Teachers— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be concise, correct grammar, use linking words and specific examples. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific details (what she does and an example). Avoid repetition and fix verb forms and vocabulary (e.g., "supportive", "useful").

Example: My favourite teacher is my college English teacher. She is very supportive and helped me improve my speaking and grammar by giving personalized feedback and weekly speaking drills. For example, she corrected my pronunciation and gave me small homework to practice new vocabulary each day.

Suggestion: Answer directly, give clear reasons and use linking words to make it coherent. Avoid unnecessary remarks about others. Correct grammar ("I'm not that patient", "I'm not very interested"). Provide one specific reason or example why teaching isn't for you.

Example: No, I don't want to be a teacher in the future. I don't feel patient enough to manage a classroom, and I haven't found a subject I would be passionate about teaching. However, I respect teachers because they shape students' futures.

Suggestion: Be specific about who the teacher was and give concrete memories. Use correct tenses and linking words (e.g., "for example", "because"). Keep to 2–4 sentences and avoid repeating the same idea.

Example: Yes, I still remember my class teacher from high school. He organized our daily class duties and gave practical career advice, for example helping me choose university courses and prepare my application. His guidance made the transition to university much easier.

Suggestion: Good content and specificity. Improve grammar and cohesion: use correct plural/singular forms and linking words. Make sentences shorter and clearer, and correct collocations ("exchange updates", "stay in touch via social media").

Example: Yes, I'm still in touch with a couple of my primary school teachers via social media and occasional messages. For example, my class teacher and I exchange updates about our families and teaching tips, which helps us maintain a warm, supportive relationship.

Suggestion: State the main point clearly then give specific ways she helped, using linking words like "for example". Correct grammar and word choice ("wide range of vocabulary", "does not scold me"). Avoid filler words ("umm").

Example: My favourite teacher is my college English teacher because she helped me gain confidence in speaking. For example, she gave me vocabulary lists, practiced conversations with me, and provided gentle corrections instead of scolding, which encouraged me to speak more.

Suggestion: Give a direct comparison sentence then support with specific reasons and examples. Fix grammar ("I have more memories of my high school teachers", "they gave me guidance about university choices"). Use linking words ("however", "because").

Example: I like both, but I have stronger memories of my high school teachers because they gave me important guidance about university choices. For example, my high school teachers helped me choose subjects and prepare personal statements, which was very helpful.

× she always supportive to me

✓ she is always supportive of me

Missing linking verb and wrong preposition. 'Supportive' is an adjective and needs a form of 'to be' before it ('she is always supportive'). Also use preposition 'of' with 'supportive' not 'to'. Improve by including the correct auxiliary verb and preposition: 'she is always supportive of me.'

× and also teach us a lot of anger useful skills such as the grammar and the speaking skills

✓ and also teaches us many useful skills, such as grammar and speaking skills

Word order and word choice errors: 'anger useful' is incorrect and should be 'many useful' or 'a lot of useful'. Subject-verb agreement also applies here (teacher = singular) so use 'teaches'. Omit the definite article before uncountable 'grammar' and avoid 'the' before 'speaking skills'.

× I'm not really confident in speaking English but ** *** always support and give me guidelines a lot

✓ I'm not really confident in speaking English but she always supports me and gives me a lot of guidance

Subject is third person singular ('she') so verbs need -s: 'supports' and 'gives'. 'Guidelines a lot' is awkward; use 'a lot of guidance' or 'many guidelines'. Also include the pronoun 'she' if missing. Use natural collocation: 'gives me a lot of guidance.'

× there are many friends of my friends that want to become a teacher in the future

✓ there are many friends of mine who want to become teachers in the future

Incorrect possessive phrase and agreement: 'friends of my friends' is awkward if meaning 'my friends' friends'; likely intended 'friends of mine' or 'my friends'. Also 'a teacher' should be plural 'teachers' to agree with plural subject 'many friends'. Use 'who' for people instead of 'that.'

