Rules— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Focus on grammatical accuracy and conciseness. Begin with a clear topic sentence, avoid filler words (e.g., "umm"), correct verb agreement ("were implemented"), and use parallel structure in lists ("wearing a specific color of pants" and "not wearing makeup"). Keep it within 2–3 sentences.

Example: Yes, there are several rules at my school. The board implemented a uniform policy, so students must wear pants of a specific color, and makeup is not allowed; students who break these rules may be punished.

Suggestion: Improve subject-verb agreement and avoid unnecessary words. Use linking phrases to compare the two cases (e.g., "on the one hand", "on the other hand"). Be specific about what "beneficial" means (safety, discipline, learning) and avoid typographical or unclear words like "the IT".

Example: It depends on the rules. On the one hand, rules that promote safety and good study habits would benefit students; on the other hand, overly controlling rules that limit expression could make students resentful and less cooperative.

Suggestion: Use past tense consistently when talking about past events and tighten sentences. Replace vague phrases with specific examples of dedication. Limit to 2–3 sentences and use linking words for clarity.

Example: Yes, I had a very dedicated teacher who was both our homeroom and Islamic teacher. She always prepared creative lessons to make learning enjoyable, and once she even cried when students were in trouble because she genuinely cared about us.

Suggestion: Fix subject-verb agreement and reduce repetition. Start with a clear position and give one or two specific reasons. Use linking words like "because" to explain why rules are appropriate and mention the importance of explaining rules.

Example: I prefer the current number of rules because they give teachers enough authority while allowing students sufficient freedom. However, it is important to explain the reasons for each rule so students understand and follow them.

Suggestion: Be concise and correct grammar (pronouns, articles). Avoid awkward phrasing like "become more of a good person" — use "become better behaved". Use one or two supporting details and link them clearly.

Example: Yes, I know a very strict teacher who only teaches boys. My friends say he enforces rules firmly, but he does so to help students become better behaved and responsible.

Suggestion: Be direct and avoid repetition. State your preference clearly, use grammatical structures correctly ("I never planned"), and provide one concise reason with an example. Correct awkward phrases like "designate designated area."

Example: I don't plan to become a teacher, and I wouldn't want to teach in a rule-free school because lack of rules would make classroom management chaotic; for example, without clear boundaries, students may talk over lessons and disturb others.

× Yes, there are several rules that was implemented by the school board of directors and such as umm, having a specific color of pants that you are allowed to wear or no wearing makeup at all or else you would be punished for it.

✓ Yes, there are several rules that were implemented by the school board of directors, such as having a specific color of pants that you are allowed to wear, or not wearing makeup at all; otherwise you would be punished.

The phrase 'that was implemented' refers to 'rules' (plural), so the verb should be plural past form 'were implemented' (Grammar Problem Type ID 9: past participle used with auxiliary 'were'). 'Such as' should follow a comma and 'no wearing' is incorrect; use 'not wearing'. 'Or else' is informal; 'otherwise' is clearer. Use commas to separate clauses for readability.

× It depends on what rules are implemented. If the rules are beneficial and is mandatory for the students, then of course the IT would definitely benefit the students.

✓ It depends on what rules are implemented. If the rules are beneficial and are mandatory for the students, then of course they would definitely benefit the students.

'Rules' is plural, so the adjective phrase needs plural agreement: 'are mandatory' not 'is mandatory' (Grammar Problem Type ID 6). 'The IT' is incorrect and unclear; replace with 'they' referring to the rules.

× But if the rules are made to control the students and not give them much of A benefit, then no, it would make the students more stubborn.

✓ But if the rules are made to control the students and do not give them much benefit, then no, they would make the students more stubborn.

'Much of A benefit' is ungrammatical; use 'much benefit' or 'any benefit'. Also maintain pronoun agreement: 'they would make' referring to rules (Grammar Problem Type ID 22). Replace 'it' with 'they'.

× Yes I do have one who is our homeroom teacher and also our Islamic teacher.

✓ Yes, I have one who is our homeroom teacher and also our Islamic teacher.

'Do have' is not wrong but informal; simpler present tense 'I have' is more natural here. No auxiliary 'do' needed (Grammar Problem Type ID 6). Also add comma after 'Yes' for punctuation clarity.

× She goes all out on finding ways of how to teach students to make it fun and beneficial for us and even if we did something bad or caused a great problem she once cried for us.

✓ She goes all out to find ways to teach students and make lessons fun and beneficial for us, and once she cried for us even when we did something wrong or caused a serious problem.

Use infinitive 'to find' rather than 'on finding' for this collocation and 'ways to teach' is clearer than 'ways of how to teach' (Grammar Problem Type ID 9). 'Did something bad' -> 'did something wrong' and reorder clause for clarity.

× I think the rules that are implemented in my school right now gives us the perfect amount of control for the teachers and also the right amount of freedom for the students.

✓ I think the rules that are implemented in my school right now give us the perfect amount of control for the teachers and the right amount of freedom for the students.

'Rules' is plural, so the verb should be 'give' not 'gives' (Grammar Problem Type ID 27). Also streamline wording by removing redundant 'also'.

× I think there shouldn't be less or more rules other than this, but the more important aspect is that we should explain these rules.

✓ I think there should not be fewer or more rules than these, but the more important aspect is that we should explain these rules.

'Less' is incorrect with countable 'rules'; use 'fewer' (Grammar Problem Type ID 4: modal/negation usage and 14 quantifier). Also 'other than this' -> 'than these' to refer to plural 'rules'.

× I do, but unfortunately he doesn't teach girls, he only teaches boys.

✓ I do, but unfortunately he doesn't teach girls; he only teaches boys.

Grammatically the sentence is acceptable; adjusted punctuation for clarity. 'Doesn't' is correct for third person singular (Grammar Problem Type ID 2). No change to verb form needed; semicolon improves flow.

× He applies the rules to the to his students, but this is generally for the students own cause so that they would become more of a good person and behave properly.

✓ He applies the rules to his students, but this is generally for the students' own good so that they will become better people and behave properly.

Remove duplicate 'to the to'. Use possessive 'students'' and 'own good' instead of 'own cause'. 'Become more of a good person' is ungrammatical; use 'become better people'. Use 'will' rather than 'would' for likely outcome (Grammar Problem Type ID 11).

× Personally, I never thought of myself becoming a teacher and I never plan on becoming one.

✓ Personally, I never thought of myself as becoming a teacher and I don't plan on becoming one.

Mix of past and present: 'never thought' (past) and 'never plan' (present) is inconsistent. Use 'I don't plan' to match present intention or change first clause to 'have never thought' to match present perfect. Also 'thought of myself as becoming' is the usual phrasing (Grammar Problem Type ID 5).

× Moreover, I don't think that any teacher should teach in a rule free school because it will create disaster and it would be hard for the teachers to teach students and control how they behave.

✓ Moreover, I don't think that any teacher should teach in a rule-free school because it would create disaster and it would be hard for teachers to teach students and control their behavior.

Hyphenate 'rule-free'. Maintain consistent conditional mood: use 'would' for hypothetical consequences rather than mixing 'will' and 'would' (Grammar Problem Type ID 4). Use 'their behavior' for clarity rather than 'how they behave'.

× Students should have their designate designated area.

✓ Students should have their designated area.

Redundant words 'designate designated' are incorrect; use 'designated' alone as an adjective (Grammar Problem Type ID 13). Also include possessive 'their' already present so 'designated area' suffices.
