Watch— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Clarify vocabulary and correct word choice, tidy grammar, and make the response more concise. Start with a direct topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid repetition and pronunciation mistakes (e.g., watch vs. wash).

Ejemplo: I don't usually wear a watch. However, I wear a fitness watch when I exercise because it helps me monitor my heart rate and track distance and calories, which improves my workouts.

Sugerencia: Correct word choice and minor grammar (watch, mom/mum consistency). Start with a clear topic sentence, then give a concise reason with a linking word. Provide slightly more specific detail about the watch or how it encouraged you.

Ejemplo: Yes. My mum gave me a watch when I started high school, and I still value it. She gave it to remind me to be patient and disciplined with my studies, and I often look at it before exams to calm myself.

Sugerencia: Improve grammar and add linking words to make the explanation flow. Use plural agreement and refine vocabulary (e.g., ‘a form of investment’). Add a brief example or reason to support each point.

Ejemplo: I think it depends on the person. For some, an expensive watch is a form of investment because certain brands keep or increase in value, while for others it acts as a status symbol that signals success or taste.

Sugerencia: Make the response more fluent and eliminate filler words (uh). Begin with a clear opinion, support it with one or two concise reasons using linking words, and correct minor phrasing (e.g., 'check the time' not 'check the timed').

Ejemplo: I don't think wearing a watch is essential just to tell the time because smartphones can do that easily. However, watches are still useful as fitness trackers or accessories that complete an outfit.

× Not really, I'm not a waste person, I just wear wash when I go for workout because I want to monitor my heart rate and track my workout as well.

✓ Not really, I'm not a waste person; I just wear a watch when I go for a workout because I want to monitor my heart rate and track my exercise as well.

The sentence uses incorrect words 'waste' and 'wash' instead of 'wrist' or 'watch'. Assuming 'watch' is intended, article 'a' is needed before 'watch' and before 'workout' add 'a'. Use a semicolon or conjunction to join two independent clauses. 'Track my workout' is acceptable but 'track my exercise' is clearer. Suggestion: use correct nouns and include necessary articles; proofread for similar-sounding word errors.

× Yes, my mum gave me a wash when I started going to high school.

✓ Yes, my mum gave me a watch when I started going to high school.

The word 'wash' is incorrect; 'watch' is intended. The verb 'gave' and 'started' are correctly in the past tense for a past event. Only the noun needed correction. Suggestion: check homophones and ensure the intended noun is used.

× It's quite a sentimental gift for me because my mom wanted to encourage me to be patient and dedicated for my study.

✓ It's quite a sentimental gift for me because my mom wanted to encourage me to be patient and dedicated in my studies.

Use the preposition 'in' with 'dedicated' when referring to an area (in my studies). 'For my study' is unnatural; plural 'studies' is standard. Suggestion: use 'dedicated to' or 'dedicated in' with plural 'studies' for academic contexts.

× It depends on the person. For some is the form of investment, but other may consider it for a symbol of status.

✓ It depends on the person. For some, it is a form of investment, but others may consider it a symbol of status.

Missing subject 'it' after the adverbial phrase 'For some'; need comma after 'For some'. Use 'a form' (countable noun) and 'others' (plural) to match 'some'. Use 'a symbol' without 'for'. Suggestion: include subjects in elliptical phrases and match singular/plural and article usage.

× The way I see it, if it's only for taking time, I think it's not essential anymore because people nowadays have their own smartphone which can check, uh, the timed conveniently.

✓ The way I see it, if it's only for telling the time, I don't think it's essential anymore because people nowadays have their own smartphones which can check the time conveniently.

Use the verb phrase 'tell the time' rather than 'take time'. 'I don't think' is more natural than 'I think it's not'. 'Smartphone' should be plural when referring generally: 'smartphones'. 'Timed' is incorrect; use the noun 'time'. Also remove filler 'uh'. Suggestion: prefer standard collocations ('tell the time') and keep consistent subject-verb forms and correct noun forms.
