Music— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be more direct and natural: start with a clear topic sentence, correct tense and article use, and give one or two specific reasons with linking words. Reduce repetition and keep answers under five sentences.

Exemplo: I prefer happy music. It lifts my mood and makes me want to dance, so I listen to it when I need energy. For example, upbeat pop songs help me feel more motivated when I’m exercising.

Sugestão: Avoid filler words and repetition. Give a clear topic sentence, then one concrete detail or short example, using linking words (for example, because) to connect ideas.

Exemplo: Yes, it definitely does because the rhythm and melody energize me. For example, when I hear an upbeat song on my way to work, I start tapping my feet and feel happier the whole day.

Sugestão: Answer directly, correct grammar (use present perfect or simple present appropriately), and provide a concise follow-up with a specific detail about your ukulele practice. Limit to three sentences.

Exemplo: No, I haven’t taken formal music classes, but I can play the ukulele. I practice a few times a week and often learn songs from online tutorials, which helps me relax and enjoy music more.

Sugestão: Be concise and avoid ungrammatical phrases. State your position, give a clear reason, and a short example. Use linking words like because or for example, and correct verb forms and articles.

Exemplo: Yes, I often listen to music while working because it helps me concentrate and stay motivated. For example, I play instrumental tracks when I solve math problems because they reduce distractions and help me focus.

× So I preferred a happy music because it makes me so much excitement and gives me curiosity and I can dance with the with this of happy music.

✓ So I prefer happy music because it makes me very excited, makes me curious, and I can dance to this kind of happy music.

The student used past tense 'preferred' but is describing a general preference, so present simple 'prefer' is needed (Problem ID 6). 'a happy music' is incorrect article usage and count noun problem; 'music' is uncountable so use no article and say 'happy music' (Problem ID 22). 'so much excitement' should be 'very excited' to describe the person's feeling (incorrect use of adjectives/adverbs, Problem ID 13). 'gives me curiosity' is unnatural; use 'makes me curious' (Problem ID 13). 'dance with the with this of happy music' is incorrect preposition and structure; use 'dance to this kind of happy music' (preposition error, Problem ID 11). Suggested improvements: use present simple for general statements, avoid unnecessary articles with uncountable nouns, use adjective forms for emotions, and use 'dance to' for music.

× Yes, of course. Like whenever I hear some happy music I always love to dancing.

✓ Yes, of course. Whenever I hear happy music I always love to dance.

The speaker used 'love to dancing' which mixes 'to' with a gerund; after 'love' use the base form or gerund consistently. Here 'love to dance' or 'love dancing' are correct (Problem ID 6 and 8). Also 'some happy music' can be simplified to 'happy music' (article/quantifier issue, Problem ID 22). Suggested improvement: choose 'love to dance' or 'love dancing' and keep tense present simple for habitual actions.

× Like I can't stop dancing because it makes me so much excitement and yeah and I also in in my good mood if I hear any kind of happy music.

✓ I can't stop dancing because it makes me very excited, and I'm also in a good mood if I hear any kind of happy music.

The phrase 'makes me so much excitement' uses a noun where an adjective describing the person is needed; use 'makes me very excited' (Problem ID 13). 'I also in in my good mood' lacks a verb and has article errors; correct to 'I'm also in a good mood' (sentence structure/verb missing, Problem ID 23 and article error ID 22). Suggested improvement: use 'very excited' for feelings and include the verb 'am' for states.

× No, right now I don't have take any uh, music classes, uh, but I know the how to play ukulele.

✓ No, right now I haven't taken any music classes, but I know how to play the ukulele.

The student wrote 'don't have take', which is ungrammatical; the present perfect 'haven't taken' is appropriate for experience up to now (Problem ID 5). 'the how to play ukulele' has unnecessary article and word order issues; use 'know how to play the ukulele' and include the definite article with instrument names optionally 'the ukulele' (article problem ID 17/22). Suggested improvement: use present perfect for past experiences with present relevance and correct word order for 'know how to...'.

× So sometimes when I have some time, I always play ukulele and I play a song there and I also love to dance, uh, with the, uh, music.

✓ Sometimes when I have time, I always play the ukulele and play a song, and I also love to dance to the music.

'play ukulele' should be 'play the ukulele' or 'play ukulele' is acceptable in some varieties but using 'the ukulele' is more natural here (article error, Problem ID 22). 'play a song there' - 'there' is unnecessary; remove it for clarity (sentence structure, Problem ID 26). 'dance with the music' is better as 'dance to the music' (preposition error, Problem ID 11). Suggested improvement: remove filler words, use correct preposition 'to' with music, and include 'the' before instruments when appropriate.

× So yeah, it gives me so much excitement.

✓ So yeah, it gives me a lot of excitement.

'so much excitement' is not wrong in all contexts but 'a lot of excitement' is more natural. If describing personal feeling, 'it makes me very excited' is better (Problem ID 6 and 13). Suggested improvement: prefer 'makes me very excited' for feelings or 'gives me a lot of excitement' for a noun form.

× Yes, I listen to music while doing other things because I think that if I listen the music, the minds getting sharp and the problem solving skill getting so much better.

✓ Yes, I listen to music while doing other things because I think that if I listen to music, my mind gets sharper and my problem-solving skills get much better.

'listen the music' should be 'listen to music' (preposition error, Problem ID 11). 'the minds getting sharp' lacks auxiliary and uses wrong article and pluralization: use 'my mind gets sharper' (possessive pronoun error and verb tense, Problem IDs 12 and 6). 'the problem solving skill getting so much better' needs plural and auxiliary: 'my problem-solving skills get much better' (quantifier/adjective and verb issues, Problem IDs 14 and 6). Suggested improvement: use 'listen to', include possessive pronouns for personal states, use correct verb forms 'gets' for present simple, and pluralize 'skills' when general.

× So that's why whenever I do any kind of maths problem or any kind of problem, something problem, I always preferred I listen to music.

✓ So that's why whenever I do any kind of math problem, I always prefer to listen to music.

The student used 'preferred' (past) but should use present simple 'prefer' for habitual action (Problem ID 6). 'I always preferred I listen to music' is ungrammatical; correct structure is 'I always prefer to listen to music' or 'I always listen to music' (sentence structure error, Problem ID 26). 'maths' can be 'math' or 'maths' depending on variety; keep consistent. Suggested improvement: use present simple for routines and the infinitive 'prefer to do' after 'prefer'.
