Part 1

Examiner

Is it easy for you to remember people's names?

Candidate

Absolutely yes, especially for the people that I often meet in a week. So if I meet them just like 2 * a week then I probably won't remember their name. But if I met them like they are in my class then I would definitely know it.

Examiner

How do you remember people's names?

Candidate

I'm not sure about this question, but when I saw people's faces and then I would think about something and then I keep missing them frequently, then I will know their name. Like the teacher teach in a fourth class of 32 students, that is the frequency how they met them.

Examiner

How do you feel when people can't remember your name?

Candidate

I would probably feel sad and I feel like I'm not enough important to them because when I remember their name and they not, that is the important moment that I think that they are like impolite to me and they should mesmerize it.

Examiner

Do you often forget people's names?

Candidate

Definitely not because my cycle of friends is actually really small, like just five to ten people and I have enough memories memories of them and I meet them frequently though so I definitely will remember it and I just can't forget it.

Part 1

Is it easy for you to remember people's names?

Score: 68.0

Suggestion: Answer the question directly and avoid the contradiction between “Absolutely yes” and saying that you may not remember people you meet only twice a week. Use natural expressions such as “twice a week” instead of “2 * a week,” and keep the verb tense consistent: “if I meet them” and “if they are in my class.” Add one clear reason to make the answer more developed.

Example: It is fairly easy for me to remember people’s names, especially if I see them regularly. For example, I usually remember my classmates’ names because I interact with them almost every day. However, I may forget the names of people I meet only once or twice.

How do you remember people's names?

Score: 42.0

Suggestion: Give a clear method instead of beginning with “I’m not sure about this question.” The ideas are difficult to follow because of repeated “then,” unclear wording such as “keep missing them,” and incorrect grammar such as “the teacher teach.” Explain one or two specific techniques, such as repeating the name, associating it with a face, or using it in conversation.

Example: I usually remember people’s names by repeating them when I first meet them. I also try to associate their names with their faces or with something about their personality. For instance, when I meet a new classmate, I use their name several times during our first conversation.

How do you feel when people can't remember your name?

Score: 45.0

Suggestion: Express your feeling and reason more naturally and avoid repeating “I feel.” Use “not important enough” rather than “not enough important,” and use “remember,” not “mesmerize,” in this context. Also, “when they don’t” should be followed by “remember my name,” and the sentence should be divided into shorter, clearer ideas. Be careful not to sound overly judgmental; forgetting a name is not always impolite.

Example: I might feel a little disappointed if someone forgets my name, especially if I have remembered theirs. However, I understand that people can forget names when they meet many new people. I would probably remind them politely rather than assume that they were being rude.

Do you often forget people's names?

Score: 60.0

Suggestion: The answer is direct and includes a reason, but it contains repetition and unnatural expressions. Replace “cycle of friends” with “circle of friends,” “enough memories of them” with “I know them well,” and avoid repeating “definitely” and “remember.” Use the plural “their names” because you are referring to several people, and organize the answer into two or three concise sentences.

Example: No, I rarely forget people’s names because my circle of friends is quite small. I have only about five to ten close friends, and I see them regularly, so I know them very well. I sometimes forget the names of people I meet only once, though.

Grammar

1: Singular and plural issue

× So if I meet them just like 2 * a week then I probably won't remember their name.

✓ So if I meet them only twice a week, I probably won't remember their names.

The plural pronoun their refers to multiple people, so the noun should also be plural: names, not name.

5: Past tense issue

× But if I met them like they are in my class then I would definitely know it.

✓ But if I met people who were in my class, I would definitely remember their names.

The original sentence uses a mixed conditional incorrectly. Since the sentence describes a hypothetical situation in the past, use met and were with would remember.

12: Incorrect use of pronouns

× But if I met them like they are in my class then I would definitely know it.

✓ But if I met people who were in my class, I would definitely remember their names.

It cannot clearly refer to multiple people's names. Use their names to match the plural meaning.

