Teachers— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be more concise and check grammar. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid repetition (e.g., saying "I did have" and "that teacher was"). Use correct plural/singular forms and link ideas with a brief reason. Keep it within 2–4 sentences.

Exemplo: My favourite teacher was my math teacher because he encouraged me and praised my problem-solving skills. He was kind and supportive, which made me enjoy math and work harder in class.

Sugestão: Clarify your tense and intention: use present/future for current plans. Remove contradictory or unclear phrases ("go with my way back"). Give a concise reason and a plan for how you would start. Use linking words like "because" or "so" for coherence.

Exemplo: Yes, I would like to be an English teacher. I would start teaching young children because their level is lower and I could build their skills gradually, which suits my patient teaching style.

Sugestão: Avoid informal or exaggerated words like "evil" and correct grammar (e.g., "weren't very good to me" not "at me"). Start with a clear topic sentence and then contrast with a brief reason using linking words such as "however" or "but." Be specific about what made a teacher memorable.

Exemplo: Yes, I remember several teachers, especially my favourite and a few who were unkind. However, I mostly remember the kind teachers because they supported me and made learning enjoyable.

Sugestão: Be concise and correct word order (e.g., "I don't know whether they still work at the same school"). Use one or two sentences: state fact and add a short wish or reason. Avoid repetition.

Exemplo: No, I've lost touch with my primary school teachers and friends, and I don't know where they are now. I would like to reconnect someday because I miss hearing about their lives and thanking them for their support.

Sugestão: Use consistent tense and correct verbs (e.g., "when he set an equation and I solved it"). Avoid repetition of similar verbs (praised, encouraged, supported). Provide a concise result using linking words like "so" or "as a result."

Exemplo: He boosted my confidence by praising me when I solved equations. As a result, I became more motivated, performed better in class, and studied harder.

× Yes, back when I was at school, I did have a favorite teacher and that teacher was my math teacher.

✓ Yes, back when I was at school, I had a favorite teacher and that teacher was my math teacher.

Using 'did have' is unnecessary emphatic past tense here; simple past 'had' is correct and more natural. Use simple past for habitual or state in the past.

× Math was also my favorite subject and he was always praising my intelligence and my ability to solve a different difficult equation.

✓ Math was also my favorite subject, and he always praised my intelligence and my ability to solve different difficult equations.

'Was always praising' is a continuous form that can be used but sounds odd for habitual praise; simple past 'praised' is better. 'A different difficult equation' has article and adjective order issues and number mismatch; 'different difficult equations' or 'different difficult equation' depending on meaning; plural 'equations' fits general ability.

× And I really love him because he was very kind and very friendly to me and to other.

✓ And I really liked him because he was very kind and very friendly to me and to others.

Tense should be past ('loved/liked') to match 'was.' 'To other' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'to others.' Use plural pronoun for people.

× I thought about being an English teacher.

✓ I thought about becoming an English teacher.

Use 'becoming' (verb + -ing) after 'thought about.' 'Being' can work but 'becoming' is more natural when describing a career plan.

× I wanted to teach English to actually kids because the level of English required there is very low.

✓ I wanted to teach English to actual kids because the level of English required there is very low.

'Actually kids' is incorrect word order; adverb 'actually' should come before adjective phrase or be replaced by adjective 'actual.' Use 'actual kids' or better 'young learners' depending on intent.

× And it's not the fact that I'm bad at English, I'm very good at English, but I want to start very slow and gradually go with my way back.

✓ It's not that I'm bad at English—I am quite good at English—but I want to start very slowly and gradually work my way back.

'Not the fact that' is awkward; use 'not that.' Use adverb 'slowly' instead of adjective 'slow.' 'Go with my way back' is incorrect; correct idiom is 'work my way back' meaning to progress gradually.

× Yes, of course, I remember a lot of teachers, especially my favorite 1, and I remember also the bad ones or the evil ones, the ones who weren't very good at me and were very were bullying me at every occasion.

✓ Yes, of course, I remember a lot of teachers, especially my favorite one, and I also remember the bad or mean ones, the ones who weren't very good to me and who bullied me on every occasion.

Use 'one' not '1.' 'Evil' is too strong; 'mean' is more natural. 'Very were bullying' is ungrammatical; use simple past 'bullied.' Use 'good to me' rather than 'good at me.' Also add 'who' for clarity.

× No, I lost touch with all of my teachers, all of my friends and I don't have any way to contact them nor I know whether they work at still in the same school or they moved to the different ones.

✓ No, I lost touch with all of my teachers and friends, and I don't have any way to contact them nor do I know whether they still work at the same school or have moved to different ones.

Use inversion 'nor do I know' for correct negative coordination. 'Work at still' is incorrect word order; 'still work at the same school' is correct. Use present perfect 'have moved' or simple past 'moved' depending on context; 'have moved' fits unspecified time.

× So yeah, I lost contact with them, but it would be great to be to keep in touch with them again.

✓ So yeah, I lost contact with them, but it would be great to keep in touch with them again.

Remove extra 'to' after 'be' — 'be to keep' is ungrammatical. Use 'keep in touch with them again' or simply 'be able to keep in touch.'

× My favorite teacher helped me regarding my confidence whenever he lists an equation and I solve them.

✓ My favorite teacher helped me with my confidence whenever he listed an equation and I solved it.

Tense should be past: 'listed' and 'solved.' 'Regarding my confidence' is awkward—'helped me with my confidence' is natural. 'They/them' mismatch: 'an equation' is singular so use 'it.'

× He really praised me a lot for it and supported me and encouraged me and actually praise my intelligence and that really helped me back then to stand out and to perform better and to study better.

✓ He really praised me a lot for it, supported and encouraged me, and actually praised my intelligence; that really helped me back then to stand out, perform better, and study more effectively.

Maintain past tense consistently: 'praise' should be 'praised.' Combine verbs with parallel structure and use commas for clarity. 'To study better' changed to 'study more effectively' for natural phrasing.
