Politeness— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more grammatical, concise and organized. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Correct verb forms (learn → learned), use possessive/pronouns correctly, and avoid filler sounds like “uh.” For example, say who taught you, how they modeled politeness, and one result or rule they gave you.

Example: I learned to be polite from my mother. She always spoke kindly and showed me how to use polite phrases like “please” and “thank you,” so I tried to copy her tone and words. As a result, people usually respond to me more warmly, and I was taught that politeness helps solve problems more easily.

Suggestion: Give a clear topic sentence stating your opinion, then support it with specific reasons and one brief example. Use correct grammar (e.g., “speaking politely,” “respectful” → “respectful to others”). Avoid repetition; use linking words like ‘because,’ ‘for example,’ or ‘therefore’ to connect ideas.

Example: Yes, I believe being polite is very important because speaking politely shows respect and makes communication smoother. For example, when I ask for help politely at work or school, people are more willing to assist me; therefore, politeness often leads to better relationships and outcomes.

× I learn speak politely from my mother because she is very uh, speaking politely and kindness uh, and she always influence me to speak politely because my mom said that speak politely everything you achieve easily.

✓ I learned to speak politely from my mother because she always spoke politely and kindly, and she always influenced me to speak politely because my mom said that if you speak politely, you will achieve things more easily.

Errors: verb tense, verb forms, and word choice. 'I learn' should be past 'I learned' because the learning happened in the past. 'learn speak' requires the infinitive 'learned to speak'. 'she is ... speaking politely' is awkward and should be 'she always spoke politely' to match past context. 'kindness' is a noun but an adverb 'kindly' is needed. 'influence' should be past 'influenced'. The clause 'my mom said that speak politely everything you achieve easily' needs a conditional structure and modal 'will' or rephrasing: 'if you speak politely, you will achieve things more easily.' Suggestion: maintain past tense for past events, use correct verb forms (infinitive after learn, adverb forms for manner), and include conjunctions like 'if' and modal verbs for result clauses.

× Yes, I think being polite is very important because speak politely is the main part of daily life because you speak politely and respectful.

✓ Yes, I think being polite is very important because speaking politely is an important part of daily life and shows respect.

Errors: incorrect verb form and adjective/adverb use. 'because speak politely' needs the gerund 'speaking politely' when used as a noun phrase. 'the main part' is exaggerated; 'an important part' is more natural. 'you speak politely and respectful' mixes verb form with adjective; use 'shows respect' or 'are respectful' or 'speak politely and respectfully.' Suggestion: use gerunds for activities (speaking), use adverbs with verbs, or rephrase to 'shows respect.' Ensure consistency in sentence structure.

× The other one speak, speak politely and respectful.

✓ Also, speaking politely makes a difference and shows respect.

Errors: fragmented and unclear sentence structure. 'The other one speak' is ungrammatical; it's a fragment lacking a clear subject and verb. 'speak politely and respectful' again misuses adjective instead of adverb or a noun phrase. Suggestion: combine ideas into a complete sentence using gerund 'speaking' or a full clause: 'Also, speaking politely makes a difference and shows respect.' This fixes the fragment and corrects the adjective/adverb issue.

× So that reason being polite is very important.

✓ For that reason, being polite is very important.

Errors: word order and missing preposition. 'So that reason' is unnatural; use 'For that reason' or 'Therefore'. Also ensure the clause follows with a comma. Suggestion: use standard linking phrases ('For that reason,' 'Therefore,') and maintain correct order: linking phrase + comma + statement.
