Teachers— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be concise, correct grammar and gender references, and avoid hesitations. Start with a clear topic sentence, follow with 1–2 specific supporting details, and use linking words. Correct verb forms and pronouns (taught, his, practical).

Ejemplo: Yes. My favorite teacher was my university medicine lecturer. He was very funny and explained complex ideas clearly, and his practical demonstrations helped me understand clinical procedures better.

Sugerencia: Keep answers complete and avoid mixed metaphors. Use one clear opinion sentence then give 1–2 precise reasons with linking words (because, therefore). Avoid unfinished sentences. Use neutral pronouns consistently.

Ejemplo: Yes, I would like to be a teacher because I enjoy sharing knowledge and helping others learn. However, I know it is a big responsibility, so I would work hard to prepare lessons and support students individually.

Sugerencia: Be specific and avoid repetition and pronoun errors. Use linking words (for example, because) and correct phrases (hands-on experience). Keep it to 2–3 sentences with clear reasons why you remember them.

Ejemplo: Yes, I remember a university teacher who often took us to farms for hands-on experience. He was strict but supportive, and those practical sessions greatly improved my clinical skills.

Sugerencia: Avoid hesitations and incomplete sentences. Make your point clearly with a topic sentence and 1–2 supporting details (how often you contact them, why). Use past/simple present correctly and finish your thought.

Ejemplo: Yes, I am still in touch with one primary school teacher who is my friend’s aunt. I visit her occasionally and always ask about her health because I heard she was unwell recently.

Sugerencia: This answer is clear—improve by adding a specific example of how they helped and a linking phrase. Remove filler words like 'uh' and give a concise result of their help.

Ejemplo: My favorite teacher boosted my confidence and clinical skills. For example, he supervised my first minor surgery step by step, which made me feel capable of performing similar procedures independently.

Sugerencia: Answer directly and avoid vague or unfinished sentences. State your preference clearly, then give 1–2 specific reasons or examples using linking words (because, therefore).

Ejemplo: I prefer my high school teachers because I remember several who made lessons engaging and explained difficult topics clearly, which helped me do better in exams.

× He teached us medicine.

✓ He taught us medicine.

The verb 'teach' is irregular; its past tense is 'taught', not 'teached'. Use irregular past form when referring to completed actions in the past. Suggestion: memorize common irregular verbs (teach-taught, bring-brought, etc.) and practice them in past-tense sentences.

× he made her ideas very clear.

✓ he made his ideas very clear.

Pronoun 'her' refers to a female, but the teacher is referred to as 'he'. This is a pronoun reference error. Use 'his' to match the masculine subject. Suggestion: ensure pronouns agree in gender with their antecedents.

× I was a big fan of him because of his amazing knowledge and practically.

✓ I was a big fan of him because of his amazing knowledge and practicality.

Use 'of him' could be better as 'of his' but is acceptable; main errors: 'practically' (an adverb) is incorrect here; the noun 'practicality' fits. Also 'a big fan of him' is less natural than 'a big fan of his'. Suggestion: use nouns when listing qualities (knowledge and practicality) and match possessive pronouns ('a fan of his').

× being a teacher is a very huge responsibility on your shoulders.

✓ being a teacher is a huge responsibility on your shoulders.

'Very huge' is redundant; 'huge' already expresses degree. Also 'on your shoulders' is idiomatic but passive phrasing; keep 'a huge responsibility' without 'very'. Suggestion: avoid combining 'very' with absolute adjectives like 'huge' or 'dead', and prefer concise phrasing.

× A teacher should be very admirable for the students and should have a river of knowledge so she can transfer it to the students more accurately.

✓ A teacher should be very admirable to the students and should have a river of knowledge so he or she can transfer it to the students more accurately.

Preposition 'admirable for' is incorrect; use 'admirable to' (or 'respected by'). Also pronoun 'she' is used but earlier general subject 'a teacher' was male in earlier sentences; use 'he or she' or plural 'they' for gender neutrality. Suggestion: use 'admired by students' or 'respected by students' and use consistent gender-neutral pronouns ('they') or match earlier references.

× Moreover, I believe.

✓ Moreover, I believe so.

