× Yes, my favorite teacher is an English teacher.
✓ Yes, my favorite teacher is an English teacher.
No change needed; sentence correctly uses singular form 'teacher' to refer to one person.
× He teaches me about English interpreting.
✓ He teaches me English interpreting.
Use of 'about' is unnecessary here; 'teach someone something' is the correct verb pattern. Removing 'about' results in 'teaches me English interpreting' which is more natural.
× I like the way he teaches me and he's very patient.
✓ I like the way he teaches me, and he is very patient.
Original sentence is mostly correct but 'he's' is a contraction; expanding to 'he is' improves formality. Also add a comma before 'and' to separate independent clauses.
× For example, when I come across a difficulty about often or.
✓ For example, when I came across a difficulty with whether to use 'often' or not, he helped me.
Original fragment is incomplete and ungrammatical. Use past tense 'came' to match narrative, add preposition 'with' and clarify the choice 'whether to use ... or not' to complete the idea.
× No, I haven't lose their contacts.
✓ No, I haven't kept their contact information.
'Haven't lose' is wrong: after 'have' use past participle 'lost' or better 'haven't kept'. Also 'their contacts' is awkward; use 'their contact information' for clarity and correctness.
× When I graduated from primary school, I didn't keep in touch with this teacher because I graduated in 1990s when the communication tools are not advanced as they today.
✓ When I graduated from primary school, I didn't keep in touch with this teacher because I graduated in the 1990s, when communication tools were not as advanced as they are today.
Use 'the 1990s' with article and plural decade form; use past tense 'were' to match 'graduated' and add 'as' before 'advanced'. Insert 'they are' to complete the comparison. Also remove extra 'the' before 'communication tools'.
× So.
✓ So, I lost contact with him.
One-word fragment 'So.' is incomplete. Provide a full sentence that links to the previous idea, e.g., 'So, I lost contact with him.' Use past tense to maintain consistency.
× I think his patience most moved me on.
✓ I think his patience moved me the most.
The adverb phrase 'the most' should follow the verb phrase; 'moved me on' is unnatural here. Use simple past 'moved' to describe a past influence and place 'the most' in the correct position.
× For example, when I struggled with some problems with the interpreting, he patiently explained them clearly until I understand.
✓ For example, when I struggled with some problems in interpreting, he patiently explained them clearly until I understood.
Use 'in interpreting' instead of 'with the interpreting'. Maintain past tense consistency: 'struggled', 'explained', and 'understood'. Avoid mixing present tense 'understand' with past events.
× And I really wish something I really appreciate.
✓ And I truly appreciate that.
Original sentence is ungrammatical and redundant. Replace with concise expression 'I truly appreciate that' to convey gratitude clearly.
× Yes, absolutely.
✓ Yes, absolutely.
No grammatical change needed; response is appropriate to the question.
× Under the strong influence of my favorite teacher, I want to be a teacher in the future.
✓ Under the strong influence of my favorite teacher, I want to become a teacher in the future.
Use 'become a teacher' rather than 'be a teacher' to indicate career aspiration; both are possible, but 'become' is more natural in this context.
× I want to teach students like the way he teaches me, and I want to impart not not only knowledge, but the attitude of teaching to my students.
✓ I want to teach students the way he taught me, and I want to impart not only knowledge but also the right attitude toward teaching to my students.
Adjust tense to past 'taught' to match earlier references; fix double 'not not' to 'not only' and add 'but also'. 'The attitude of teaching' is awkward; use 'the right attitude toward teaching'. Remove extra commas and improve word order.
