Singing— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, then add one specific reason and an example. Avoid repetition and incorrect word forms (use 'songs' not 'musics').

Example: Yes, I do. Singing boosts my confidence and helps me relax. For example, I often sing love songs while getting ready in the morning because they put me in a positive mood.

Suggestion: Give a clear, slightly expanded answer with a linking phrase and a specific detail about what you learned (technique or memory). Check grammar (use 'learned' or 'learnt' consistently and 'when I was a child').

Example: Yes. I learned to sing when I was a child; my father taught me basic breathing techniques and how to control my pitch. As a result, I still use those breathing exercises before performances.

Suggestion: Begin with a direct topic sentence and give one clear reason with a brief example. Avoid awkward phrasing and repetition; use linking words like 'because' and 'so'.

Example: I like singing for my family because they enjoy it and it lifts their spirits. For example, I often sing at family gatherings to cheer up my grandparents.

Suggestion: Answer directly then support with a specific reason and one concise example. Avoid repetition and be careful with tense and plural agreement. Use linking words like 'especially' and 'for example'.

Example: Yes, I believe singing can make people happy, especially at events. For example, hearing a familiar love song at a wedding often makes guests nostalgic and brings back pleasant memories.

Suggestion: Provide a concise topic sentence and one specific reason with an example. Remove hesitations and redundant phrases. Use clearer linking words such as 'because' or 'and'.

Example: Yes, I enjoy listening to others sing because it can be inspiring and emotional. For instance, when a friend sings one of my favourite songs, it reminds me of shared experiences and makes me smile.

Suggestion: Start with a direct answer, then briefly explain and give a specific example or contrast. Avoid vague phrases and keep it within 2–3 sentences. Use correct phrasing ('not really my hobby' or 'it's not my hobby').

Example: No, I haven't taken formal singing classes because my main hobby is dancing. However, I often sing at school events and parties, which has helped me gain stage confidence.

× I love singing because it makes me more confident even if my voice is not well enough, but I really love singing.

✓ I love singing because it makes me more confident even if my voice is not good enough; I really love singing.

'Well' is an adverb; when describing the quality of a noun 'voice' (a thing), use the adjective 'good'. Use a semicolon or conjunction to avoid the run-on sentence and improve flow.

× I love to sing love musics.

✓ I love to sing love songs.

'Music' is an uncountable noun and does not take the plural 'musics'. The appropriate countable phrase is 'love songs'.

× Yes, I have learned how to sing when I was a kid.

✓ Yes, I learned how to sing when I was a kid.

The sentence mixes present perfect ('have learned') with a specific past time ('when I was a kid'), which requires simple past 'learned'.

× You just have to breathe in and breathe out.

✓ I just have to breathe in and breathe out.

In context the student is describing their own experience; using 'you' is generic and shifts perspective. Use 'I' to match the speaker.

× I love to sing love songs to my family because it keeps them happy and I also happy to sing because I see them that it makes them happy.

✓ I love to sing love songs to my family because it keeps them happy, and I am also happy to sing because I can see that it makes them happy.

Missing verb 'am' after 'I also'; 'see them that' is incorrect word order—use 'see that' or 'can see that'. Added comma for clarity.

× Yes, I think singing can bring happiness to people, especially in events. If you love to sing love songs, they would appreciate they would appreciate it and they would also bring back the old memories, the old memories that happened to them.

✓ Yes, I think singing can bring happiness to people, especially at events. If you love to sing love songs, people would appreciate it and it would also bring back old memories for them.

'In events' should be 'at events'. Repetition 'they would appreciate they would appreciate' removed. Pronoun reference fixed: use 'people' and 'it' to refer to singing, and 'bring back old memories for them' is clearer.

× Yes, I love to sing oh sorry. I love listening to others singing or to other people singing because it makes me also to be a listener and if they are singing my favorite songs, it makes me happy too, even if not my favorite songs.

✓ Yes, I love listening to others sing. I enjoy listening to other people because it makes me a listener, and if they are singing my favorite songs, it makes me happy too, even if they are not my favorite songs.

Removed extraneous 'to sing oh sorry'. Use 'listening to others sing' or 'listening to other people'; 'makes me also to be a listener' is incorrect—use 'makes me a listener' or 'I enjoy being a listener'. Clarified final clause with 'they are not'.

× It would bring a lot of memories.

✓ It brings back a lot of memories.

In this context the student is stating a general result (habit/general truth), so simple present 'brings' is more appropriate than 'would bring' which implies conditional or future-in-the-past.

× No, I haven't taken a singing class because that is not my hobby.

✓ No, I haven't taken a singing class because it is not my hobby.

'That' is acceptable but 'it' is more natural referring to the noun 'taking a singing class'. This is a minor stylistic change rather than a strict modal error; kept under modal/pro-reference category.

× I really love to dance but I usually sing in events and on parties like before when I was a kid, I used to sing in my school.

✓ I really love to dance but I usually sing at events and at parties. For example, when I was a kid, I used to sing at my school.

'In events' and 'on parties' are incorrect prepositions; use 'at events' and 'at parties'. Also split into two sentences for clarity and use 'at my school'.

× I love to sing love stories.

✓ I love to sing love songs.

'Sing love stories' is unnatural; people sing 'love songs'. 'Love stories' are usually told or read, not sung.
