Hobby— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give two or three brief, specific details using linking words. Avoid repetition and unclear words (e.g., “expe”). Use correct verb forms and articles.

Example: I have several hobbies. Firstly, I love dancing and often post videos of my performances online. Secondly, I enjoy reading non-fiction books because they help me learn new skills and ideas. Finally, I like cooking and experimenting with simple recipes at home.

Suggestion: Answer directly, avoid repeating the same idea, and correct tense and article use. Add one specific detail about your experience and use a linking word to explain the effect it had on you.

Example: Yes, I did. As a child I took Kathak classes, which taught me rhythm and discipline. Because of those lessons, dancing became my favourite activity and it helped me relax after a busy day.

Suggestion: Be concise and fix grammatical errors and repetition. Use correct collocations (e.g., “feel anxious”), and structure the reply with a topic sentence plus one or two specific examples of when you dance. Keep it to 2–3 sentences.

Example: Yes, I have danced since childhood and I still dance regularly. For example, I dance whenever I feel anxious because it calms me, and I also dance when I’m happy as a way to celebrate.

Suggestion: Be clearer about comparisons and correct grammar (subject-verb agreement and pronouns). Use linking words to compare your hobbies with family members’ and give one concrete example to illustrate differences.

Example: Not really — my family members have different interests. For instance, some cousins prefer studying and others practise yoga, while I usually prefer solitary activities like cooking or dancing alone to enjoy my own space.

× Yes I have since childhood.

✓ Yes, I have had them since childhood.

The student is describing a hobby that started in the past and continues to the present, so the present perfect tense 'have had' is appropriate. Also 'hobby' is countable and 'them' (or 'one') should match; here plural 'them' works if referring to hobbies. Add a comma after 'Yes' for natural speech punctuation. Suggestion: Use present perfect for actions or states that began in the past and continue now (have/has + past participle).

× I love to dance and I really like to post it.

✓ I love to dance and I really like to post videos of it.

The pronoun 'it' is unclear and 'post' needs an object; adding 'videos of it' clarifies the meaning. Use a noun after 'post' when referring to sharing content online. Suggestion: Specify the object when using verbs like 'post' (post photos, post videos, post about it).

× And my second hobby is I like to reading books.

✓ My second hobby is reading books.

After 'is' we use a noun or gerund phrase; 'I like to reading' mixes structures. Use the gerund 'reading' directly: 'My second hobby is reading books.' Alternatively: 'I like to read books.' Suggestion: Choose either 'My hobby is reading' or 'I like to read.'

× I really like to know expe about experience and more things because I want to be educated.

✓ I really like to learn about new experiences and other things because I want to be educated.

The phrase 'know expe about experience' is incorrect and unclear. Use 'learn about' and 'new experiences and other things' for clarity. 'Learn' is the correct verb for gaining knowledge or experience. Suggestion: Use 'learn about' when talking about gaining knowledge or experience and avoid redundant words like 'experience' repeated incorrectly.

× And my third hobby is cooking.

✓ My third hobby is cooking.

Remove the leading 'And' for a cleaner sentence start in speech; grammatically the sentence is correct, but simplifying improves fluency. Suggestion: Begin sentences directly when listing hobbies: 'My third hobby is cooking.'

× Yes I have.

✓ Yes, I do.

In response to 'Did you have any hobbies when you were a child?' the past tense auxiliary 'did' was used in the question, so the expected short answer uses past tense 'Yes, I did.' However the student likely meant 'Yes, I have' earlier; here within the past-context answer 'Yes, I did' is correct. If they mean 'I have (hobbies now)', use 'Yes, I do.' Suggestion: Match short answers to the question tense: use 'Yes, I did' for past questions and 'Yes, I do' for present ones.

× In my childhood I loved to dance and I also joined the classes at Indian classical dance which is called Kathak.

✓ In my childhood I loved to dance and I also joined Indian classical dance classes called Kathak.

Use 'joined' with the object 'classes' directly; rearranging yields a natural English word order. 'At Indian classical dance' is incorrect preposition use; 'Indian classical dance classes' is correct. Suggestion: Use 'joined X classes' or 'took X classes' and place the noun phrase 'called Kathak' after the noun it describes.

× I love to dance in my childhood and that was my most favorite thing to do and that give me a relaxation after the whole.

✓ I loved to dance in my childhood; it was my favorite thing to do and it gave me relaxation afterwards.

The sentence mixes present and past tenses. Use past tense 'loved' and 'gave' to match the time frame. 'Most favorite' is redundant; use 'favorite.' 'After the whole' is unclear; 'afterwards' or 'after a long day' clarifies the meaning. Suggestion: Keep verb tenses consistent for past time frames and avoid redundant modifiers like 'most favorite.' Replace unclear phrases with specific time references.

× Till now I love to dance whenever I feel stressed or anxiety anxious I I really like to dance and whenever I feel good and I'm happy then also I like to dance and that makes me happy and I enjoy it after doing a little bit of.

✓ Even now I love to dance whenever I feel stressed or anxious; I also dance when I feel happy, because it makes me feel good and I enjoy it even after dancing for a little while.

Use 'anxious' instead of 'anxiety' (noun vs adjective). Remove repeated words and fix run-on sentence by adding punctuation and clearer clauses. 'After doing a little bit of' is incomplete; specify 'after dancing for a little while.' Suggestion: Use adjectives to describe feelings (anxious), avoid repetitions, and complete time/amount phrases like 'for a little while.'

× They have different interests.

✓ They have different interests.

This sentence is grammatically correct; no change needed. It clearly states that family members have different interests. Suggestion: None.

× I mean I am kind of a person who like to enjoy in their own space like some of my cousins.

✓ I mean I am the kind of person who likes to enjoy their own space, like some of my cousins do.

Subject-verb agreement: 'person who likes' uses third-person singular 'likes.' Also 'enjoy in their own space' is incorrect preposition use; say 'enjoy their own space.' Add 'do' at the end for parallelism with 'like some of my cousins.' Suggestion: Use 'the kind of person who likes' and ensure verb agrees with 'person.' Use 'their own space' without 'in.'

× They like to study and some of them like to do yoga.

✓ Some of them like to study and others like to do yoga.

Original meaning is fine but reorder for clarity and add 'others' to contrast groups. Grammar is acceptable; suggestion improves coherence. Suggestion: Use contrast words like 'some' and 'others' for clarity.

× But my kind of thing is to do everything alone and enjoy your own solitude space.

✓ But I prefer to do things alone and enjoy my own solitary space.

'My kind of thing is to do everything alone' is awkward and unidiomatic. Use 'I prefer to do things alone' and match pronouns: 'my own' not 'your own.' 'Solitude space' is not natural; 'solitary space' or 'time alone' is better. Suggestion: Use 'I prefer' to express personal preference and match possessive pronouns to the subject.
