Teachers— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Improve accuracy and coherence: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid filler words (uh), correct grammar (use past tense consistently and proper pronouns), and keep to 2–4 sentences. Add a specific example of what she did to help build your confidence and use linking words (for example, because, so).

Example: My favourite teacher was my high school English teacher, Mrs Wong. She made English interesting by organizing small reading groups and praising my progress, which helped build my confidence. Because she was kind and helpful, I still remember her support clearly.

Suggestion: Clarify your career goal and give a direct answer first. Avoid contradiction and improve sentence structure: state whether you want to be a teacher, then explain reasons with linking words (for example, because, although). Use more precise vocabulary (e.g., 'academic researcher' instead of 'standing of knowledge').

Example: Im not sure I will be a teacher because I plan to become a university researcher. However, I could teach occasionally because my father is a teacher and I enjoy explaining ideas. Teaching appeals to me because it helps others learn and deepen their understanding.

Suggestion: Be specific and correct grammar: begin with a clear topic sentence, avoid vague phrases like 'that's a lot', correct verb forms and determiners ('respected us', 'taught me'), and give a concrete example of what she taught beyond knowledge. Use linking words (for example, not only... but also).

Example: I remember my primary school English teacher most of all. She respected us and treated us like young adults, which boosted our confidence. Not only did she teach grammar and vocabulary, but she also taught us how to speak up in class and work together.

Suggestion: Make tense consistent and natural: use present simple for ongoing actions and past/simple for visits. Avoid awkward phrasing like 'borrow some fruit'. Provide a concise reason and a clear routine, using linking words (so, because).

Example: Yes, Im still in touch with my primary school English teacher because Im grateful for her help. I usually visit her during summer or winter holidays and bring flowers or fruit as a small gift.

Suggestion: Be precise and correct word choice: use 'overcome difficulties in speaking and listening' (not singing), correct verb forms ('spared her time', 'missed lunch'). Start with a topic sentence, then give a specific example of her help and result, using linking words (for example, so, therefore).

Example: She helped me overcome my difficulties in speaking and listening. For example, she spent extra time after class to practice listening exercises with me and even missed her lunch to help, so I improved quickly.

Suggestion: Answer directly with a clear reason and correct grammar: avoid awkward phrases like 'treat us more not really than as a person'. Use linking words (because, so) and provide one concrete contrast (for example, kindness vs strictness) and a short supporting detail. Keep within 2–4 sentences.

Example: I prefer my primary school teacher because she was kind and treated us as individuals. In contrast, high school teachers were stricter and often focused only on exam results, so I felt less supported.

× It is Mrs. Wong who let us have interest of English and build my confidence on the English study as she is kind and helpful.

✓ It was Mrs Wong who made us interested in English and built my confidence in studying English because she was kind and helpful.

Use 'interested in' rather than 'interest of' and 'made us interested in' expresses cause. Use 'built my confidence in studying English' instead of 'build my confidence on the English study'. Verb tense should be past ('was', 'made', 'built') to match the past reference to a specific teacher. Use 'because' for reason instead of 'as' which can be ambiguous.

× Uh, I will remember she her help.

✓ Uh, I will remember her help.

The object pronoun 'her' should be used; 'she' is a subject pronoun and 'she her' is redundant. Use 'I will remember her help' or better 'I will always remember her help' for clarity.

× Probably because my dad is a high school teacher and I want to be a university researcher in the future, so maybe that can be teacher.

✓ Probably not, because my dad is a high school teacher and I want to be a university researcher in the future, so I probably will not be a teacher.

Original sentence has mixed ideas and redundant connectors ('because' and 'so maybe'). Clarify intent: if the student does not want to be a teacher, say 'probably not' then give reason. Also 'can be teacher' is ungrammatical; use 'be a teacher' or 'become a teacher'. Maintain tense consistency.

× I think teacher is a really interesting job and can help us have a better standing of knowledge.

✓ I think teaching is a really interesting job and can help us gain a better understanding of knowledge.

'Teacher' as a job is better expressed as 'teaching' or 'a teacher' with article. 'Standing of knowledge' is incorrect; use 'understanding' and 'gain a better understanding of' is the correct collocation.

× Yeah, that's a lot, but one I remember the most is my primary school English teacher.

✓ Yeah, there are a lot, but the one I remember most is my primary school English teacher.

Use 'there are a lot' to refer to many teachers. 'One I remember the most' is awkward; 'the one I remember most' or 'the one I remember the most' is preferred. Keep 'most' placement after the verb 'remember'.

× She's a very kind person and respect the our children and treat us like a teenager and even adults.

✓ She's a very kind person who respected us as children and treated us like teenagers and even like adults.

Use relative clause 'who respected' and correct pronoun/object usage: 'respected us as children'. Match tense to past ('respected', 'treated'). Use plural 'teenagers'. Remove extraneous 'the' before 'our children'.

× She teach me a lot, not only the knowledge.

✓ She taught me a lot, not only academic knowledge.

Subject-verb agreement and tense: with third person singular in past, use 'taught' not 'teach'. Clarify 'not only the knowledge' to 'not only academic knowledge' for natural phrasing.

× Yes, as I mentioned above, my English teacher in my primary school is very kind person and I'm grateful for her.

✓ Yes, as I mentioned above, my primary school English teacher was a very kind person and I'm grateful to her.

Include the article 'a very kind person'. Use past tense 'was' if referring to past teacher. Use 'grateful to her' or 'grateful for her help' — 'grateful for her' is less natural.

× So in the summer or winter vacation I will borrow some fruit or flowers and to visit her.

✓ So in the summer or winter vacations I would bring some fruit or flowers and visit her.

'Borrow' is wrong collocation; one 'bring' or 'take' gifts. Remove infinitive marker 'to' before 'visit' when using 'and' to join verbs. Use plural 'vacations' or 'the summer or winter vacation' and conditional/modal 'would' is more natural for habitual visits.

× First, in the perspective of studying, she helped me to overtake my difficulties in singing and listening.

✓ First, from the perspective of studying, she helped me overcome my difficulties in speaking and listening.

Use 'from the perspective of' not 'in the perspective of'. 'Helped me to overcome' or 'helped me overcome' is correct; 'overtake' is incorrect here. Likely meant 'speaking' not 'singing' given context.

× She spare her time for me to practice my listening and even not having the lunch, so I'm very grateful.

✓ She spared her time to help me practice my listening and even skipped lunch for me, so I'm very grateful.

Use past tense 'spared'. Correct structure 'spared her time to help me' and 'skipped lunch' instead of 'not having the lunch'. Omit unnecessary 'the' before 'lunch'.

× For me, I think I prefer my primary school teacher because my high school is very strict and the teachers are under the pressure, so they treat us more not really than as a person.

✓ For me, I prefer my primary school teacher because my high school was very strict and the teachers were under a lot of pressure, so they did not treat us as individuals.

Sentence is awkward and ungrammatical. Adjust tense to past 'was', 'were'. 'Under the pressure' -> 'under a lot of pressure'. 'Treat us more not really than as a person' is incorrect; better 'did not treat us as individuals' or 'did not treat us like people'. Simplify and clarify.
