Part 1

Do you have a favorite teacher?

Score: 48.0

Suggestion: Be clear and grammatically correct; start with a direct topic sentence naming the teacher and role. Use past tense consistently and avoid unclear words (e.g., "average T-shirt" is wrong). Provide 2–3 supporting details with linking words and specific examples of how she helped you. Limit to up to 4 sentences.

Example: My favorite teacher was Miss Somsi, my high-school English teacher. She inspired me to study English by making lessons fun and encouraging speaking practice. For example, we exchanged experiences and practiced conversations in class, which was the first time I felt confident speaking English.

Do you want to be a teacher in the future?

Score: 62.0

Suggestion: Open with a clear direct statement, then give concise reasons and an example. Use natural phrasing and correct verb forms (e.g., "teach people" -> fine; avoid awkward phrases like "exchange a bit of all knowledge"). Use linking words (because, so) to connect ideas and keep sentences natural and short.

Example: Yes, I would like to be a teacher in the future because I enjoy helping people learn and seeing their progress. For example, I want to teach subjects I know well and mentor students so they can build confidence and skills.

Do you have a teacher from your past that you still remember?

Score: 58.0

Suggestion: Start with a direct topic sentence and use correct past tense and subject-verb agreement. Add one specific memory to make the answer more vivid. Use linking words (for example, because) to explain why you remember her.

Example: Yes, I still remember my primary school teacher, Miss Hong, very clearly. She taught me many lessons and always took care of me, which made me excited to go to school every day. For example, she helped me with reading and praised my efforts, so I felt supported.

Are you still in touch with your primary school teachers?

Score: 54.0

Suggestion: Answer directly and give a concise explanation with corrected vocabulary and smoother phrasing (e.g., "moved to Australia"). Avoid filler words and repetition. If possible, mention any future intention about reconnecting to add depth.

Example: No, I'm not in touch with them anymore because I moved to Australia and lost contact with many people from my childhood. I would like to reconnect one day if I find their contact details.

In what way has your favourite teacher helped you?

Score: 66.0

Suggestion: Begin with a topic sentence stating the main way she helped you, then give specific examples and use consistent past tense. Use linking words (because, so, for example) to connect reasons and effects. Avoid repeating words like "always" too many times.

Example: She helped boost my confidence because I was a shy child and she encouraged me to speak in front of others. For example, she invited me to present short talks in class and praised my progress, which helped me improve over time.

Do you like your primary school teachers more than your high school teachers?

Score: 36.0

Suggestion: This answer is confusing with wrong words ("mode", "T-shirt", "streak"). Start with a clear comparison sentence, then give specific reasons using correct vocabulary (e.g., "primary school teachers were kinder and more nurturing, while many high-school teachers were stricter"). Use linking words (because, while) to show contrast and keep it short.

Example: Yes, I prefer my primary school teachers because they were kinder and more nurturing. In contrast, many of my high-school teachers were stricter, so I felt more comfortable and supported in primary school.

Grammar

Incorrect use of articles

× Yes, I have average T-shirt when I was in high school.

Yes, I had an average T-shirt when I was in high school.

The original sentence uses present tense 'have' but refers to the past 'when I was in high school', so past tense 'had' is required (Present vs Past tense issue). Also an indefinite article 'an' is needed before 'average T-shirt' because singular, countable nouns require an article. Suggestion: use 'I had an average T-shirt' to match past time and include the article.

Third person singular issue

× Her name is Miss Somsi, she teach English and make me wanna learn more about the English.

Her name is Miss Somsi; she taught English and made me want to learn more about English.

When referring to a third-person singular subject in the past, verbs must take the past form: 'teach' -> 'taught', 'make' -> 'made'. 'Wanna' is informal speech; use 'want to'. Also omit the definite article before 'English' in 'learn more about English'. Suggestion: use past tense verbs and standard forms: 'she taught' and 'made me want'.

Sentence structure errors

× We exchanged a lot of uh experience and speaking in English that the first time I feel confident to speak English.

We exchanged a lot of experiences and spoke in English, and for the first time I felt confident speaking English.

