Teachers— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be more direct and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, avoid filler words (um, like), correct inaccuracies ("teach this accountant" likely wrong), and add one specific detail about why Mr. Rakesh was a favorite using a linking phrase (for example, because/so). Keep it within 2–4 sentences.

Exemplo: I don't have a single favourite teacher now, but when I was a child I admired several teachers. For example, Mr. Rakesh, who taught accounting, was my favourite because he explained difficult concepts clearly and used real-life examples that made lessons interesting.

Sugestão: Give a concise answer with one or two specific reasons and an example of relevant experience. Remove excessive hesitations and redundant phrases. Use linking words (for example, because/so) to connect the reason and the example.

Exemplo: Yes, I do want to become a teacher because I enjoy explaining ideas and helping others learn. For example, as a child I often checked classmates' notebooks and helped them understand lessons, which showed me I like teaching and communicating concepts clearly.

Sugestão: Be specific and precise. State one or two teachers and give clear reasons why you remember them, avoiding repetition and hesitations. Use linking words (for example, additionally/besides) to structure the answer and correct unclear phrases.

Exemplo: Yes, I remember several teachers. For instance, Mr. Rakesh, my accounting teacher, because he used practical examples, and Ms. Vimla, my economics teacher, because her teaching style made complex topics easy to understand.

Sugestão: Answer directly and clearly. Give one brief reason for not being in touch and one specific future plan. Remove filler words and make tenses consistent. Use linking words (because/so/therefore) to connect ideas.

Exemplo: No, I'm not currently in touch with my primary school teachers because I live in Canada and I don't have their contact details. However, I plan to visit India next year and meet them when I return.

Sugestão: Focus on one or two specific ways a teacher helped you. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give a concrete example showing the result (use linking words such as for example/so/therefore). Avoid vague statements and filler words.

Exemplo: My favourite teacher helped me overcome nervousness. For example, Ms. Urmila encouraged me to speak in class and gave gentle feedback, which increased my confidence so I became more active in lessons.

Sugestão: Give a clear comparative statement and one or two specific reasons. Avoid repetition and hesitations. Use linking words (because/while/however) to make the contrast clear and finish with a concluding sentence.

Exemplo: I prefer my high school teachers because I formed stronger connections with them as a teenager. For example, in senior secondary school I talked to teachers about career choices and got regular feedback, which helped me build a closer relationship.

× Well I do not have a favorite teacher as of now because I am normal student.

✓ Well, I do not have a favorite teacher at the moment because I am a normal student.

Missing definite article 'a' before 'normal student' and 'as of now' is better phrased as 'at the moment' for naturalness. Add comma after 'Well'. Use 'a' for singular countable nouns.

× However, if I talk about the past when I was a kid I definitely used to have like many favorite teachers and one of my favorite teachers was Mr. Rakesh who used to teach this accountant.

✓ However, if I talk about the past when I was a kid, I definitely had many favorite teachers, and one of them was Mr. Rakesh, who used to teach accounting.

Incorrect phrase 'used to have like many' is awkward; 'had' is correct for past possession and 'used to have' is redundant. 'this accountant' is incorrect; the correct noun is 'accounting' (the subject). Add commas for clarity. 'Like' is unnecessary filler.

× Well, yes, certainly I do, umm, aspire to become a teacher in my future because this is something I wanted from my childhood.

✓ Well, yes, I certainly aspire to become a teacher in the future because this is something I have wanted since my childhood.

Use 'in the future' not 'in my future'. Prefer present simple 'aspire' without extra 'do'. For past desire continuing to present, use present perfect 'have wanted' and 'since' for a starting point.

× In fact, when I was young, I used to, uh, check notebooks of my friends, uh, just because I like the way teacher explained.

✓ In fact, when I was young, I used to check my friends' notebooks, just because I liked the way the teacher explained things.

Possessive form 'friends' notebooks' needed. Tense consistency: 'used to' requires past 'liked', not present 'like'. Add article 'the' before 'teacher' and 'things' for completeness.

