List— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Try to avoid minor grammatical errors and improve coherence by using linking words. For example, instead of 'Beside that', use 'Besides that' or 'Moreover'. Also, try to make your sentences more natural and concise.

Example: Yes, I usually use my phone to make a shopping list. This helps me ensure I get everything I need and prevents me from buying things on impulse. Moreover, it helps me stay within my budget.

Suggestion: Avoid redundancy and improve sentence structure. For example, 'list down everything that I need to finish it' can be simplified to 'list everything I need to finish'. Also, use linking words to connect ideas smoothly.

Example: Yes, at the start of the day, I list everything I need to finish on a piece of paper. This method is extremely helpful because it allows me to track both completed and pending tasks.

Suggestion: Work on grammar and clarity. For example, say 'In my perspective, the reason is that they might think listing everything down is a waste of time.' Also, use linking words like 'Furthermore' to connect ideas and avoid awkward phrasing like 'there are confidence'.

Example: In my perspective, the reason is that some people think making lists is a waste of time. Furthermore, they are confident they can complete their tasks on time without tracking them.

Suggestion: Improve sentence structure and use correct expressions. For example, say 'It actually depends on the things or events I want to list.' Also, avoid repeating 'list it down' and use linking words like 'for instance' and 'however' properly.

Example: It actually depends on what I want to list. For instance, if it's shopping items, I prefer using my phone. However, for my study tasks, I choose to write them on paper.

× Yes, I usually will use my phone to make a list before I shop.

✓ Yes, I usually use my phone to make a list before I shop.

The use of 'will' with 'usually' is incorrect because 'usually' indicates a habitual action and does not require 'will'. In English (Malaysia), habitual actions are expressed using the simple present tense without 'will'.

× Beside that, using a list can make me spend within my budget.

✓ Besides that, using a list can help me spend within my budget.

The correct preposition is 'besides' to mean 'in addition to'. Also, 'make me spend' is awkward; 'help me spend' is more natural. In English (Malaysia), 'besides' is commonly used to add information, and 'help' is preferred to express assistance.

× Yes, usually at the start of the day I will list down everything that I need to finish it before the end of the day on a piece of paper.

✓ Yes, usually at the start of the day I list down everything that I need to finish before the end of the day on a piece of paper.

The phrase 'need to finish it' is incorrect because 'it' is unnecessary and causes redundancy. The verb 'list down' is acceptable but 'list' alone is sufficient. In English (Malaysia), omitting unnecessary pronouns improves clarity.

× And I think this is extremely helpful for me as I can track things that I haven't done and also things that I have finished.

✓ And I think this is extremely helpful for me as I can track things that I haven't done and also things that I have finished.

No correction needed here as the sentence is grammatically correct.

× In my perspective, the reason of it is because they might think listing everything down is a waste of time.

✓ From my perspective, the reason is that they might think listing everything down is a waste of time.

The phrase 'In my perspective' is incorrect; the correct preposition is 'From my perspective'. Also, 'the reason of it is because' is redundant; 'the reason is that' is preferred. In English (Malaysia), these expressions are commonly used for clarity.

× Also there are confidence that they can finish everything on time without keep tracking of it.

✓ Also, they are confident that they can finish everything on time without keeping track of it.

'There are confidence' is incorrect; the subject should be 'they are confident'. Also, 'without keep tracking' should be 'without keeping track'. In English (Malaysia), subject-verb agreement and gerund forms are important for correctness.

× It's actually depends on the things or events that I want to list it down.

✓ It actually depends on the things or events that I want to list down.

'It's actually depends' is incorrect; 'it' and 'depends' cannot be used together like this. The correct form is 'It actually depends'. Also, 'list it down' is redundant; 'list down' suffices. In English (Malaysia), subject-verb agreement and avoiding redundant pronouns are important.

× For example, if it's about buying things, then I would prefer listing it down on my phone.

✓ For example, if it's about buying things, then I would prefer listing them down on my phone.

The pronoun 'it' is incorrect when referring to plural 'things'; 'them' should be used. In English (Malaysia), pronouns must agree in number with their antecedents.

× However, if it's about my study list, then I would choose to list it on paper.

✓ However, if it's about my study list, then I would choose to list it on paper.

No correction needed here as the sentence is grammatically correct.
