Name— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Answer the question directly with a clear topic sentence, such as “It wasn’t easy for me at first.” Correct the unnatural phrase “quite telling you for me” to “quite difficult for me,” and use “names become” rather than “names becomes.” Also, use “their names” when referring to multiple students. Your supporting details are relevant, but make the answer more concise and avoid repeating “matching.”

Ejemplo: It wasn’t easy for me to remember people’s names at first, especially because I live in a boarding school where students come from all over the world. I had to learn their names and associate them with their faces. However, after two years of practice, it has become much easier because I repeat people’s names and connect them with distinctive features.

Sugerencia: Your answer is well organized and includes a clear method and explanation. However, “when I grade them” is not appropriate in this context; say “when I greet them” or “when I speak to them.” You could also use a more natural phrase such as “associate a name with a distinctive feature.”

Ejemplo: I usually associate a person’s name with a distinctive feature, such as their hairstyle, voice, or accent. As a result, their name often comes to mind the next time I see them. I also try to use their name when I greet them because repeating it helps reinforce it in my memory and sounds sincere.

Sugerencia: This is a direct, natural, and well-developed answer. The contrast introduced by “although” is effective, and the explanation is specific. To make it slightly more precise, replace “It happens more often when people look very similar” with “It happens more often when people meet many similar-looking individuals,” since the current wording could suggest that the people themselves are forgetting because they look alike.

Ejemplo: I feel a little embarrassed and disappointed when someone can’t remember my name, although I try not to take it personally. I can understand because I sometimes forget names too, especially after meeting many people in a short period. Therefore, I usually remind them politely and move on.

Sugerencia: The answer directly addresses the question and gives a clear before-and-after comparison. Correct “remember their name” to “remember their names,” and add a full stop at the end. You could improve the final sentence by using “more easily” rather than “more quickly,” and by adding a linking phrase such as “This is because.”

Ejemplo: I used to forget people’s names quite often when I first came to Canada. However, after living here for two years and practicing regularly, I’ve definitely improved. I can now pronounce people’s names correctly and remember them more easily because I make an effort to repeat their names and use them in conversations.

× It was quite telling you for me to remember English names because I live in a boarding school and new students arrive from all over the world every year.

✓ It was quite challenging for me to remember English names because I live in a boarding school and new students arrive from all over the world every year.

Telling does not have the intended meaning in this sentence. Challenging is the correct adjective because remembering many unfamiliar names is difficult. Do not use the verb tell in the -ing form to describe something that is difficult.

× I have to memorize their name and match them with their faces.

✓ I have to memorize their names and match them with their faces.

The pronoun their refers to multiple students, so name should be plural: names. Use plural nouns when referring to more than one person or thing.

× However, after two years living here, remembering names become much easier because I practice repeating the names and matching them with distinctive features.

✓ However, after two years of living here, remembering names becomes much easier because I practice repeating the names and matching them with distinctive features.

The subject of the sentence is the singular gerund phrase remembering names. Therefore, the verb must be becomes, not become. A singular subject takes a singular verb in the present tense.

× I can now pronounce their names correctly and remember their name more quickly because I made an effort to repeat them and use them in conversations.

✓ I can now pronounce their names correctly and remember their names more quickly because I made an effort to repeat them and use them in conversations.

Their refers to multiple people's names, so the noun should consistently be plural: names. Keep the noun number consistent with the pronoun and the surrounding context.
