Teachers— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be direct and clear: begin with a topic sentence naming the teacher and relationship, then give two specific supporting details using linking words. Correct grammar (tense, articles, word choice) and avoid unrelated words (‘dinner’). Keep to 3–4 sentences.

Ejemplo: Yes. My favourite teacher is my Japanese language teacher from when I first arrived in Japan. She was very kind and patient, and she helped me learn basic Japanese and settle into life here. Because of her support, I felt more confident studying and living in Japan.

Sugerencia: Start with a clear topic sentence stating your intention, then give concise reasons with linking words (for example, because, so). Fix repetition and grammar (articles, verb forms). Use specific details about how you would teach or who your students would be.

Ejemplo: Yes, I would like to be a teacher in the future because I enjoy learning languages and helping others. Since I live in Japan and can speak Japanese, I would teach Japanese to foreigners, focusing on everyday conversation and cultural tips so they can adapt more quickly.

Sugerencia: Give one clear topic sentence naming the teacher you remember and why, then add specific supporting details. Pay attention to word order and articles (e.g., 'She is Japanese' not 'She's from Japanese'). Avoid repeating the same idea and use linking words (for example, 'for example' or 'in particular').

Ejemplo: Yes, I remember many teachers, but especially Ms Yamamoto. She is Japanese and helped me a lot when I first arrived in Japan; for example, she showed me how to use public transport and introduced me to local customs. Because of her help, I felt less anxious about living here.

Sugerencia: Provide a clear and concise answer first, then give 1–2 specific supporting details with linking words. Correct small grammar issues (e.g., 'in touch', plurals, 'neighbors'). Remove filler words (uh, umm).

Ejemplo: Yes, I am still in touch with my primary school teachers. They are kind and live nearby, so I often message them to say hello or wish them happy birthday. We sometimes meet when there is a neighbourhood event.

Sugerencia: Answer with a topic sentence describing the type of help, then give a specific, coherent example using past tense and linking words (for example, 'For instance' or 'One time'). Correct grammar and phrasing (e.g., 'she helped me file a report at the police station'). Keep it to 3–4 sentences.

Ejemplo: My favourite teacher helped me in practical and emotional ways, especially when I was new here. For instance, when I lost my purse, she accompanied me to the police station and helped me file a report. Her support at that difficult moment made a big difference.

Sugerencia: Give a clear, direct answer first (yes/no/both) and then explain succinctly with reasons and a contrast if needed. Avoid double negatives ('can't never') and redundant phrases. Use linking words for comparison (for example, 'both', 'however'). Limit to 2–3 sentences.

Ejemplo: I can’t choose because I like both my primary and high school teachers equally. Both groups were kind and supportive, though my primary teachers helped me more personally while my high school teachers prepared me academically for further study.

× Yes, I have one favorite dinner.

✓ Yes, I have one favorite teacher.

The student used the noun 'dinner' incorrectly; the intended meaning is 'teacher'. This is a word choice error (adjective/noun usage). Suggestion: use 'teacher' when referring to a person who teaches.

× She was a mine Japanese language teacher, says Very kind and helpful person.

✓ She was my Japanese language teacher; she was a very kind and helpful person.

Multiple errors: 'a mine' is incorrect possessive (should be 'my'). 'says' is incorrect — likely intended 'she was' or 'she is'. Capitalization and punctuation are wrong. Suggestion: use 'my' for possession and link clauses with proper verbs and punctuation.

× Because when I came to Japan I had didn't understand Japanese language.

✓ Because when I came to Japan I did not understand the Japanese language.

Incorrect formation of past negative: 'had didn't' is ungrammatical. Use 'did not' + base verb for simple past negatives. Also include the article 'the' before 'Japanese language'. Suggestion: 'I did not understand Japanese' or 'I did not understand the Japanese language.'

× That time she helped me so much.

✓ At that time she helped me a lot.

Phrase 'That time' should be 'At that time' to indicate past reference. 'so much' is acceptable but 'a lot' is more natural here. Suggestion: use 'At that time' for specific past moments.

× That's why she's my favorite teacher.

✓ That's why she is my favorite teacher.

Contraction 'she's' is grammatically fine but may be unclear; expanded form 'she is' is clearer. No tense error; provided correction for clarity.

× Yes of course I want to be teacher in future I want to teach Japanese language because I I am a Japanese learner.

✓ Yes, of course I want to be a teacher in the future. I want to teach the Japanese language because I am a Japanese learner.

Missing articles: 'a teacher' and 'the future'. Repetition 'I I' is typo. 'teach Japanese language' needs article 'the' or simply 'teach Japanese'. Suggestion: add articles and fix repetition.

