Part 1

Do you often feel tired?

Score: 68.0

Suggestion: Be more concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, correct 'imbalance hormone' to 'a hormonal imbalance', and avoid fillers like 'uh'. Limit to up to 5 sentences and add one specific detail about symptoms or treatment using a linking word.

Example: Yes, I often feel tired because I have a hormonal imbalance. For example, my doctor has adjusted my medication and I visit the hospital regularly for tests. I hope these treatments will help me recover soon.

When would you feel tired?

Score: 64.0

Suggestion: Give a clear topic sentence that directly answers timing, use linking words for clarity, and replace vague phrases. Avoid contradictions like 'when I wake up after eating' then 'any time of the day'—be specific about typical times and one reason.

Example: I usually feel tired throughout the day, especially in the morning after I wake up and after meals. Because my energy levels drop quickly, it makes daily life stressful and harder to concentrate.

What do you do when you feel tired?

Score: 78.0

Suggestion: Start with a direct topic sentence and use linking words to organize actions (e.g., 'in the morning' and 'in the afternoon'). Be slightly more specific about duration or intensity to make the answer concrete.

Example: When I feel tired, I try to be active: in the morning I go for a 15-minute walk to get sunlight and fresh air, and in the afternoon I do a short 10-minute dumbbell routine to boost my energy.

Grammar

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× I currently have an imbalance hormone and I'm going back and forth to the hospital to have it checked and I'm hoping that uh, I would recover soon.

✓ I currently have a hormonal imbalance and I'm going back and forth to the hospital to have it checked and I'm hoping that I will recover soon.

The phrase 'imbalance hormone' uses incorrect word order and form; 'hormonal imbalance' is the correct adjective+noun collocation. Also 'uh, I would recover soon' is awkward for expressing hope about the future; use 'I will recover soon' to indicate a likely future outcome. Suggestion: use the adjective 'hormonal' before 'imbalance' and use 'will' for a straightforward future hope. (Grammar Problem Type ID: 13)

Present tense issue

× I honestly feel tired all the time eventually when I wake up after eating.

✓ I honestly feel tired all the time, especially after I wake up from eating.

The adverb 'eventually' is incorrect here because it means 'in the end' rather than indicating frequency or timing. 'Especially' or 'particularly' fits the intended meaning. Also 'wake up after eating' is unusual; 'wake up from eating' or better 'after I eat' clarifies timing. Suggestion: replace 'eventually' with 'especially' and use 'after I eat' or 'after I wake up from sleeping' depending on meaning. (Grammar Problem Type ID: 6)

Sentence structure errors

× Like any time of the day I feel tired and don't really like this kind of life right now.

✓ At any time of the day I feel tired, and I don't really like this kind of life right now.

Starting with 'Like' is informal and creates a fragment; use 'At any time of the day' to form a complete phrase. Also add the subject 'I' before 'don't' to ensure clarity. Suggestion: avoid sentence fragments and informal fillers in formal responses. (Grammar Problem Type ID: 26)

Incorrect use of pronouns

× It's stressing me out.

✓ It is stressing me out.

Contraction 'It's' is acceptable in speech, but for clarity in written correction expand to 'It is'. This change is stylistic rather than grammatical; meaning remains the same. Suggestion: In formal contexts prefer full forms. (Grammar Problem Type ID: 12)

Sentence structure errors

× What I usually do when I feel tired, especially in the morning, I go outside and go for a quick walk, get some sunlight for vitamin D and in the afternoon I use my recently bought dumbbells for quick exercise.

✓ What I usually do when I feel tired, especially in the morning, is go outside for a quick walk to get some sunlight for vitamin D; in the afternoon I use the dumbbells I recently bought for a short workout.

The original sentence is a run-on and lacks the verb 'is' after the introductory clause 'What I usually do...'. Also word order 'recently bought dumbbells' is acceptable but 'the dumbbells I recently bought' is clearer. Use parallel structure and proper punctuation to separate morning and afternoon activities. Suggestion: include 'is' after 'What I usually do...' and restructure for parallelism and clarity. (Grammar Problem Type ID: 26)
