Tidiness— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more concise and natural: start with a direct topic sentence, then give one clear supporting detail and a short example. Avoid repeating ideas (e.g., feeling relaxed and sleeping well are similar). Use a linking word to connect the reason and example.

Ejemplo: Yes, I do. I prefer a tidy space because clutter distracts me; for example, I always organize my room before going to work so when I return I can relax and sleep easily.

Sugerencia: Correct tense and make the answer clearer: use past tense consistently and give one specific memory as evidence. Avoid vague phrases like "a lot" and redundant mentions of being scolded and helped; instead explain one reason and one concise example with a linking word.

Ejemplo: No, I didn't. I was messy as a child because I didn't know how to organize my things; for instance, I remember one night my parents came in and found clothes and toys all over the floor, so they had to tidy the room for me.

Sugerencia: Finish your sentence and be specific about your actions. Start with a clear topic sentence, then contrast workplace cleaning with personal responsibility for your study area using linking words. Give one concrete routine (what you do and how often).

Ejemplo: At work the hospital provides cleaners to maintain hygiene, but for my study space I tidy it myself: for example, every evening I sort my notes, wipe the desk, and put books away so I can concentrate the next day.

Sugerencia: Avoid repeating the word "example" and combine similar ideas into one cohesive response. State your opinion, give one reason, and support it with a short specific instance using a linking word like "because" or "for example."

Ejemplo: Yes, it's necessary. A tidy environment helps me concentrate because disorganization distracts me; for example, if my study notes are scattered I struggle to find what I need and lose focus.

× I love to keep my things tidy.

✓ I love keeping my things tidy.

Using 'love to keep' is not incorrect, but 'love keeping' is more natural when describing a habitual preference. Both forms are acceptable; change for naturalness rather than strict grammar.

× Yes, because I feel irritated whenever things are scattered.

✓ Yes, because I feel irritated whenever things are scattered.

Sentence is grammatically correct. No change needed.

× For example, I usually arrange my room in an orderly manner before I go to work so that when I come back from my office I feel so relaxed and I'll be able to sleep very well in my room.

✓ For example, I usually arrange my room in an orderly manner before I go to work so that when I come back from the office I feel relaxed and can sleep well in my room.

Corrections: 'from my office' is wordy; 'from the office' is more natural. Remove redundant 'so' before 'relaxed' and change 'I'll be able to sleep very well' to 'can sleep well' for conciseness and natural modal usage. These are present/future usage improvements (present tense habitual action and modal simplification).

× No, I don't usually keep my room tidy when I was a kid, although my parents have scolded me a lot against keeping my room dirty.

✓ No, I didn't usually keep my room tidy when I was a kid, although my parents often scolded me for keeping my room dirty.

Mixing present simple 'don't usually keep' with past time 'when I was a kid' is incorrect; change to past simple 'didn't usually keep'. Also change present perfect 'have scolded' to past 'scolded' to match past timeframe, and 'scolded me for keeping' is the correct preposition and verb pattern.

× But because I don't know how to properly arrange my room, my parents usually help me.

✓ But because I didn't know how to properly arrange my room, my parents usually helped me.

This sentence refers to childhood, so verb tenses should be past: 'didn't know' and 'helped'. 'Usually help me' mismatches past context. Change to past tense to maintain consistent time reference.

× For example, there was one night that they came to my room and saw my room scattered.

✓ For example, one night they came to my room and saw that it was messy.

Use past simple 'one night they came' and report what they saw with 'saw that it was messy' or 'saw my room was messy'. 'My room scattered' is ungrammatical; 'scattered' needs a subject or use 'messy' which is natural.

× OK, I work in a hospital environment and as such it is supposed to be kept clean to avoid contaminations.

✓ OK, I work in a hospital environment, and as such it should be kept clean to avoid contamination.

'Is supposed to be' is acceptable but 'should be' is clearer. Use singular 'contamination' (uncountable) rather than plural 'contaminations'. Slight punctuation improvement with a comma.

× So my hospital employs cleaners to do the job of keeping everywhere tidied.

✓ So my hospital employs cleaners to keep everywhere tidy.

'Keeping everywhere tidied' is awkward. Use 'to keep everywhere tidy' for correct verb infinitive use and adjective form. 'Everywhere tidy' is natural phrasing.

× As for my study space, I do the job of cleaning my study space because it keeps me focused and.

✓ As for my study space, I clean it myself because it helps me stay focused.

Original ends with 'and.' leaving sentence incomplete. Simplify to 'I clean it myself' and 'helps me stay focused' for clarity and grammatical completeness.

× Yes, I think that it is essential to be tidy and clean.

✓ Yes, I think that it is essential to be tidy and clean.

Sentence is grammatically correct. No change needed.

× For instance, for me a tidy environment makes me focus better.

✓ For instance, a tidy environment helps me focus better.

'Makes me focus better' is understandable but 'helps me focus better' is more natural collocation. Remove redundant 'for me' when saying 'helps me.'

× Example, in my study space, whenever I come and the notes are disorganized, I feel less focused.

✓ For example, in my study space, whenever I come and the notes are disorganized, I feel less focused.

Begin with 'For example' rather than 'Example' for correct transitional phrase. Otherwise sentence is acceptable. Kept tense consistent (present habitual).
