Do you think students would benefit more from more rules?
Thí sinh
Yes, I absolutely think that Israel would get more benefits from more rules because it helps them to create a vibrant environment and discipline environment. But there also need to be more focused on studies because I saw some schools are more strict on rules but they don't pay enough attention to studies.

× Right now I'm not in school, but when I was in high school there are there were certain rules and for instance, we had to wear a uniform with white shirt and olive green pant, white shoes.
✓ Right now I'm not in school, but when I was in high school there were certain rules and for instance, we had to wear a uniform with a white shirt and olive green pants, white shoes.
The phrase 'there are there were' is incorrect; only 'there were' is needed to indicate past existence of rules. Also, 'white shirt' and 'olive green pant' need articles and plural form respectively: 'a white shirt' and 'olive green pants' because 'pants' is plural in English.
× And we have to be respectful to the teachers and be punctual.
✓ And we had to be respectful to the teachers and be punctual.
Since the context is past (when the student was in high school), the verb tense should be past 'had to' instead of present 'have to'. This is a tense issue but also relates to modal verb usage; however, as per instructions, only grammar problem types listed are corrected. Here, changing 'have to' to 'had to' aligns with past context.
× But there also need to be more focused on studies because I saw some schools are more strict on rules but they don't pay enough attention to studies.
✓ But there also needs to be more focus on studies because I saw some schools are stricter on rules but they don't pay enough attention to studies.
The phrase 'there also need to be' is incorrect; it should be 'there also needs to be' to agree with singular subject 'there'. Also, 'more focused on studies' should be 'more focus on studies' because 'need to be' is followed by base form or noun, not adjective here. Additionally, 'more strict' should be 'stricter' as comparative adjective.
× He explains his strategies so well that we don't have any problems to solve.
✓ He explained his strategies so well that we didn't have any problems to solve.
The context is past (when the student was in college), so verbs should be in past tense. 'Explains' should be 'explained' and 'don't have' should be 'didn't have' to maintain tense consistency.
× He solves the problem in the class.
✓ He solved the problems in the class.
Again, the context is past, so 'solves' should be 'solved'. Also, 'the problem' is better as 'the problems' to indicate multiple issues addressed in class, which is more natural here.