× And I also think teacher is a very good career pathway and also they contribute to

✓ I also think teaching is a very good career pathway because teachers make valuable contributions

Missing article and unclear reference: 'teacher is' should be 'teaching is' when referring to the profession. The clause 'they contribute to' is incomplete and needs an object; rephrase to 'teachers make valuable contributions.' Ensure sentence is complete and coherent.

× I would like to talk about my class teacher and my colleague

✓ I would like to talk about my class teacher and colleague

Redundant coordination: 'my class teacher and my colleague' implies two people; if referring to the same person, use 'my class teacher and colleague' or simply 'my class teacher.' Ensure pronoun possession is consistent.

× He is my class teacher and he is responsible for the duties, our daily duties such as the class duties and also give us many advice on the career development

✓ He is my class teacher and he is responsible for our daily duties, such as classroom tasks, and also gives us much advice on career development

Mix of verb forms and agreement: after 'he is responsible for' list nouns not 'the duties, our daily duties'. Use 'gives' for third person singular. 'Many advice' is incorrect because 'advice' is uncountable; use 'much advice' or 'a lot of advice.' Clarify 'class duties' to 'classroom tasks.'

× when we get into the university, he also give a lot of guidelines for us

✓ when we got into the university, he also gave us a lot of guidance

Tense and agreement: context refers to past events ('from past that you still remember'), so use past tense 'got' and 'gave.' Also 'give' must be 'gave' for third person singular in past. 'Guidelines for us' is better as 'guidance' or 'gave us a lot of guidance.'

× mainly through the social media or occasional message

✓ mainly through social media or occasional messages

Article and count agreement: 'the social media' is wrong; use 'social media' (uncountable). 'Occasional message' should be plural 'occasional messages' or 'an occasional message.' Keep parallel plural forms.

× For example, my class teacher and I exchange update about our family also teaching tips so which helped me to maintain a warm supportive connection with her

✓ For example, my class teacher and I exchange updates about our families and teaching tips, which helps me maintain a warm, supportive connection with her

Tense and number agreement: use present tense 'exchange' (if ongoing) with plural 'updates' and 'families' (if both have families). The relative clause should match tense: if it is a general truth use 'which helps.' Remove unnecessary 'so' and fix punctuation. Add commas and hyphen for 'warm, supportive.'

× she helped me a lot because I'm not really confident in speaking English and I'm I do not have a lot of wide range of vocabulary

✓ she helped me a lot because I wasn't really confident speaking English and I did not have a wide range of vocabulary

Tense consistency: refer to past assistance so use past tense 'wasn't' and 'did not have.' Redundant 'I'm I' is an error. 'A lot of wide range' is incorrect: use 'a wide range of vocabulary' or 'a lot of vocabulary' but not both.

× she is always supportive and also she will never scold me because umm my English was bad

✓ she was always supportive and never scolded me because my English was poor

Tense consistency: discuss past behavior so use past tense 'was' and 'scolded.' Word choice: use 'poor' rather than 'bad' for more natural phrasing. Remove filler 'umm.'

× I like both my primary school teacher and my high school teacher, but I will have more memories of my high school teachers

✓ I like both my primary school teachers and my high school teachers, but I have more memories of my high school teachers

Number agreement: 'teacher' should be plural to match 'both' and 'teachers.' Tense: 'will have' suggests future but context is general/past memories—use present 'have.' Ensure plurality is consistent.

× because they really give a lot of guidelines and advice for me, especially when I get before I get into the university

✓ because they really gave me a lot of guidance and advice, especially before I entered university

Tense and word order: use past tense 'gave' if referring to past. Remove duplicate 'when I get before I get.' Use 'entered university' or 'entered the university' depending on variety; 'university' without 'the' is natural in many contexts. Use 'guidance' for uncountable noun.

× They teach me how to make a decision on what subject exercises

✓ They taught me how to decide which subjects to choose

Verb tense and preposition: use past 'taught' for past events. 'Make a decision on' is wordy; use 'decide' or 'make a decision about.' 'What subject exercises' is unclear—likely 'which subjects to choose.' Clear, idiomatic phrasing improves comprehension.
