Part 1

How did you learn to be polite as a child?

Score: 54.0

Suggestion: Your answer communicates the main idea but has several language and coherence issues. Improve by using a clear topic sentence, correcting grammatical errors, and adding one specific example to support your point. Use linking words (for example, because, so) and keep the response to no more than 3–4 sentences. Also replace awkward words (e.g., “imbibe” → “picked up”; “whom I am looking at” → “who were around me”).

Example: I learned to be polite mainly from my parents who modeled respectful behaviour. For example, they always said “please” and “thank you,” and I copied their gestures and tone of voice. Because of that early example, politeness became a habit rather than something I was formally taught.

Do you think being polite is very important?

Score: 48.0

Suggestion: The response shows agreement but is unclear and contains many word choice and grammar errors. State your main opinion clearly in one sentence, then give two concise, specific reasons with linking words. Avoid vague phrases like “this brightness” and repetitive connectors. Clarify the professional context (e.g., “as a healthcare worker”) and finish sentences fully.

Example: Yes, I think politeness is very important in everyday life. For instance, as a healthcare worker, being polite helps me build trust with patients and makes difficult conversations easier. In addition, politeness prevents misunderstandings and ensures respectful interactions with strangers.

Grammar

Verb tense / form and subject-verb agreement (Present tense and Subject-verb agreement)

× I think I imbibe the gesture and body language from my parents or the people whom I am looking at.

✓ I think I imbibe gestures and body language from my parents or from the people I look at.

Errors: plural/singular and verb form issues. 'gesture' should be plural 'gestures' to match general habits (Grammar Problem Type 1). 'the people whom I am looking at' is wordy and uses a continuous form unnecessarily; use 'the people I look at' for a habitual action (Grammar Problem Type 6). Also add 'from' before 'the people' for correct preposition use (Grammar Problem Type 11). Suggestion: use plural for countable habitual items, use simple present for habitual actions, and prefer concise relative clauses.

Article error / Singular and plural issue

× So there were not particular lesson or syllabus to teach me how to be polite and have patience.

✓ So there were no particular lessons or syllabus to teach me how to be polite and patient.

Errors: 'were not' with 'particular lesson' is wrong combination; use 'there were no' (Grammar Problem Type 3 and 22). 'lesson' should be plural 'lessons' to agree with 'syllabus' or use singular consistently (Grammar Problem Type 1). 'have patience' is better expressed as the adjective 'patient' after 'be' (Grammar Problem Type 13). Suggestion: use 'there were no' for absence in past, match plural nouns, and use correct adjective form 'patient'.

Sentence structure / Verb form

× I just learn by myself by.

✓ I just learned by myself.

Errors: tense and extra word. 'learn' should be past 'learned' to match 'So there were' context (Grammar Problem Type 5 and 6). The final 'by' is extraneous, creating sentence fragment (Grammar Problem Type 26 and 23). Suggestion: remove the extra 'by' and use past simple for completed childhood learning.

Word choice / Verb form

× Definitely yes because it just contiguous when we use this brightness especially in our communication or talking to some strangers.

✓ Definitely yes, because it is contagious when we use this kindness, especially in our communication or when talking to strangers.

Errors: 'contiguous' is incorrect word; the intended word is 'contagious' meaning spreads (Grammar Problem Type 13). 'this brightness' is awkward; 'this kindness' fits meaning (Grammar Problem Type 13). Use 'it is' rather than 'it just contiguous' for correct verb and linking verb (Grammar Problem Type 6). Also use 'when talking to strangers' or 'when we talk to strangers' for clarity. Suggestion: choose correct vocabulary and include proper linking verb.

Article and preposition / Word choice

× Moreover, in my healthcare professional, it is highly beneficial because it helps me to concentrate on the content and conversation.

✓ Moreover, in my healthcare profession, it is highly beneficial because it helps me concentrate on the content of the conversation.

Errors: 'healthcare professional' is a person, but context requires 'healthcare profession' (Grammar Problem Type 13). 'helps me to concentrate' is acceptable, but 'helps me concentrate' is more natural (Grammar Problem Type 6). 'on the content and conversation' is unclear; use 'on the content of the conversation' with correct preposition and noun structure (Grammar Problem Type 11). Suggestion: use precise nouns and correct prepositions for clarity.

Sentence fragment / Omission

× Moreover, I don't appear rude and.

✓ Moreover, I don't appear rude.

Errors: sentence ends with 'and' creating a fragment and missing object or clause (Grammar Problem Type 26 and 23). Remove the trailing 'and' to complete the sentence. Suggestion: ensure sentences are complete and do not end with conjunctions unless followed by another clause.
