Teacher— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be more concise and directly answer the question with a clear topic sentence. Use correct tense and precise vocabulary, avoid repetition, and add one specific detail about why the teacher was your favourite. Keep your answer under five sentences and use linking words if adding details.

Exemplo: Yes, my favourite teacher was my secondary school chemistry teacher. He helped me prepare for an important public examination by giving clear explanations and extra practice problems, which improved my confidence and grades. Because of his patient tutoring and useful study tips, I was able to achieve a much better score.

Sugestão: Answer the question directly and avoid contradictory or unclear tense. Start with a clear yes/no, then provide one or two specific details using linking words (e.g., however, recently). Keep sentences concise and correct past/present forms.

Exemplo: No, I'm not currently in regular contact with my primary school teacher. However, I visited my old school once while I was in secondary school, and she was still teaching there; she was very happy to see me and we talked for a short time.

Sugestão: Provide a clear topic sentence describing the main way the teacher helped, then give a specific example with linking words (for example, for instance, because). Use correct grammar (past tense) and avoid filler words. Limit to up to five sentences.

Exemplo: My favourite teacher helped me by giving targeted exam strategies and extra practice. For example, during my final semester he provided weekly practice tests and reviewed common mistakes, which helped me improve my scores significantly.

Sugestão: Give a direct answer first, then briefly explain reasons using clear linking words (for example, because, although). Avoid hesitations and correct grammar (subject-verb agreement). Keep it concise and specific about why you would or would not choose teaching.

Exemplo: No, I don't want to be a teacher in the future because the job requires a lot of time and emotional energy. Although I respect teachers and value their work, I prefer a career that allows more flexible hours and different challenges.

× Yes I do. I still remember when I was studying for my secondary school, I have to prepare for a public examination and I took a chemistry class.

✓ Yes, I do. I still remember when I was studying in secondary school, I had to prepare for a public examination and I took a chemistry class.

The sentence mixes past continuous ('was studying') with present simple ('I have to prepare') incorrectly. The action of preparing occurred in the past, so 'have to' should be past 'had to' to match past context. Also 'for my secondary school' is awkward; 'in secondary school' is correct preposition use. Suggestion: Use consistent past tense for events that happened in the past: 'I was studying in secondary school, I had to prepare...'.

× I still remember my chemistry teacher was very clean to help me and I was very grateful that he helped me to get.

✓ I still remember my chemistry teacher was very kind to help me, and I was very grateful that he helped me succeed.

'clean' is the wrong adjective here; the intended meaning is likely 'kind' or 'willing'. Also the phrase 'helped me to get' is incomplete and ungrammatical; use 'helped me succeed' or 'helped me pass'. Suggestion: choose correct adjective ('kind', 'helpful') and complete the verb phrase ('helped me succeed'). This fits past context, so past tense 'was' and 'helped' are correct.

× No, I haven't. I keep in touch, uh, for my primary school teacher for a while, but I remember when I was studying in secondary school, I have the time to visit, uh, my primary school again and she was uh, working, still working in the same primary school and she was very happy to see me.

✓ No, I haven't. I kept in touch with my primary school teacher for a while, but I remember that when I was studying in secondary school, I had time to visit my primary school again, and she was still working there and was very happy to see me.

Pronoun and preposition errors: 'I haven't' is vague; context needs 'No, I haven't' to refer to 'Are you still in touch?'. The phrase 'I keep in touch, for my primary school teacher for a while' is ungrammatical: use 'kept in touch with my primary school teacher for a while'. 'I have the time' should be past 'I had time' to match past context. 'She was working, still working in the same primary school' is redundant; combine as 'she was still working there'. Suggestion: use correct preposition 'with' after 'keep/kept in touch', use past tense consistently, and replace redundant phrasing.

× Umm, for most of my teacher, they help me by, uh, help me to find ways to uh, get better score in public examination.

✓ Um, for most of my teachers, they help me by helping me find ways to get better scores in public examinations.

'Most of my teacher' is singular while meaning plural — should be 'most of my teachers'. Also 'help me by, uh, help me to find' doubles verbs; use 'helping me find'. 'Get better score' needs plural 'better scores' and 'public examination' should be plural or preceded by an article depending on meaning; 'public examinations' is clearer. Suggestion: ensure noun plurality matches ('teachers') and use gerund after 'by' ('by helping'). Tense present is acceptable here if referring to habitual help.

× I still remember that I when I study in the last semester in my secondary school, I have to do a lot of exercise.

✓ I still remember that when I was studying in the last semester of secondary school, I had to do a lot of exercises.

Mixed tenses and incorrect forms: 'when I study' should be past 'when I was studying' to match 'I still remember'. 'I have to do' should be past 'I had to do'. 'A lot of exercise' is better as plural 'a lot of exercises' or 'a lot of practice'. Suggestion: keep past tense for past memories and use correct noun number.

× Umm, this is a good question. I but I don't want to be a teacher, uh, in the future.

✓ Um, this is a good question, but I don't want to be a teacher in the future.

The sentence has an extra 'I' before 'but' causing ungrammatical structure. Remove the stray pronoun and join clauses with 'but'. Suggestion: combine clauses properly: 'This is a good question, but I don't want...'. Tense 'don't want' is appropriate for future intention.

× I know that being a teacher is very meaningful and, and given the chance that they can teach the students about the experiences and the things that they learnt.

✓ I know that being a teacher is very meaningful, and given the chance, teachers can teach students about their experiences and what they have learned.

Pronoun 'they' is unclear; replace with 'teachers'. 'The experiences and the things that they learnt' is wordy and mixes tenses; use 'their experiences' and present perfect 'have learned' for relevance to present. Suggestion: use clear subject 'teachers' and consistent tense 'have learned'.

× However, is very hard to become a teacher.

✓ However, it is very hard to become a teacher.

Missing subject 'it' causes sentence fragment; add 'it'. The verb 'is' is present and acceptable here because it's a general statement. Suggestion: include the dummy subject 'it' for impersonal expressions.