6: Present tense issue

× I'm not sure about this question, but when I saw people's faces and then I would think about something and then I keep missing them frequently, then I will know their name.

✓ I'm not sure about this question, but when I see people's faces, I think about something associated with them, and then I remember their names.

This sentence describes a general method, so use the present simple consistently: see, think, and remember. Avoid switching among saw, would think, keep, and will.

1: Singular and plural issue

× I'm not sure about this question, but when I saw people's faces and then I would think about something and then I keep missing them frequently, then I will know their name.

✓ I'm not sure about this question, but when I see people's faces, I think about something associated with them, and then I remember their names.

People's is plural, so the corresponding possessive noun should be plural: names, not name.

27: Subject-verb agreement errors

× Like the teacher teach in a fourth class of 32 students, that is the frequency how they met them.

✓ For example, a teacher teaches a class of 32 students; that is how frequently the teacher meets them.

A singular subject such as a teacher requires the third-person singular verb teaches, not teach. The subject and verb must agree in number.

2: Third person singular issue

× Like the teacher teach in a fourth class of 32 students, that is the frequency how they met them.

✓ For example, a teacher teaches a class of 32 students; that is how frequently the teacher meets them.

With the singular subject a teacher, the present-tense verbs need -s: teaches and meets.

13: Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× I would probably feel sad and I feel like I'm not enough important to them because when I remember their name and they not, that is the important moment that I think that they are like impolite to me and they should mesmerize it.

✓ I would probably feel sad and feel that I'm not important enough to them because when I remember their names and they don't remember mine, I think they are being impolite to me, and they should memorize my name.

Enough comes after an adjective, so the correct phrase is important enough, not enough important. Also, memorize is the appropriate verb for remembering something; mesmerize has a different meaning.

27: Subject-verb agreement errors

× I would probably feel sad and I feel like I'm not enough important to them because when I remember their name and they not, that is the important moment that I think that they are like impolite to me and they should mesmerize it.

✓ I would probably feel sad and feel that I'm not important enough to them because when I remember their names and they don't remember mine, I think they are being impolite to me, and they should memorize my name.

The clause they not is incomplete. Use the auxiliary do with the plural subject they: they don't remember mine.

12: Incorrect use of pronouns

× I would probably feel sad and I feel like I'm not enough important to them because when I remember their name and they not, that is the important moment that I think that they are like impolite to me and they should mesmerize it.

✓ I would probably feel sad and feel that I'm not important enough to them because when I remember their names and they don't remember mine, I think they are being impolite to me, and they should memorize my name.

Mine correctly refers to the speaker's name and avoids repeating it. The original pronoun it is unclear, and their name should be names because it refers to multiple people.

1: Singular and plural issue

× Definitely not because my cycle of friends is actually really small, like just five to ten people and I have enough memories memories of them and I meet them frequently though so I definitely will remember it and I just can't forget it.

✓ Definitely not, because my group of friends is really small, just five to ten people. I have many memories of them, and I meet them frequently, so I definitely remember their names and can't forget them.

The repeated noun memories memories is an error, and the plural group of friends requires the plural pronoun them when referring to the friends' names.

12: Incorrect use of pronouns

× Definitely not because my cycle of friends is actually really small, like just five to ten people and I have enough memories memories of them and I meet them frequently though so I definitely will remember it and I just can't forget it.

✓ Definitely not, because my group of friends is really small, just five to ten people. I have many memories of them, and I meet them frequently, so I definitely remember their names and can't forget them.

It is singular and unclear because it refers to several people's names. Use their names and them for clear plural references.

6: Present tense issue

× Definitely not because my cycle of friends is actually really small, like just five to ten people and I have enough memories memories of them and I meet them frequently though so I definitely will remember it and I just can't forget it.

✓ Definitely not, because my group of friends is really small, just five to ten people. I have many memories of them, and I meet them frequently, so I definitely remember their names and can't forget them.

The question asks about a regular habit, so the present simple is more suitable: I remember and I can't forget. Will remember suggests a future event rather than a usual behavior.
