Politeness— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Your answer communicates the main idea but is long, repetitive and has some grammar issues. Keep it shorter (max 5 sentences), start with a clear topic sentence, and add one or two specific examples. Use past tense consistently ("taught me" not "have taught me"). Add linking words to improve coherence.

Example: My parents taught me to be polite from a young age. For example, they always reminded me to say "please" and "thank you," and they showed me how to help elderly neighbors with their shopping. Because of their example, I learned that small acts of courtesy make daily life smoother for everyone.

Suggestion: Good enthusiasm and clear opinion, but avoid repetition ("really, really") and awkward phrasing ("being kind of a stranger"). Give one specific reason or short example and link ideas with connectors like "because" or "for instance."

Example: Yes, I think being polite is very important because small gestures can have a big impact on someone’s day. For instance, offering help to a stranger who looks lost might prevent them from missing an important appointment, so simple politeness can be quite meaningful.

Suggestion: Your answer gives ideas but is unclear and has grammar issues. Start with a clear topic sentence naming occasions, then give specific examples linked by connectors. Avoid vague phrases like "do the job better."

Example: We should be polite in everyday situations, such as when meeting neighbors, speaking with colleagues, or helping someone cross the road. For example, if you see an elderly neighbor struggling with groceries, politely offering to carry a bag shows respect and kindness.

Suggestion: The answer is understandable but has many grammatical errors and unclear phrases ("held around"). Keep sentences concise, use past simple for past habits, and give one concrete example of an action you did to show politeness.

Example: As a child I often helped my parents around the house by setting the table and washing dishes. At school, I tried to be friendly by inviting new classmates to join games, which helped them feel welcome.

× Growing up, my parents have taught me that being a kind and warm hearted individual is one of the most important fundamentals to have as a human being and taking care of people around you and helping around is a sign of being a good human and a good person.

✓ Growing up, my parents taught me that being a kind and warm-hearted individual is one of the most important fundamentals of being human, and taking care of the people around you and helping them is a sign of being a good person.

The original uses present perfect 'have taught' while referring to a past upbringing; simple past 'taught' is more appropriate for a completed past action (Grammar Problem Type ID: 6 Present tense issue / 5 Past tense issue). 'Warm hearted' should be hyphenated as 'warm-hearted' when used as an adjective before a noun (Grammar Problem Type ID: 13 Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs). 'Fundamentals to have as a human being' is wordy and awkward; 'fundamentals of being human' is clearer. 'Helping around' is incorrect; use 'helping them' or 'helping the people around you' (Grammar Problem Type ID: 11 Incorrect use of prepositions / 13). Use consistent verb forms and clearer noun phrases.

× Being polite is really, really important because we never know how it affects another person's life. But being kind of a stranger, you could be saving their lives and that is really, really important to me because I care about other people deeply.

✓ Being polite is really important because we never know how it will affect another person's life. By being kind to a stranger, you could be saving their life, and that is very important to me because I care deeply about other people.

Use future 'will affect' for general consequences (Grammar Problem Type ID: 7 Future tense issue). 'Being kind of a stranger' is incorrect; correct to 'being kind to a stranger' (Grammar Problem Type ID: 11 Incorrect use of prepositions). 'You could be saving their lives' mismatches number; 'a stranger' is singular so 'their lives' is inconsistent—use 'their life' or rewrite to pluralize the subject. Also reduce repetition 'really, really' to 'really' or 'very' for style (Grammar Problem Type ID: 13).

× Whenever we see people or our neighbors need help, just crossing the road or talking to someone and if you can do the job better, you should just offer them a hand and help them around.

✓ Whenever we see people or our neighbors who need help, whether while crossing the road or talking to someone, if you can do the task better you should offer them a hand and help them.

Sentence structure is unclear and missing connectors (Grammar Problem Type ID: 26 Sentence structure errors). 'Whenever we see people or our neighbors need help' requires a relative clause 'who need help' (Grammar Problem Type ID: 12 Incorrect use of pronouns). 'Just crossing the road or talking to someone' needs 'whether' to show examples. 'Do the job better' is informal; 'do the task better' or 'do it better' is clearer. 'Help them around' is awkward; use 'help them.'

× As a child, I've always held around my parents around the house, whether it be cleaning, cooking and I've also held around my school when it comes to just being warm and kind of my friends.

✓ As a child, I always helped my parents around the house with cleaning and cooking, and I also helped my classmates and friends at school by being warm and kind.

'I've always held around my parents around the house' is ungrammatical: 'held around' is incorrect verb collocation; use 'helped' (Grammar Problem Type ID: 8 Verb + -ing form / 13 Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs). Present perfect 'I've always' is acceptable for life experiences but here a simple past or habitual past 'I always helped' fits childhood context (Grammar Problem Type ID: 5 Past tense issue). 'Whether it be cleaning, cooking' should be 'with cleaning and cooking.' 'Held around my school' is incorrect; use 'helped at school' or 'helped my classmates.' 'Being warm and kind of my friends' is wrong pronoun use and preposition; 'being warm and kind to my friends' is correct (Grammar Problem Type ID: 11 Incorrect use of prepositions / 12 Incorrect use of pronouns).
