Hobby— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more concise and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, avoid repetition (e.g., ‘on the weekends’ twice), and use correct subject-verb forms and pronouns. Add a linking word when giving an additional detail. Also vary vocabulary slightly (e.g., ‘I enjoy sketching’).

Ejemplo: I do. My main hobbies are painting, crafting and sketching. On weekends my siblings and I often go to the park to play basketball, which helps me relax and stay active.

Sugerencia: Correct tense and unclear phrase (‘20s sketching’) — use past tense for childhood and remove unclear parts. Keep answers within 3–4 sentences and use linking words (for example, ‘because’, ‘so’) to connect reasons. Give one or two specific details about what you learned or enjoyed.

Ejemplo: Yes. I enjoyed sketching and crafting as a child. My parents enrolled me in art classes every weekend, and I loved them because they taught me techniques and let me express my ideas freely on paper and canvas.

Sugerencia: Use correct tense and more natural phrasing: say you have liked or you have been interested since childhood. Give a brief supporting detail about how the hobby continued or changed over time using a linking word (e.g., ‘so’, ‘and’).

Ejemplo: Yes, I have enjoyed painting and crafting since childhood. Over the years I have improved my techniques, and now I often try new materials and styles to keep learning.

Sugerencia: Make the answer grammatically correct and cohesive: start with a clear topic sentence, use linking words such as ‘for example’ and avoid sentence fragments. Be specific about the father’s hobby and fix punctuation. Keep it to 2–3 sentences.

Ejemplo: No, we have different hobbies. For example, my mother enjoys gardening and collecting different types of flowers, while my father collects silver rings and beaded jewelry.

× Yes I do have hobbies.

✓ Yes, I do have hobbies.

Missing comma after introductory 'Yes'. This is punctuation rather than grammar category but improves clarity; keep tense and auxiliary correct.

× I like to do painting, crafting and sketching on the weekends.

✓ I like painting, crafting, and sketching on the weekends.

When using verbs of preference with activities, the gerund form (painting) is preferred to 'to do painting'. Also add serial comma for clarity; 'on the weekends' is acceptable.

× Me and my siblings, we go to a park and play basketball on every weekend.

✓ My siblings and I go to the park and play basketball every weekend.

Use subject pronoun 'I' not 'Me' in subject position and put 'I' after others for politeness. Remove redundant pronoun 'we'. Use 'the park' if referring to a specific local park and use 'every weekend' (no 'on') or 'on weekends'.

× Yes, I like 20s sketching and crafting.

✓ Yes, I liked sketching and crafting in my twenties.

Question asked about childhood (past), so past tense 'liked' is required. '20s sketching' is unclear; likely means 'in my twenties' but because context is childhood change to past simple 'liked' and clarify timing; if meant age 20s that's not childhood.

× My parents sent me to arts classes every weekend and I enjoy it so much because I can use my imagination however I want and I can convey my imagination on a paper or on a painting.

✓ My parents sent me to art classes every weekend and I enjoyed them so much because I could use my imagination however I wanted and could express it on paper or in a painting.

Maintain past tense for childhood events: 'sent' is past so follow with past 'enjoyed', 'could', 'wanted'. Use 'art' (uncountable) not 'arts'. Use 'express it on paper' or 'in a painting' and avoid repeating 'imagination'.

× Yes, I liked doing painting and crafting since childhood.

✓ Yes, I have liked painting and crafting since childhood.

When an action started in the past and continues to the present, use present perfect 'have liked'. Also use gerund 'painting' rather than 'doing painting'.

× I always have interest doing painting and using my imagination.

✓ I have always been interested in painting and using my imagination.

Use 'have been interested in' to describe a continuing interest. 'Always' commonly goes before 'been'. Use 'interested in' + noun/gerund. Present perfect progressive or present perfect passive is natural here.

× No, we all have our different hobbies so for instance my mother likes to water her plants and collect different type of flowers and my father. Collect silver rings and some beads to go with.

✓ No, we all have different hobbies; for instance, my mother likes watering her plants and collecting different types of flowers, and my father collects silver rings and some beads to go with them.

Use 'different hobbies' without 'our'. 'Like watering' and 'collecting' use gerunds for activities. 'Type' should be plural 'types' when unspecified, but 'different types of flowers' or 'different kinds of flowers' is better. Fix sentence fragments and punctuation; 'my father. Collect' is a fragment—combine into one sentence and use correct verb form 'collects'. Include a pronoun ('them') to refer to the flowers or items if needed.
