Teachers— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Be more accurate, concise and correct grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Correct verb forms and remove repetition.

예시: Yes. My favourite teacher at secondary school was Mrs. Awkward, who taught mathematics. She was very calm and explained difficult concepts clearly. For example, whenever I asked a question, she always answered patiently and showed each step so I could understand.

제안: Give a clear direct response and avoid confusing fragments and contradictions. Use one or two supporting reasons with correct modal verbs and concise phrasing. Keep under five sentences.

예시: No, I do not want to be a teacher. I feel I currently lack the necessary skills and knowledge to teach effectively. For example, I find it hard to explain concepts clearly and help students grasp difficult topics, so I would prefer a different career.

제안: Good clear structure and relevant detail. Improve grammar (tense consistency), use smoother linking words and more precise vocabulary. Avoid minor pronunciation or name spelling issues by checking names and using correct forms.

예시: Yes, I remember a maths teacher called Miss Isago. She was intelligent, patient and calm. For example, whenever we asked questions, she would teach us step by step and make sure we fully understood the methods.

제안: Answer directly and give a clear concise reason. Fix repetition and tense/use of articles. Use linking phrase to make reason coherent and conclude briefly.

예시: No, I am not in touch with them. When I was in primary school, few people had phones, so I never exchanged contact details with my teachers; therefore, I have no way to contact them now.

제안: Provide a concise topic sentence and two specific ways your teacher helped you, with clear linking words and complete examples. Correct names and tense, avoid trailing off.

예시: My favourite teacher helped me by improving my understanding of mathematics and building my confidence. She patiently explained each step and gave extra practice problems, so I became more confident solving difficult questions.

× 'She is a mathematics teacher and she thought very well and very calm.'

✓ 'She is a mathematics teacher and she teaches very well and is very calm.'

'thought' is the past tense of 'think' and does not convey teaching; the correct verb is 'teaches' in present tense to match 'She is'. Also add the verb 'is' before 'very calm' to form a correct adjective complement. Suggestion: use present simple for habitual facts: 'she teaches very well and is very calm.'

× 'For example, whenever I asked question she always she always answer it quietly and equally explain better.'

✓ 'For example, whenever I asked a question she would always answer it quietly and explain it clearly.'

Multiple issues: missing article before 'question' (article error ID 22) and subject-verb agreement and tense consistency. 'I asked' is past; using 'would always answer' or 'always answered' matches past habitual. Remove duplicate 'she always'. 'Explain better' is vague; use 'explain it clearly.' Suggestion: keep tense consistent and include articles: 'whenever I asked a question she would always answer it quietly and explain it clearly.'

× 'I don't like being a teacher because I am.'

✓ 'I don't want to be a teacher because I am not.'

'I am' is incomplete and contradicts 'I don't like'; likely intended 'I am not'. Keep present simple: 'I don't want to be a teacher because I am not' is more natural. Suggestion: use clear negative 'I am not' or rephrase 'I don't want to be a teacher.'

× 'I don't have the skills and knowledge to teach.'

✓ 'I don't have the skills and knowledge to teach.'

This sentence is grammatically correct and fits the context; no change needed. Retain infinitive 'to teach' after 'skills and knowledge.'

× 'For example, I cannot be able to inculcate knowledge to the students or to explain better on how they will understand the topic or the subject.'

✓ 'For example, I cannot inculcate knowledge into the students or explain how they would understand the topic.'

'Cannot be able to' is redundant: use 'cannot' or 'am not able to.' Use correct preposition 'into' rather than 'to' for 'inculcate into.' 'Explain better on how' is unidiomatic; use 'explain how' and keep tense/modal consistency: because speaking about ability, 'cannot' and 'would understand' or 'can understand'. Suggestion: say 'I cannot inculcate knowledge into the students or explain how they would understand the topic.'

× 'So I wouldn't mind. I don't like being a.'

✓ 'So I wouldn't mind.' -> remove or complete; 'I don't like being a.' -> 'I don't like being a teacher.'

The fragment 'I don't like being a.' is incomplete (sentence without a verb or object). 'So I wouldn't mind.' is unclear in context. Likely intended 'So I wouldn't mind not being a teacher' or simply end with 'I don't like being a teacher.' Suggestion: complete the sentence: 'I don't like being a teacher.'

× 'Yes, there is one teacher that taught me mathematics.'

✓ 'Yes, there was one teacher who taught me mathematics.'

Mix of present 'there is' with past 'taught'. Use past tense 'there was' to match 'taught'. Also use 'who' for people rather than 'that.' Suggestion: keep tense consistent: 'There was one teacher who taught me mathematics.'

× 'For example, whenever we asked her questions, she will always teach us step by step and ensure that we understood everything.'

✓ 'For example, whenever we asked her questions, she would always teach us step by step and ensured that we understood everything.'

Tense inconsistency: 'asked' and 'understood' are past; 'will always teach' is future/modal. For past habitual, use 'would always teach' and 'ensured' or keep past simple 'she always taught us... and ensured...' Suggestion: use past habitual 'would' or simple past for consistency.

× 'No, I no longer communicate with my primary school teachers because during my primary school age there was no phone.'

✓ 'No, I no longer communicate with my primary school teachers because when I was in primary school there were no phones.'

'During my primary school age' is unnatural; use 'when I was in primary school.' 'There was no phone' should be pluralized to 'there were no phones' or 'I didn't have a phone.' Subject-verb agreement with plural 'phones.' Suggestion: 'when I was in primary school there were no phones' or 'I didn't have a phone then.'

× 'So there there was no how I could have gotten her number. So this is.'

✓ 'So there was no way I could have gotten her number.'

Duplicate 'there there' and ungrammatical phrase 'no how I could have gotten.' Use 'no way' to indicate impossibility. The fragment 'So this is.' is incomplete and should be removed. Suggestion: 'So there was no way I could have gotten her number.'

× 'Yes, there are so many reasons why I love my best teacher she is missus savage she taught me mathematics firstly, I love her because she is so patient to us, calm and more tolerant for example, whenever we.'

✓ 'Yes, there are many reasons why I love my best teacher. She is Mrs Savage; she taught me mathematics. Firstly, I love her because she is very patient with us, calm, and tolerant.'

Run-on sentence and capitalization issues. 'So many' is acceptable but 'there are many reasons' is more concise. Use correct title 'Mrs Savage.' 'Patient to us' should be 'patient with us.' 'More tolerant' is comparative without comparison; use 'tolerant.' The sentence fragment at the end needs completion. Suggestion: split into clear sentences, correct title and preposition: 'patient with us.'
