Hobby— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and natural. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid filler words, maintain correct verb forms and pluralization, and use linking words to list hobbies. Add a brief reason to support why photography is your favorite.

Example: I have several hobbies: photography, listening to music and watching films. My favourite is photography because I enjoy capturing people’s expressions; I often take portraits to practice posing and lighting.

Suggestion: Give a direct topic sentence, reduce repetition and filler words, and use past tense consistently. Use a linking phrase to compare past and present hobbies and give a brief specific detail about the childhood hobby.

Example: Yes. My hobbies as a child were different from now; I enjoyed dancing and singing. For example, I took ballet classes and performed in school shows, which helped build my confidence.

Suggestion: Answer directly and clearly. Use correct grammar for present perfect when describing a hobby you have had since childhood. State reasons with specific examples and use linking words to connect ideas.

Example: Yes, I have had a hobby of taking photographs since childhood. It relaxes me and helps me see everyday things from new angles; for instance, I like photographing street scenes to notice small details I would otherwise miss.

Suggestion: Be concise and logical. Provide a clear topic sentence, use linking words to explain when you watch movies together, and correct phrasing for routines. Give a specific example of movies you watch or a habit to make it more detailed.

Example: Yes, we share a hobby of watching films. After school or work we often watch movies together; for example, my father loves action films so we usually choose an action movie on weekends and discuss the plot afterwards.

× I have several hobbies including taking a photo and listening to music and watching a movie.

✓ I have several hobbies, including taking photos, listening to music, and watching movies.

The phrase 'taking a photo' should use the gerund plural 'taking photos' to match the general hobby. Use parallel gerund forms for a list (taking, listening, watching) and plural nouns for general activities ('photos', 'movies'). Also add commas for clarity.

× And the most I, uh, favorite about is taking a photo.

✓ What I like most is taking photos.

The original has incorrect article usage and awkward word order. Replace 'the most I favorite about is' with 'What I like most is' and use 'taking photos' (general activity) rather than 'taking a photo'.

× Yeah, and I, I often take the portraits.

✓ Yeah, I often take portraits.

The definite article 'the' is unnecessary before 'portraits' when speaking generally. Also remove the repeated pronoun 'I, I' to avoid redundancy.

× So when I was child, I uh, enjoy dancing and I'm also really interested in, uh, singing.

✓ So when I was a child, I enjoyed dancing and I was also really interested in singing.

Tense consistency is required: describing past habits uses past tense 'enjoyed' and 'was interested'. Also include the article 'a' before 'child' and remove filler words and unnecessary commas.

× I have a my hobby, uh taking photo photo taking a photo is the hobby that I have had since my childhood uh, because it's umm, it's, it gives me uh relax and the take things T look at things differently.

✓ Taking photos is a hobby I have had since my childhood because it helps me relax and makes me look at things differently.

Remove redundant words ('a my hobby'), use plural 'photos', and simplify phrasing. Use 'helps me relax' rather than 'gives me relax' for correct collocation. Use 'makes me look at things differently' for clear meaning.

× Do you have the same hobbies as your family members?

✓ Do you have the same hobbies as your family members?

This sentence is already correct; no change needed.

× My family and I really enjoy watching a movie after uh come back. Our schools and umm works and especially my father.

✓ My family and I really enjoy watching movies after we come back from school or work, and especially my father enjoys action movies.

Use plural 'movies' for general habit and correct the clause 'after we come back from school or work' for clarity and correct word order. Combine sentence fragments and specify 'father enjoys action movies' to complete thought.

× I also too.

✓ So do I.

'I also too' is redundant. Use 'So do I' or 'Me too' to agree with the previous statement. 'So do I' fits formally.
