Teachers— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more concise and combine details to avoid redundancy; start with a clear topic sentence and add one specific reason or example. Use linking words like “because” or “for example.”

Ejemplo: Yes — my favourite teacher was Mrs. Ramola, who taught me English at school because she always made lessons engaging. For example, she used games and stories to explain new words, which helped me remember them easily.

Sugerencia: Directly answer the question with a clear topic sentence, then give 1–2 concise reasons using linking words. Avoid awkward phrasing and word choice errors (e.g., 'forgiving' not 'forgiven').

Ejemplo: No, I don't plan to become a teacher because I'm already a doctor and I don't think I have the patience it requires. Although I admire teachers for their kindness and generosity, my career and temperament suit medicine better.

Sugerencia: Start with a concise topic sentence and add one specific example of what made the teacher memorable. Replace awkward phrases like 'we had no doubts henceforth' with clearer language and use a linking word such as 'because' or 'for example.'

Ejemplo: Yes — I still remember my class 12 physics teacher because he explained difficult concepts clearly. For example, he used simple experiments and analogies so all of us understood and rarely had any doubts.

Sugerencia: Give a direct answer, then explain briefly with clear linking words. Reduce hesitations and inconsistent pronouns; keep sentences short and coherent.

Ejemplo: Not really. I follow some of my primary teachers on Facebook and Instagram, so I only meet them when they visit the city. Otherwise, I'm not in daily contact with them.

Sugerencia: Avoid repetition and unclear word choice (e.g., 'subterranean' is incorrect). Give one or two specific ways she helped, linked with words like 'for example' or 'as a result.'

Ejemplo: She helped me by making lessons memorable and enjoyable. For example, she told a short story related to each topic, which made it easier for me to remember facts and stay interested in class.

× She used to make the subterranean interesting.

✓ She used to make the subject interesting.

The word 'subterranean' is incorrect in this context; the intended noun is 'subject'. This is a vocabulary choice error rather than a grammatical form, but it makes the sentence ungrammatical semantically. Replace 'subterranean' with 'subject' to convey the intended meaning.

× A teacher requires to be really kind and forgiven, and she has to be full of generosity.

✓ A teacher needs to be really kind and forgiving, and she has to be full of generosity.

The verb phrase 'requires to be' is incorrect; English uses 'require' with a noun or 'need to' + verb. Use 'needs to be' or 'is required to be'. Also 'forgiven' is the past participle; the correct adjective/participle for the intended meaning is 'forgiving'. Change 'forgiven' to 'forgiving' to describe the teacher's quality.

× I feel being a teacher is a very kind job, but I don't think so I have the patience to become a teacher.

✓ I think being a teacher is a very kind job, but I don't think I have the patience to become one.

The phrase 'I feel being a teacher' is awkward; use 'I think' or 'I feel that being a teacher'. Also 'I don't think so I have' has incorrect word order and the extraneous 'so'. Reorder to 'I don't think I have the patience' and avoid repeating 'a teacher' by using the pronoun 'one'.

× So we make it a point to go and meet her.

✓ So we make it a point to go and meet them.

The antecedent refers to 'teachers' (plural) earlier in the context. Using 'her' (singular) creates a mismatch. Change to 'them' to agree in number with 'teachers'.

× Other than that, we, I don't, I'm not in contact with him on daily basis.

✓ Other than that, I'm not in contact with them on a daily basis.

Pronoun reference is inconsistent: 'we, I' is confused and 'him' does not match the earlier plural 'teachers'. Simplify to 'I'm not in contact with them' and include the article 'a' in 'a daily basis' for correct idiom.

× We get to know if any of the teachers is, uh, visiting the city.

✓ We find out if any of the teachers is, uh, visiting the city.

The verb phrase 'get to know' is used incorrectly here; 'get to know' means to become acquainted. For learning about an event, use 'find out' or 'learn'. This is a lexical/preposition-like usage error; replacing the phrase clarifies the meaning.

× I'm a doctor by profession though.

✓ I'm a doctor by profession, though.

Add a comma before 'though' to improve sentence flow and punctuation. The article usage 'a doctor' is correct; this change addresses punctuation rather than article grammar, improving readability.

× She used to teach me English in my school.

✓ She used to teach me English at my school.

The preposition 'in' is less natural with 'school' in this context; 'at my school' is the idiomatic choice. The past tense 'used to' is correct to describe a habitual past action.

× Her name was Mrs. Ramola.

✓ Her name was Mrs Ramola.

This correction removes the period after the title 'Mrs' to reflect a style choice; both 'Mrs.' and 'Mrs' are acceptable depending on style. No grammatical tense error; included for minor stylistic consistency.

× He had a very good knack to teach the subject beautifully and we had no doubts henceforth.

✓ He had a very good knack for teaching the subject clearly, and we had no doubts after that.

Use 'knack for' plus gerund ('teaching') rather than 'knack to teach'. 'Beautifully' is vague; 'clearly' is more appropriate for teaching. 'Henceforth' is used incorrectly here; use 'after that' to indicate subsequent time.
