Are you good at memorising things?
Puntuación: 45.0Sugerencia: Give a direct short answer but expand with a brief reason and an example. Keep it natural, avoid repeating the same idea, and use one linking word to connect the reason. Also correct small spelling/variety (memorising vs memorizing is fine—use consistent spelling).
Ejemplo: Not really. I find it hard to memorise details because I usually rely on notes and reminders, so I rarely try to store information in my head.
Have you ever forgotten something important?
Puntuación: 40.0Sugerencia: Answer the question directly and then provide a specific example of something important you forgot, using a linking word to show consequence or reason. Avoid absolute phrases like “always” unless true; be more precise.
Ejemplo: Yes, once I missed an important meeting because I forgot the time; as a result, I learned to set multiple alarms on my phone.
What do you need to remember in your daily life?
Puntuación: 30.0Sugerencia: Respond with a clear topic sentence listing typical daily things you must remember (e.g., appointments, tasks, keys). Use linking words and give coherent, specific details—avoid unrelated or contradictory statements (coffee in the shower is confusing). Keep to under five sentences.
Ejemplo: I need to remember everyday tasks such as my work schedule, appointments and to bring my keys; for instance, I always remind myself to prepare my laptop in the morning so I can start work on time.
How do you remember important things?
Puntuación: 55.0Sugerencia: This is a good direct answer. Improve by briefly explaining which app or method you use and how it helps, using a linking word to add clarity. Provide a concrete example of a reminder you set.
Ejemplo: I save important items in a reminders app on my phone and set alerts; for example, I create a calendar event with an alarm for dentist appointments so I don't forget them.
× Yes, I do always forget because I have a bad memory.
✓ Yes, I always forget because I have a bad memory.
The auxiliary 'do' is unnecessary with the simple present when using 'always' for habitual actions. Using 'do' here is unidiomatic; remove 'do' so the sentence follows correct present simple form 'I always forget'. Suggestion: Use 'I always forget' for habitual actions in present simple.
× I do remember that when I wake up in the morning, I have my coffee in the shower.
✓ I remember that when I wake up in the morning, I have my coffee in the shower.
As above, the auxiliary 'do' is unnecessary in affirmative present simple statements. Use the plain present 'I remember' for correct and natural phrasing. Suggestion: Omit 'do' in positive present-tense sentences: 'I remember...'.
× In the afternoon. I work on the beach with friends.
✓ In the afternoon, I work on the beach with friends.
The original uses a period to separate two parts that form one sentence, creating a sentence fragment. Combine them with a comma (or make the first fragment a full clause) so the time phrase correctly modifies the main clause. Suggestion: Attach the time phrase to the main clause: 'In the afternoon, I work...'.
× I do remember them in my app inside my phone.
✓ I remember them in an app on my phone.
Again, 'do' is unnecessary in affirmative present simple. Also 'my app inside my phone' is awkward; use 'an app on my phone' for natural English. 'On my phone' is the common prepositional phrase. Suggestion: Say 'I remember them in an app on my phone.'.
