× My favorite teacher is a chemistry teacher because chemistry teacher is, uh, very good, very good experience in chemistry.
✓ My favorite teacher is a chemistry teacher because the chemistry teacher has very good experience in chemistry.
The student omitted the definite article 'the' before 'chemistry teacher' and used an incorrect adjective phrase 'very good experience' without a verb. Use 'the' to refer to a specific teacher and 'has' to show possession of experience. Suggestion: include 'the' and use 'has' before 'very good experience'.
× He's very, uh, best chemist and uh, it is, uh, very polite and uh, uh, nice teacher.
✓ He is a very good chemist and a very polite and nice teacher.
Mixed and incorrect pronouns 'he' and 'it' were used and articles are missing. Use 'he' consistently for a male teacher, include the indefinite article 'a', and use adjectives in correct order. Suggestion: use 'he is a' and place adjectives correctly.
× No, I don't want because teacher is very hard work but no output because he's he's.
✓ No, I don't want to because teaching is very hard work and there is little output.
The student omitted 'to' after 'want' and used 'teacher is' incorrectly; the intended noun is 'teaching' (gerund) as the activity. Also 'no output' is better expressed as 'little output' or 'there is little output'. Suggestion: use 'want to' + verb or 'don't want to be a teacher' and use 'teaching' for the occupation.
× Salary is very low and working is very hard, but salary is very low.
✓ The salary is very low and the work is very hard.
Articles are needed before 'salary' and 'work'. Repetition removed. Use 'the salary' when referring to the general pay and 'the work' to refer to the job's difficulty. Suggestion: add 'the' and avoid unnecessary repetition.
× Average salary.
✓ The salary is average.
Sentence fragment lacking subject and verb. Add subject 'The salary' and verb 'is' to form a complete sentence. Suggestion: avoid fragments by including a subject and verb.
× Yes, yes, I remember my computer teacher. It is very nice teacher she's female teacher and but it is very nice, polite and helpful and steady.
✓ Yes, I remember my computer teacher. She is a very nice, polite, helpful, and calm female teacher.
The student used 'it' for a person; use 'she'. Articles missing before 'very nice teacher' and 'female teacher'. 'Steady' is awkward; 'calm' or 'steady' as 'calm' fits better. Suggestion: use correct personal pronoun and include articles, and choose appropriate adjective.
× She have lot of experience and very good in computer study I.
✓ She has a lot of experience and is very good in computer studies.
Subject-verb agreement: use 'has' with singular 'she' not 'have'. Also include the article 'a' before 'lot' and correct word order: 'is very good in computer studies'. The fragment 'I' at the end is misplaced and removed. Suggestion: ensure verb matches subject and keep natural adjective order.
× Yes, some teacher I attach in primary school, but lot of yes, some teachers in my touch but both are not touch.
✓ Yes, some teachers I am still in touch with from primary school, but many are not.
Incorrect singular/plural forms and awkward phrasing 'I attach' and 'in my touch'. Use 'teachers' plural, 'I am still in touch with' to show continued contact, and 'many are not' to indicate others are not in contact. Suggestion: use correct plural nouns and the idiom 'in touch with'.
× Some little teacher are in touch.
✓ Some younger teachers are in touch.
'Some little teacher' is incorrect: 'little' is not used for people; use 'young' or 'younger' and make the noun plural 'teachers'. Also correct subject-verb agreement 'are'. Suggestion: use appropriate adjective for people and plural nouns.
× Uh, it helped in my studies, my homework study and lot of other things, uh, like concepts in computer information technology and, uh, some other concepts.
✓ She helped me with my studies, my homework, and many other things, such as concepts in computer information technology and other topics.
Using 'it' for a person is incorrect; use 'she'. Also the verb 'helped' is correct past tense but needs an object 'me'. 'lot' needs 'many' or 'a lot of'. Reorder for clarity. Suggestion: use correct pronoun, include object, and use natural quantifiers and conjunctions.