× And umm, I always, you know, dreamt of uh, being a teacher because I think that I can explain things well.

✓ And I always dreamt of being a teacher because I thought I could explain things well.

Maintain past perspective: 'dreamt' is past, so follow with past 'thought' and 'could'. Mixing past and present is inconsistent. Remove fillers.

× In fact, I do have many teachers, uh, in my mind when I think of my favorite teachers, uh, one of them is Rakesh Sir, who goes to teachers accountant as I mentioned earlier.

✓ In fact, I do have many teachers in mind when I think of my favorites; one of them is Rakesh Sir, who taught accounting, as I mentioned earlier.

'Goes to teachers accountant' is incorrect. Use 'taught accounting'. 'In my mind' is acceptable but combine clauses and use semicolon or comma. Maintain past tense for 'taught'.

× Apart from that, umm, I think Vimla ma'am, umm, who used to teach us economics and uh, her view of teaching was also so great that I still admire her for that.

✓ Apart from that, I think Vimla ma'am, who used to teach us economics, had a teaching style that I still admire.

Sentence is wordy and awkward. 'Her view of teaching was also so great' is unnatural; rephrase to 'had a teaching style that I still admire.' Use past tense 'used to teach' and clean up redundancy.

× Well, unfortunately not umm, because I'm in Canada right now and uh, I don't know, I do not have any of my teachers contact numbers and uh, I believe none of my friends, uh, do at the moment.

✓ Well, unfortunately not, because I'm in Canada right now and I don't have any of my teachers' contact numbers, and I believe none of my friends do either at the moment.

Missing possessive apostrophe in 'teachers' contact numbers' should be 'teachers''. 'Do not' repeated; use contraction consistency. Add 'either' for negative agreement. Punctuation and redundancy cleaned.

× But yeah, when I plan to go back to India, then I must say that I'm planning to meet my teachers.

✓ But yeah, when I plan to go back to India, I intend to meet my teachers.

Avoid repetition 'plan' and 'planning'. Use 'intend to' or 'plan to' once. Remove unnecessary 'then I must say that'.

× Well, regarding this question, I think it is extremely difficult for me to explain because, umm, there are literally uncountable ways in which they helped me out.

✓ Regarding this question, I find it extremely difficult to explain because there are countless ways in which they helped me.

'Literally uncountable' is incorrect; use 'countless'. Simplify structure and remove redundant 'for me' and 'out'. Use present simple 'find' for current opinion.

× Uh, for example, I still remember that I was very, I used to be very nervous when I was a kid and umm, one of my teacher, Urmila mam, she literally, uh, you know, took that fear out of me and she explained to me very well that, uh, why?

✓ For example, I still remember that I used to be very nervous when I was a kid, and one of my teachers, Urmila ma'am, literally took that fear out of me and explained to me very well why.

Use plural 'teachers' when referring to one among many. 'Ma'am' spelling and punctuation fixed. Remove filler words and redundant pronouns 'she'. Move 'why' into clause without question mark; sentence is a statement.

× Well, I would say that I love my secondary school teachers more as compared to my primary teachers because I think that I was really young when I I was in my primary school and I kind of didn't develop any kind of bonding with them.

✓ I would say that I loved my secondary school teachers more than my primary school teachers because I was very young when I was in primary school and didn't develop a strong bond with them.

Use 'more than' not 'more as compared to'. Tense consistency: referring to past should use 'loved' and past descriptions. Remove duplicate 'I'. Use 'bond' or 'relationship' instead of 'bonding' with 'develop'.

× However, when I was in my senior secondary school, then I used to talk to a lot of teachers and I got to know that.

✓ However, when I was in senior secondary school, I used to talk to many teachers and got to know them better.

Remove unnecessary 'then'. 'A lot of' can be replaced by 'many'. 'Got to know that' is incomplete—specify 'got to know them better.' Maintain past tense.