The sentence is incomplete; 'I believe' needs an object or complement (e.g., 'I believe so' or 'I believe that...'). Suggestion: complete the thought by adding what you believe or use 'I believe so' to indicate agreement.

× He was very funny and he had a great knowledge of practical experience especially he used to take us to the farms especially to gain some had on experience.

✓ He was very funny and had great practical knowledge; especially, he used to take us to farms to gain hands-on experience.

Problems: 'a great knowledge of practical experience' is awkward — use 'great practical knowledge'. Repetition of 'especially' unnecessary. 'had on experience' is incorrect; intended phrase is 'hands-on experience'. Also 'take us to the farms' -> 'take us to farms' unless specific farms. Suggestion: use concise noun phrases ('practical knowledge') and idiomatic expressions ('hands-on experience').

× He was quite strict but I believe he was doing that because of her own.

✓ He was quite strict but I believe he was doing that because of his own reasons.

'Because of her own' mixes pronouns and is incomplete. Should match gender ('his') and add noun ('reasons' or 'good intentions'). Suggestion: ensure pronoun agreement and complete the phrase ('because of his own reasons' or 'because of his own principles').

× I am in touch with one of my primary school teachers whom I admired the most, uh, because she's one of my uh, friends aunt.

✓ I am in touch with one of my primary school teachers whom I admired the most because she's one of my friend's aunts.

Possessive and noun number errors: 'friends aunt' needs possessive 'friend's' and 'aunt' should be 'aunts' if singular friend has multiple aunts? If referring to one aunt of a friend, use 'my friend's aunt'. Also initial clause 'whom I admired the most' is okay. Suggestion: use correct possessive form and singular/plural agreement.

× Whenever I visit her house, I always ask about how my teacher is umm, feeling.

✓ Whenever I visit her house, I always ask about how my teacher is feeling.

This sentence is fine except for filler 'umm'; remove filler and the comma. The original had verb 'ask' so not a sentence without verb; correction removes disfluency. Suggestion: avoid fillers in formal speech and remove unnecessary commas.

× Uh, because I heard she got a little bit sick a while ago. I always.

✓ I heard she got a little bit sick a while ago, so I always ask about her health.

Fragment 'I always.' is incomplete. Combine sentences and complete thought: state what 'I always' does. Suggestion: avoid sentence fragments; ensure verbs and objects complete the idea.

× I would say my favorite teacher helped me to gain more confidence and more experience in my field.

✓ I would say my favorite teacher helped me gain more confidence and more experience in my field.

'Helped me to gain' is acceptable but in conversational English 'helped me gain' is more natural; both are correct. This is minor; I suggest removing 'to' for conciseness. Suggestion: use bare infinitive after 'help' optionally ('helped me (to) gain').

× at first I was very reluctant to do any type of uh surgery, but my favorite teacher was always on my side, making me uh, more confident.

✓ At first I was very reluctant to perform any type of surgery, but my favorite teacher was always on my side, making me more confident.

'do surgery' is informal; 'perform surgery' is more appropriate for medical context. Capitalize sentence start and remove fillers. Tense is correct. Suggestion: use appropriate verbs for professional contexts ('perform' for surgery) and avoid filler words.

× As I mentioned earlier, I don't remember much about my primary school teachers, but yes and my high school I still remember some of the teachers we spent a great time with.

✓ As I mentioned earlier, I don't remember much about my primary school teachers, but I still remember some of my high school teachers with whom I spent a great time.

Sentence structure and pronoun use issues: extraneous 'yes and my high school' is incorrect. Reorder to 'some of my high school teachers with whom I spent a great time' or 'with whom I had a great time'. Suggestion: remove 'yes', place 'I still remember' clearly, and use 'with whom' or end with '...teachers I spent a great time with' for informal speech.

× A few teachers were among the ones whose class I used to enjoy a lot because they had extensive knowledge and their way of explaining things was very easy and.

✓ A few teachers were among the ones whose classes I used to enjoy a lot because they had extensive knowledge and their way of explaining things was very clear.

Problems: 'whose class' should be plural 'classes' to match 'a few teachers'; 'very easy and.' is incomplete and 'easy' is not the correct adjective for explanation — use 'clear'. Also remove trailing conjunction. Suggestion: ensure parallel structure and complete the sentence with appropriate adjectives ('clear' or 'easy to understand').
