Is it easy for you to remember people's names?
Pontuação: 62.0Sugestão: Answer directly in the first sentence, then give one clear reason and a brief example. Avoid repeating the same idea, and use correct plural and verb forms: “people’s names,” “two or three times,” and “a weak memory.” The phrase “at least” is repeated unnecessarily, so finish with one concise concluding sentence.
Exemplo: No, I’m not very good at remembering people’s names. I have a fairly weak memory, so I sometimes have to ask someone to repeat their name two or three times. However, I usually remember it after speaking with them for a while.
How do you remember people's names?
Pontuação: 55.0Sugestão: Use a clear method as the topic sentence and explain it in complete, natural sentences. Correct the grammar in “people’s name” and “I’m trying to recognise”; say “I remember people’s names by associating them with their faces” and “I try to remember.” Avoid the unfinished ending and add a specific example to make the answer more effective.
Exemplo: I usually remember people’s names by associating them with their faces. I pay attention to distinctive features, such as their eyes, hairstyle, or clothing style. If I still forget the name, I politely ask the person to repeat it.
How do you feel when people can't remember your name?
Pontuação: 68.0Sugestão: Your answer gives a clear feeling and reason, but the final clause is unnatural and unclear. Explain that being called “hey” or by the wrong name can make you feel overlooked, and use a linking word such as “because” or “especially when.” Avoid unnecessary fillers like “well” and “actually” if they do not add meaning.
Exemplo: I feel a little disappointed when people cannot remember my name. It makes me feel as if they have not paid much attention to our conversation, especially if they call me by the wrong name or simply say “hey.” However, I understand that remembering names can be difficult.
Do you often forget people's names?
Pontuação: 30.0Sugestão: Give a complete answer with a direct frequency statement, a reason, and one understandable strategy or example. The response currently contains repeated words, an unfinished phrase, and unclear vocabulary such as “exercise psychologist exercise.” Correct “people’s name” to “people’s names,” and do not continue speaking if the idea is complete; use a simple phrase such as “I have been doing memory exercises.”
Exemplo: Yes, I often forget people’s names because I have a weak memory. Recently, I have been doing some memory exercises to improve it. For example, I repeat a person’s name silently after meeting them, which helps me remember it.

✓ Well, I think it's not that easy to remember people's names because I do have a very weak memory, and I often ask people for their names two or three times. At least, I think I'm really bad at remembering names.
People's names must be plural because the speaker is referring to the names of multiple people. Also, two and three require the plural noun times. Use two or three times rather than two time or three times.

✓ Well, I think it's not that easy to remember people's names because I do have a very weak memory, and I often ask people for their names two or three times. At least, I think I'm really bad at remembering names.
The singular countable noun memory needs the indefinite article a in a very weak memory. The article the is unnecessary before people because the sentence refers to people in general, not to a specific group.
× Well, I remember people's name by their face. I'm trying to recognise their eyes, their hair or their style and I have to ask them two times, three times at least remember.
✓ Well, I remember people's names by their faces. I try to recognise their eyes, hair, or style, and I have to ask them two or three times before I remember their names.
People's names and their faces need to be plural because the speaker is discussing several people. The phrase two or three times also requires the plural form times.
× Well, I remember people's name by their face. I'm trying to recognise their eyes, their hair or their style and I have to ask them two times, three times at least remember.
✓ Well, I remember people's names from their faces. I try to recognise their eyes, hair, or style, and I have to ask them two or three times before I remember their names.
From is more natural than by when explaining the information used to identify or remember someone. Use before I remember their names to connect the action of asking with the result.

✓ Well, I remember people's names from their faces. I try to recognise their eyes, hair, or style, and I have to ask them two or three times before I remember their names.
The original response ends with an incomplete phrase, two times, three times at least remember. The clause needs a subject and a verb, and before I remember their names clearly shows the relationship between the two actions.
× Well, when people cannot remember my name, I do feel a little bit sad actually, because I don't like someone to call me by a different name if they forget or just hey.
✓ Well, when people cannot remember my name, I feel a little sad because I don't like it when someone calls me by a different name or just says, Hey.
The original sentence contains an incomplete ending: or just hey. The verb says is needed before the quoted expression. The structure I don't like it when someone calls me is also clearer and more natural.
× Well, when people cannot remember my name, I do feel a little bit sad actually, because I don't like someone to call me by a different name if they forget or just hey.
✓ Well, when people cannot remember my name, I feel a little sad because I don't like it when someone calls me by a different name or just says, Hey.
In the clause someone calls me, the singular subject someone requires the third-person singular verb calls. Similarly, someone says requires says rather than say.

✓ Yes, I do forget people's names because I have a weak memory. Recently, I have been trying to do psychological exercises to improve my memory.
People's names must be plural because the speaker is referring to the names of multiple people. Exercises is plural because the speaker is referring to activities in general, not one specific exercise.

✓ Yes, I do forget people's names because I have a weak memory. Recently, I have been trying to do psychological exercises to improve my memory.
The original response contains several incomplete and disconnected phrases, such as but because, in the last period, and take or do exercise exercise. Dividing the response into complete sentences makes the ideas clear and gives each clause a complete grammatical structure.

✓ Yes, I do forget people's names because I have a weak memory. Recently, I have been trying to do psychological exercises to improve my memory.
Psychological is the adjective that describes exercises related to psychology. Psychologist is a noun referring to a person, so exercise psychologist exercise is not grammatically or semantically appropriate here.
