Chatting— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Try to reduce filler words like 'umm' and 'uh' to make your speech clearer and more natural. Also, structure your answer with a clear topic sentence followed by supporting details, and avoid redundancy. For example, directly state your preference and explain why with specific reasons.

Example: I'm an introvert, so I don't often chat with friends. However, I enjoy talking to them face to face because I can observe their body language and better understand their feelings during our conversations.

Suggestion: Provide a more balanced and detailed answer by using linking words and specific examples. Avoid vague phrases like 'most of times' and improve sentence structure for clarity.

Example: Usually, we chat about university topics, such as our advanced courses. Additionally, sometimes we talk about other friends and share some light gossip to stay connected.

Suggestion: Clarify your preference clearly at the beginning and avoid filler words. Use linking words to connect your ideas and provide specific examples to support your answer.

Example: I prefer chatting with a group of friends because we can enjoy various activities together. For example, we often meet at a coffee shop or park to talk about university topics, play games, and enjoy each other's company.

Suggestion: Avoid filler words and correct minor grammar mistakes. Use linking words like 'however' properly to contrast ideas. Provide a clear topic sentence and specific reasons for your preference.

Example: I prefer to communicate face to face because it helps me observe body language and understand emotions better. However, I also use social media sometimes to stay in touch with friends at university.

Suggestion: Reduce filler words and improve sentence structure for clarity. Use linking words like 'but' effectively to contrast ideas. Provide specific reasons and feelings to enrich your answer.

Example: I usually try to avoid arguing with my friends because I value our relationship and don't want to lose them. However, sometimes disagreements happen when we have different opinions, which can be frustrating.

× I'm an introvert, I don't enjoy UMM chatting with friends very often, but UMM.

✓ I'm an introvert, I don't enjoy chatting with friends very often.

The use of 'UMM' is a filler and should be removed for grammatical correctness and clarity. The phrase 'enjoy chatting' correctly uses the verb + -ing form after 'enjoy'.

× However, when I do talk to them face to face, it's UMM make.

✓ However, when I do talk to them face to face, it makes me happy.

The phrase 'it's UMM make' is incorrect and unclear. The correct form is 'it makes me happy' to express the effect of talking face to face. 'Make' should be conjugated to 'makes' to agree with the singular subject 'it'.

× It makes me happy because I can observe their body language and umm how they feel during our conversation.

✓ It makes me happy because I can observe their body language and how they feel during our conversation.

The filler 'umm' should be removed for clarity. The sentence correctly uses 'observe' followed by noun phrases. No other grammatical errors here.

× Most of times we chat about university or our new advanced courses, but rest of the time we talk about our other friends and gossip about them.

✓ Most of the time we chat about university or our new advanced courses, but the rest of the time we talk about our other friends and gossip about them.

The phrase 'Most of times' is incorrect; the correct expression is 'Most of the time'. Similarly, 'rest of the time' requires the definite article 'the' to be grammatically correct.

× I can't catch up with several friends at once and have go have a great time together.

✓ I can't catch up with several friends at once and have a great time together.

The phrase 'have go have' is incorrect. The correct phrase is 'have a great time'. The verb 'have' should be followed by the article 'a' and the noun 'great time'.

× For example, we often go to the coffee shop or park where we can talk about different topics like university or play games and enjoy each other's company.

✓ For example, we often go to the coffee shop or park where we can talk about different topics like university, play games, and enjoy each other's company.

The sentence is mostly correct, but adding commas improves clarity. No major grammatical errors related to prepositions here.

× I prefer to communicate face to face because it allows me to observe body language and understand the other's pers, the other person's emotion.

✓ I prefer to communicate face to face because it allows me to observe body language and understand the other person's emotions.

The phrase 'the other's pers' is incorrect and unclear. It should be 'the other person's emotions'. Also, 'emotions' is plural to match the context.

× And however, I use uh social media sometimes to stay in touch with friends who in university.

✓ However, I sometimes use social media to stay in touch with friends who are in university.

The phrase 'who in university' is missing the verb 'are'. Also, 'And however' is redundant; 'However' alone is sufficient. The adverb 'sometimes' is better placed before the verb 'use'.

× But sometimes disagreements happens when we have different opinions and it could be very frustrating.

✓ But sometimes disagreements happen when we have different opinions, and it can be very frustrating.

The subject 'disagreements' is plural, so the verb should be 'happen' not 'happens'. Also, 'could be' is changed to 'can be' to better express possibility in this context.