Multiple issues: 'a lot of experience' should be plural 'a lot of experiences' or 'a lot of experience' without 'a' depending on meaning. The verbs must match past timeframe: use 'spoke' and 'felt' instead of present tense 'feel'. The clause ordering and connectors were unclear; combine with 'and' and use 'for the first time' to express the moment. Use 'confident speaking English' rather than 'to speak' for natural phrasing.

Present tense issue

× Yes, I want to be a teacher in the future.

Yes, I want to be a teacher in the future.

This sentence is grammatically correct. It uses present simple to express a future desire, which is appropriate here. No change necessary.

Incorrect use of gerund/infinitive (Verb + -ing form)

× I like to teach people and I like to see people improve in their skill.

I like teaching people, and I like to see people improve their skills.

Both 'I like to teach' and 'I like teaching' are acceptable; using the gerund 'teaching' sounds more natural for general preferences. 'Skill' should be plural 'skills' if referring to people's abilities in general. Suggestion: use 'teaching' and 'skills'.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× So it would be great if I can teach someone into something that I know well and exchange a bit of all knowledge.

So it would be great if I could teach someone something that I know well and share a bit of my knowledge.

Use 'could' instead of 'can' in hypothetical future conditional with 'would'. 'Teach someone into something' is incorrect; use 'teach someone something' or 'teach someone how to do something'. 'Exchange a bit of all knowledge' is unclear; use 'share a bit of my knowledge'. Suggestion: use conditional 'could' and correct verb patterns: 'teach someone something' and 'share my knowledge'.

Third person singular issue

× She teach me a lot and she always take care of me.

She taught me a lot and she always took care of me.

The context is past, so verbs must be in past tense: 'teach' -> 'taught', 'take' -> 'took'. This is a third-person singular subject in past tense. Suggestion: use past tense verbs to match the time frame.

Incorrect use of modal verb

× No, we're not in touch anymore because I moved to diff, uh, Australia and I didn't talk to anyone back in my country, especially, uh, someone from my childhood.

No, we're not in touch anymore because I moved to Australia and I haven't talked to anyone back in my country, especially anyone from my childhood.

'Diff' is unclear and removed; 'moved to Australia' is fine but following reference to people back home should use present perfect 'haven't talked' to indicate actions that have relevance to the present (no contact up to now). Also replace 'someone from my childhood' with 'anyone from my childhood' for correctness. Suggestion: use present perfect for ongoing states and 'anyone' for negative contexts.

Verb in the -ing form

× She helped me to boost my confidence because when I was young I'm a shy person so she always encouraged me to speak in front of people and always compliment me that I'm doing well and I get better every time.

She helped me to boost my confidence because when I was young I was a shy person, so she always encouraged me to speak in front of people and always complimented me that I was doing well and that I got better every time.

Tense consistency is required: the speaker refers to past events, so 'I'm' -> 'I was', 'compliment' -> 'complimented', 'I'm doing' -> 'I was doing', 'I get' -> 'I got'. Use past tense throughout. Suggestion: keep past tense for past experiences and maintain consistent verb forms.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× Yes, I like my primary school teacher mode and my high school teacher.

Yes, I like my primary school teachers more than my high school teachers.

The original uses 'mode' instead of 'more' (likely a phonetic error) and singular/plural mismatch. Use plural 'teachers' if comparing groups; use 'more than' to show preference. Suggestion: use 'more than' and match pluralization.

Incorrect use of pronouns and articles

× My family school T-shirt, they are kind.

My primary school teachers are kind.

The phrase 'My family school T-shirt' is incorrect and unclear. Likely the speaker meant 'my primary school teachers.' Use a clear noun phrase and correct plural pronoun agreement. Suggestion: replace unclear phrase with 'my primary school teachers' and ensure verb agreement: 'are kind'.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× But my high school T-shirt, most of them are streak.

But most of my high school teachers were strict.

'T-shirt' and 'streak' are incorrect words in context; the intended words are 'teachers' and 'strict'. Also use past tense 'were' if comparing to past primary school teachers. Suggestion: choose correct vocabulary 'teachers' and 'strict'.
