Do you like science?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: Be concise and avoid fillers. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Correct basic grammar (e.g., "the teacher is humorous" -> "the teacher has a great sense of humor"). Limit to 2–4 sentences.

× Well, yes, I, I, I love science.
✓ Well, yes, I love science.
Redundant repeated pronouns are not an adjective/adverb error but create disfluent sentence structure; remove repetitions to make sentence fluent and grammatical. Suggestion: avoid filler repetitions and say 'Well, yes, I love science.'
× If you say it's a science class, uh, cause in the science class, uh, the teacher is a humor, has a humor.
✓ If you say it's a science class, the teacher is humorous and has a sense of humor.
Use of 'a humor' is incorrect; 'humorous' is the adjective and 'a sense of humor' is the correct noun phrase. Also remove redundant filler words. Suggestion: use 'humorous' or 'has a sense of humor.'
× So actually, and he always took some interesting science, science history to us and I enjoy it.
✓ He always told us interesting stories about the history of science, and I enjoyed them.
Original sentence has incorrect verb choice 'took' and fragmented structure. Use 'told us' for reporting, plural 'stories' matches 'them', and past tense 'enjoyed' agrees with 'always told' in past context. Suggestion: use clear subject-verb-object order and consistent tense.
× Well, it can dates back to my junior middle school actually in that period of time we I have learned.
✓ It goes back to my junior middle school; at that time I learned science.
Mixes modal 'can' with incorrect verb form 'dates' and present perfect 'have learned' improperly. Use simple present 'goes back' for general reference or simple past 'went back' depending on context; here 'learned' (simple past) fits. Suggestion: choose one tense and keep verb forms consistent.
× I learned the science class and knew some interesting science phenomenon from my science teacher and.
✓ I took science classes and learned about some interesting scientific phenomena from my teacher.
'Learned the science class' is incorrect; use 'took science classes' or 'attended science class.' 'Science phenomenon' should be plural and adjective form 'scientific.' Remove trailing 'and.' Suggestion: use 'learned about' + plural 'phenomena' when referring to multiple items.
× Uh, well, I think his biology, science, uh, 'cause we could, I learned a lot from the, uh, biology class.
✓ Well, I think biology was interesting because I learned a lot from the biology class.
Use of 'his biology' is incorrect pronoun; likely meant 'history' or 'this' but context indicates 'biology.' Replace 'his' with the noun 'biology' and simplify. Suggestion: avoid incorrect possessive pronouns and use clear nouns.
× Uh, our teacher told me some uh, animals, uh, some animals science to us and I found it very interesting.
✓ Our teacher told us about some animals and animal biology, and I found it very interesting.
Incorrect pronoun/object: 'told me ... to us' is inconsistent. Use 'told us about' to indicate information given to the class. 'Animals science' is awkward; use 'animal biology' or 'facts about animals.' Suggestion: use 'told us about' and consistent object pronouns.
× Well, in in my plants science class, our teacher offered us a opportunity to go hiking in the mountains and to in order to help us to know some different kinds of plans in the mountains.
✓ In my plant science class, our teacher offered us an opportunity to go hiking in the mountains to help us learn about different kinds of plants there.
Errors: 'plants science' should be 'plant science'; double 'in' removed; 'a opportunity' should be 'an opportunity' (article error). 'to know' is unnatural; use 'learn about.' 'plans' is wrong word; should be 'plants.' Suggestion: correct noun forms, use 'an' before vowel sound, and prefer 'learn about' for acquiring knowledge.
× Yes, I do uh, I used to like watch the science TV programs like the CCTV number one, I think uh, in that TV program, uh, it, it tells me a lot of things about the animals and the plants.
✓ Yes, I do. I used to like watching science TV programs like CCTV-1; those programs told me a lot about animals and plants.
After 'used to' the verb should be in base form but common pattern 'used to like watching' uses gerund. Also 'CCTV number one' is better as 'CCTV-1.' Tense consistency: 'used to' implies past habit, so use past 'told' not present 'tells.' Suggestion: use 'used to like watching' or 'I like watching' and keep tense consistent.
× No, I don't think so, 'cause 'cause our Chinese students have a lot of stress from the from the major class, like the Chinese maths and the English.
✓ No, I don't think so, because our students have a lot of stress from major subjects like Chinese, math, and English.
'A lot of stress from the from the major class' is redundant and awkward. 'Maths' should be 'math' in standard usage here. 'The English' should be 'English' without article. Suggestion: use 'major subjects' and list subjects without 'the.'
× We have a lot of pressure from them, so we have no chance to visit.
✓ We have a lot of pressure from them, so we have no chance to visit museums.
Original sentence is understandable but vague; 'have no chance to visit' needs object 'museums.' Quantifier 'a lot of pressure' is acceptable. Suggestion: specify what you cannot visit for clarity.
