Examinador
Are you still in touch with your primary school teachers?
Candidato
No, because of my busy routine, I really get less time to, uh, to become socialized and to, uh, to meet with uh, other my old people or my friends. That's is the reason I don't, I'm not in.
Examinador
In what way has your favourite teacher helped you?

Do you like your primary school teachers more than your high school teachers?

× One of my favorite teacher who teaches me emotional intelligence that's really helped me to, uh, develop how to manage my emotions, how to, uh, show certain emotion at certain times.
✓ One of my favorite teachers, who taught me emotional intelligence, has really helped me to develop how to manage my emotions and how to show certain emotions at the right times.
Singular/plural and verb tense/agreement issues: 'One of my favorite teacher' should be 'teachers' because 'one of' requires a plural noun. 'Who teaches me' should be 'who taught me' or 'who has taught me' to match past action; here 'has really helped' fits with present relevance, so 'who taught me' or reduced clause works. 'Show certain emotion' needs plural 'emotions' and 'at the right times' is more natural than 'at certain times.' Also added commas for the nonrestrictive relative clause.
× No, I don't want to become a teacher, but if I get the opportunity to become a teacher, I would definitely love to do this job because there are a lot of skills and knowledge which I would like love to transfer it to others.
✓ No, I don't want to become a teacher, but if I get the opportunity, I would definitely love to do this job because there are a lot of skills and knowledge that I would like to transfer to others.
Redundancy and modal construction: removed repeated 'become a teacher' and 'would like love to' which is ungrammatical; use 'would like to transfer' or 'would love to transfer.' Also 'which I would like to transfer it to others' incorrectly repeats the object; use 'that I would like to transfer to others.'
× There are a lot of teachers to whom I will never able to forget because of their, uh, behavior.
✓ There are a lot of teachers whom I will never be able to forget because of their behavior.
'Will never able to forget' is missing the auxiliary 'be' and uses awkward word order. 'To whom' is correct but more natural here is 'whom I will never be able to forget' or 'who I will never be able to forget.' Removed filler and extra commas.
× They showed the the knowledge, the amount of knowledge they teach Jesus and the things we learned from them are really amazing.
✓ They showed the knowledge and the amount they taught us, and the things we learned from them are really amazing.
Repeating 'the' and the word 'Jesus' seems incorrect in context; likely 'us' was intended. 'They teach' should be past 'they taught' to match context. Reordered for clarity: 'showed the knowledge and the amount they taught us' and combined clauses with conjunctions.
× No, because of my busy routine, I really get less time to, uh, to become socialized and to, uh, to meet with uh, other my old people or my friends.
✓ No, because of my busy routine, I have less time to socialize and to meet my old friends or other people.
Incorrect verb and noun forms: 'get less time' is better as 'have less time.' 'Become socialized' is unnatural here; use 'socialize.' 'Meet with' can be 'meet' and 'other my old people' is incorrect order; use 'my old friends or other people.' Removed fillers.
× That's is the reason I don't, I'm not in.
✓ That's the reason I'm not in contact with them.
Fragment and contraction errors: 'That's is' doubles the verb; use 'That's' or 'That is.' 'I don't, I'm not in' is a sentence fragment and unclear; supply the missing object 'in contact with them' to complete the idea.
× There are a lot of ways that my favorite teacher helps me.
✓ There are a lot of ways that my favorite teacher helped me.
Tense inconsistency: the question asked 'In what way has your favourite teacher helped you?' so use past tense 'helped me' or present perfect 'has helped me.' Using present 'helps me' is less appropriate when referring to a past teacher.
× One of uh, the way she helped me was when I was in school and struggling to learn English.
✓ One of the ways she helped me was when I was in school and struggling to learn English.
'One of the way' should be 'one of the ways' because 'one of' requires a plural noun. Removed fillers and corrected number agreement.
× She really helped me to learn uh, grammar and vocabulary and when I was struggling.
✓ She really helped me to learn grammar and vocabulary when I was struggling.
Sentence fragment/extra conjunction: remove the extra 'and' and place the subordinate clause 'when I was struggling' directly after the main clause. Also 'helped me to learn' is acceptable; 'helped me learn' is also natural.
× Yeah, because primary school teachers are more patient and they are very, uh, hardworking.
✓ Yes, because primary school teachers are more patient and very hardworking.
Minor register: 'Yeah' to 'Yes' for formality in test context and remove filler 'they are' for conciseness. No major grammatical error but improved style.
× Because when we are learning our basics, we need more time.
✓ Because when we are learning the basics, we need more time.
Article use: 'our basics' is awkward; 'the basics' is more natural. Tense 'are learning' is acceptable for general present continuous context.
× We need more, uh, uh, like energy from the teachers. So that's why.
✓ We need more energy from the teachers, so that's why.
Redundant filler words removed and connected the clauses properly; 'So that's why' is redundant but acceptable colloquially. Better: 'We need more energy from the teachers, which is why.'
