Teacher— Part 1 採点レポート

提案: Be more grammatically accurate, concise, and coherent. Start with a clear topic sentence, correct word forms (e.g. ‘favorite’, ‘economics’, ‘patient’ -> ‘patience’ or ‘is patient’), and finish the idea without trailing off. Use one or two supporting details connected with a linking word (e.g. ‘because’ or ‘and’).

例: My favourite teacher is Mr. Callum, who teaches economics. He is patient and uses unique, engaging methods, so I find his lessons very interesting.

提案: Provide a clear, natural reply and avoid unnecessary words. Use correct tense and smoother linking (e.g. ‘because’). Add a brief comment to enrich the answer (e.g. how you felt or whether you tried to contact them).

例: No, I am not. My primary school teacher moved to another city last year, so we lost touch because it became difficult to meet. I tried to contact him once but it was hard to maintain regular contact.

提案: Use clear grammar and structure: state one main way he helped, then give specific supporting details with linking words. Avoid filler sounds and pronoun/verb agreement errors (e.g. ‘helps’ vs ‘helped’, ‘provides’). Be specific about the type of help and an example.

例: He helped me mainly by explaining difficult concepts clearly and giving practical examples. For instance, he set useful exercises for homework and regularly gave feedback, which improved my understanding and confidence.

提案: Make the response more natural and grammatically correct by using appropriate modal/tenses (‘could’, ‘can’, or ‘become’). Start with a direct answer (Yes/No) and add a brief reason with a linking word. Give a short example of what appeals to you.

例: Yes, I would like to be a teacher in the future because I have always been fascinated by teaching. I enjoy explaining ideas to others and helping students develop their skills.

× I have a favorite teacher Mr. Callum, who teaches me economy with patient, unique and also interesting way.

✓ I have a favorite teacher, Mr. Callum, who teaches me economics in a patient, unique, and interesting way.

Use correct noun 'economics' instead of 'economy'; use preposition 'in' with 'way' (teaches me in a ... way); use article/comma after 'teacher'; 'patient' should be the adjective 'patient' modifying 'way' and requires commas in a list. Suggestion: say 'teaches me economics in a patient, unique, and interesting way.'

× I find hard teaching method really interesting and.

✓ I find the difficult teaching method really interesting.

The phrase 'hard teaching method' is ungrammatical: 'hard' should be 'difficult' as an adjective and the noun needs an article 'the' or a determiner. Remove trailing 'and.' Suggestion: 'I find the difficult teaching method really interesting.'

× Actually not. My primary school teacher has transferred in the last year to another city.

✓ Actually not. My primary school teacher transferred to another city last year.

Use simple past 'transferred' with a specific time reference 'last year' instead of present perfect 'has transferred' which is not normally used with a definite past time. Also place time expression 'last year' at the end. Suggestion: 'My primary school teacher transferred to another city last year.'

× That's why I can't keep in touch with him. Close.

✓ That's why I couldn't keep in touch with him.

'Can't keep in touch' conflicts with past context; use past 'couldn't' to match 'transferred last year.' The fragment 'Close.' is unclear and should be removed. Suggestion: 'That's why I couldn't keep in touch with him.'

× My favorite teacher helps me in several ways, particularly in my studies along with uh, encourage me to do homework and also motivate.

✓ My favorite teacher helped me in several ways, particularly with my studies; he encouraged me to do homework and motivated me.

Context refers to past events (primary teacher transferred), so use past tense 'helped', 'encouraged', 'motivated.' Also ensure correct verb forms and subjects: 'he encouraged me' and 'motivated me.' Replace 'in my studies' with 'with my studies.' Suggestion: 'My favorite teacher helped me in several ways, particularly with my studies; he encouraged me to do homework and motivated me.'

× It motivates me a lot in my life and also provide a lot of suggestion.

✓ He motivated me a lot in my life and also provided a lot of suggestions.

Use correct pronoun 'he' to refer to the teacher rather than 'it.' Match past tense 'motivated' and 'provided' to previous sentence. Use plural 'suggestions.' Suggestion: 'He motivated me a lot in my life and also provided many suggestions.'

× It would be great fun if I can do so, because I was always a bit fascinated about being a teacher.

✓ It would be great fun if I could do so, because I have always been a bit fascinated by being a teacher.

When using conditional 'would', use past modal 'could' for ability in hypothetical situations. Use present perfect 'have always been' to express a continuous past-to-present fascination. Use preposition 'by' with 'fascinated.' Suggestion: 'It would be great fun if I could do so, because I have always been a bit fascinated by being a teacher.'