× Now I live in Japan so I can speak Japanese language as that's why in future I would like to teach Japanese language other person also.

✓ Now I live in Japan so I can speak Japanese, and that's why in the future I would like to teach Japanese to other people as well.

Run-on sentence and preposition/particle errors: 'teach Japanese language other person' needs preposition 'to' and plural 'people'. 'in future' should be 'in the future'. Suggestion: use 'teach X to Y' and 'in the future'.

× Yes, I have so many teacher that I still remember them.

✓ Yes, I have so many teachers that I still remember them.

Singular 'teacher' should be plural 'teachers' to match 'so many'. Suggestion: ensure plural with quantifiers like 'many'.

× My teachers are very kind and helpful for me every time.

✓ My teachers are very kind and helpful to me all the time.

Use 'helpful to me' rather than 'helpful for me', and 'every time' is better as 'all the time' in this context. Suggestion: prefer 'helpful to someone' and idiomatic time expressions.

× But one teacher, I would like to say her name is Yamamoto.

✓ But one teacher I would like to mention is Yamamoto.

Word order and pronoun use incorrect: 'I would like to say her name' is awkward. Use 'I would like to mention' or 'Her name is Yamamoto.' Suggestion: place the verb phrase properly.

× She's from Japanese because in Japan, when I came to the Japan, she helped me a lot.

✓ She is Japanese because when I came to Japan, she helped me a lot.

'from Japanese' is incorrect; use 'is Japanese' or 'from Japan'. Also 'the Japan' is wrong; country names normally have no article. Suggestion: say 'She is Japanese' or 'She is from Japan'.

× Yes, I still in touch with my primary school teachers also uh because they are very kind, very helpful teachers and they are also my neighbor so sometime I message them especially for their umm birthday.

✓ Yes, I am still in touch with my primary school teachers because they are very kind and helpful, and they are also my neighbors so sometimes I message them, especially on their birthdays.

Missing verb 'am' after 'I'. 'neighbor' should be plural 'neighbors'. 'sometime' -> 'sometimes'. 'message them especially for their umm birthday' -> 'message them, especially on their birthdays.' Suggestion: include 'am', pluralize nouns, and use correct adverb/adposition.

× I always like to wish them Yes I do.

✓ I always like to wish them 'Happy Birthday.' Yes, I do.

Sentence runs together and lacks punctuation; content 'wish them' requires object (a greeting). Add punctuation and correct formatting. Suggestion: separate affirmation and provide the greeting.

× Actually my favorite teacher helped me a lot.

✓ Actually, my favorite teacher helped me a lot.

Add comma for clarity; sentence is otherwise correct past tense. No major grammatical correction needed.

× But I really remember one thing.

✓ But I especially remember one incident.

'One thing' is vague; 'one incident' fits context. Suggestion: choose a more specific noun for clarity.

× One time I lost my purse.

✓ One time I lost my purse.

This sentence is grammatically correct in past tense. No change needed.

× That time we went to police station together and she helps me ever report.

✓ At that time we went to the police station together and she helped me with the report.

Tense inconsistency: 'helps' should be past 'helped'. Missing article 'the' before 'police station'. 'ever report' is incorrect; use 'with the report' or 'file the report'. Suggestion: keep past tense and use correct collocations.

× So I never remember that time she really helped me.

✓ So I will never forget the time she really helped me.

'never remember' is wrong; to express lasting memory use 'never forget'. Tense/modal: 'will never forget' or 'I will always remember'. Suggestion: use 'forget' for negative memory and add definite article 'the time'.

× It's a really tough question, but you know, I really like both of them because they are my teacher, they are really helpful, kind person.

✓ It's a really tough question, but I really like both of them because they are my teachers; they are really helpful and kind people.

Singular/plural mismatch: 'teacher' and 'person' should be plural to match 'both of them' and 'they'. Suggestion: ensure noun plurality agrees with pronoun 'they'.

× So I can't never just one.

✓ So I can't choose just one.

Double negative 'can't never' is wrong; use 'can't' or 'never' alone. 'choose' is the correct verb for selecting. Suggestion: avoid double negatives and use the verb that matches the meaning.

× And they are very good teacher and they are my friend also as well.

✓ They are also very good teachers and they are my friends as well.

Singular 'teacher'/'friend' should be plural to match 'they'. Word order 'also as well' is redundant; use one. Suggestion: pluralize and avoid redundancy.

× That's why I can't.

✓ That's why I can't choose between them.

Incomplete sentence: 'I can't' needs object or complement to convey meaning. Suggestion: complete the sentence with the verb 'choose between them' to clarify.
