, which helped me a lot in chemistry. However, as I became busier with work and studies, my memory worsened, so now I rely on notes and phone reminders.

Suggestion: Give one specific example and correct grammar. Begin with a direct answer (yes/no), then illustrate with a concrete incident and the habit you formed as a result. Use linking words to show cause and effect.

Example: Yes, I have. For example, I once forgot to submit an assignment on time, so since then I always set calendar reminders and write brief notes when someone asks me to do something to avoid missing instructions.

Suggestion: Focus on daily practical things rather than lengthy religious routine (unless relevant). Provide a clear topic sentence listing key daily items to remember, then give one brief detail. Keep to 2–4 sentences and use linking words for coherence.

Example: In daily life I need to remember practical things like appointments, my to-do list and taking medication. For example, every morning I review my schedule and set alarms so I don't miss meetings or important tasks.

Suggestion: Good structure and specific methods; improve accuracy and fluency by correcting minor errors and adding a linking word to connect methods. Optionally give a short example of when these methods helped.

Example: Lately I carry a small notebook to jot down tasks and I set phone reminders and alerts. For example, when I had to prepare documents for a meeting, my notes and alarms ensured I submitted everything on time.

× Using things when I was in high school, I memorized all the elements of the periodic table in order which may which helped me a lot in chemistry classes.

✓ When I was in high school, I memorized all the elements of the periodic table in order, which helped me a lot in chemistry classes.

The original sentence has an incorrect introductory phrase 'Using things when I was in high school' and a redundant 'which may which helped.' The correct structure places the time clause first: 'When I was in high school,' and removes the extra words, leaving a non-restrictive relative clause 'which helped me a lot.' Suggestion: start with a clear time phrase and avoid duplicated relative words.

× However, as I've grown older and become busier, my memory has gotten weaker, so I now rely on notes and reminders more often.

✓ However, as I've grown older and become busier, my memory has gotten weaker, so I now rely on notes and reminders more often.

This sentence is grammatically correct; tense usage (present perfect for change over time and present simple for habitual action) is appropriate. No correction needed.

× I forgot many important things nowadays, so that's why I always leave a reminders if someone told me to do this kind of thing so that I will never forget their instructions to me.

✓ I forget many important things nowadays, so I always leave a reminder if someone tells me to do something, so that I will never forget their instructions to me.

Mixing past tense 'I forgot' with 'nowadays' is inconsistent; use present simple 'I forget' for current habitual actions. 'a reminders' is wrong singular/plural; use 'a reminder' or 'reminders'. 'If someone told me' should be present 'if someone tells me' to match habitual context. 'this kind of thing' is vague; 'something' is more natural. Suggestion: keep tenses consistent for habits and fix article/number agreement.

× I always leave a reminders if someone told me to do this kind of thing so that I will never forget their instructions to me.

✓ I always leave a reminder if someone tells me to do something so that I will never forget their instructions.

'a reminders' mixes singular article with plural noun; correct to 'a reminder' (singular) or 'reminders' (no 'a'). Also 'their instructions to me' is wordy; 'their instructions' is sufficient. Suggestion: match articles and nouns and simplify redundant phrases.

× Every morning when I wake up, I thank the Lord for another day and ask for guidance.

✓ Every morning when I wake up, I thank the Lord for another day and ask for guidance.

This sentence is correct: present simple is appropriate for habitual actions. No change needed.

× I always tell myself to do what makes me happy and not to worry about things that I cannot control.

✓ I always tell myself to do what makes me happy and not to worry about things that I cannot control.

Sentence is grammatically correct. Use of modal 'cannot' is appropriate. No correction needed.

× I always tell the Lord that I already surrender everything to Him and just ask for His forgiveness and guidance.

✓ I always tell the Lord that I have already surrendered everything to Him and just ask for His forgiveness and guidance.

Mixing 'already' with simple present 'surrender' is awkward; 'have already surrendered' (present perfect) correctly expresses a completed action relevant now. Suggestion: use present perfect for actions completed before now when combined with 'already.'

× Recently I've been quiet forgetful so I always carry a small notebook to jot down important things.

✓ Recently I've been quite forgetful, so I always carry a small notebook to jot down important things.

'quiet' is a misspelling of 'quite' (adverb). Comma needed before 'so' joining two clauses. Present perfect continuous 'I've been' is appropriate for a recent state. Suggestion: correct spelling and add punctuation.

× I also set reminders and alerts to my phone for task and instruction so I don't miss them.

✓ I also set reminders and alerts on my phone for tasks and instructions so I don't miss them.

Use 'on my phone' not 'to my phone.' 'task and instruction' should be plural and parallel: 'tasks and instructions.' This makes the sentence natural. Suggestion: use 'on' for devices and ensure noun agreement and parallelism.
