Do you have a favorite teacher?
Điểm: 78.0Gợi ý: 回答は明確で内容も良いですが、表現の自然さと簡潔さ、語彙のバリエーションを改善してください。例えば“the supervisor of my university”は不自然なので“my university supervisor”や“my thesis supervisor”とする、現在形と過去形の混同に注意する(He has → He had)、およびSupporting detailをつなぐ接続表現(For example, Because of this, As a result)を加えるとよいです。さらに短くまとめることで冗長さを避け、最大5文以内を守ってください。
Ví dụ: Yes. My university supervisor was the most impressive teacher I had. He had deep knowledge in his field, and he often encouraged us to think independently. As a result, I became more confident in tackling difficult problems.
Do you want to be a teacher in the future?
Điểm: 42.0Gợi ý: 内容が曖昧で論理のつながりが不明確です。“you have a chance”は質問に対する自然な返答ではなく、例や理由の説明も意味をなしていません。過去の経験を使って将来の意向を説明する際は、具体的な活動(e.g., teaching practice, volunteering)とその結果として得たスキルや感情を明確に述べてください。また文法や語順の誤り(walked at the Crown School, at a temperature)が多いので単純で正確な文を心がけ、接続詞(because, so, therefore)で理由をつなぎましょう。
Ví dụ: Yes, I would like to be a teacher. During university I volunteered at a local school where I taught basic English to younger students, and this experience made me realize I enjoy helping others learn. Therefore, I think I would be well suited to teaching in the future.
Do you have a teacher from your past that you still remember?
Điểm: 74.0Gợi ý: 良い回答ですが、繰り返し(the supervisor... most impressive / he had deep knowledge)や単語の重複(his his)が見られます。より自然にするために簡潔な表現と一貫した時制(過去形)を使ってください。加えて、なぜ印象に残っているのかを一つ具体例で示すと説得力が増します。接続語(for example, because, which)を入れて支援的な理由をつなぎましょう。
Ví dụ: Yes. My university supervisor was the teacher I remember most. He had deep knowledge of his field and often asked challenging questions, which pushed me to think more critically. For example, he once asked us to design an experiment with very limited resources, and that experience taught me creative problem-solving.
Are you still in touch with your primary school teachers?
Điểm: 70.0Gợi ý: 回答は明確でよいですが、語法と文法の誤り(catched up → caught up)、時制や語順の改善が必要です。また“about 20 years ago”が事実として非常に長い期間なので、具体的な詳細(who attended, what you talked about)を一文で付け加えると印象が良くなります。接続語(however, but)を適切に使い、文を簡潔にまとめてください。
Ví dụ: No, I'm not in touch with my primary school teachers now. However, we had a reunion about 20 years ago where many former students and teachers met and caught up, and I still remember sharing old stories and photos.
In what way has your favourite teacher helped you?
Điểm: 82.0Gợi ý: 内容が具体的で説得力がありますが、いくつかの文法と語彙の小さな問題を修正してください(a greater confidence to our ability → greater confidence in our abilities)。また、結びをもう一歩具体的にするために1つの具体例や結果(e.g., a skill you developed)を加えるとさらに良くなります。文を2〜3文に絞り、接続詞(but, therefore)を使って論理的につなげてください。
Ví dụ: My supervisor gave us very challenging assignments that often seemed impossible at first, but by completing them we developed problem-solving skills and became more confident in our abilities. As a result, I now approach difficult tasks calmly and break them down into manageable steps.
× The supervisor of my university was the most impressive teacher for me.
✓ The supervisor at my university was the most impressive teacher for me.
The preposition choice 'of my university' is awkward; use the article with the correct preposition 'at' to show affiliation. Use 'the supervisor at my university' to indicate the person who supervised students there.
× He has a deep knowledge in his academic field.
✓ He has deep knowledge in his academic field.
Use uncountable noun 'knowledge' without 'a'. 'Has a deep knowledge' is incorrect; say 'has deep knowledge' to express possession of expertise.
× he was good at encouraging students to think by themselves.
✓ he was good at encouraging students to think for themselves.
Use the fixed phrase 'think for themselves' instead of 'think by themselves'. The structure 'good at encouraging' is correct, but the prepositional phrase should be 'for themselves' to mean independent thinking.
× Yes, you have a chance.
✓ Yes, I do.
Question asked 'Do you want to be a teacher in the future?' Speaker answered with 'Yes, you have a chance.' which is grammatically odd and shifts person. Use 'Yes, I do.' to agree with the question or 'Yes, I have a chance' if meaning opportunity, but better 'Yes, I do.'.
× In fact, I walked at the Crown School at a temperature when I was a university student.
✓ In fact, I worked at the Crown School when I was a university student.
Likely 'walked' is a wrong verb; context implies employment. 'Walked at' is ungrammatical. Replace with 'worked at' and remove 'at a temperature' which is irrelevant and nonsensical here.
× From that experience, I believe I am well suited for the job.
✓ From that experience, I believe I am well suited to the job.
Use the correct preposition 'suited to' rather than 'suited for' in this context. Present tense 'believe' is fine.
× He had deep knowledge of his his field and in addition to that he was good at encouraging students to think.
✓ He had deep knowledge of his field and, in addition to that, he was good at encouraging students to think.
Remove duplicated 'his his'. Add commas around 'in addition to that' for clarity. 'Deep knowledge of his field' is correct.
× No, unfortunately I'm not in touch with my primary school teachers currently.
✓ No, unfortunately I'm not currently in touch with my primary school teachers.
Placement of adverb 'currently' is more natural before 'in touch' in this sentence. Tense 'am not' is present and appropriate; just reorder for natural English.
× we catched up and shared all the stories.
✓ we caught up and shared all the stories.
The past tense of 'catch' is 'caught', not 'catched'. Use 'caught up' for the phrasal verb meaning to update each other.
× which seemed almost impossible at first, but after overcoming them we realized how much we had grown and had a greater confidence to our ability.
✓ which seemed almost impossible at first, but after overcoming them we realized how much we had grown and had greater confidence in our ability.
Use 'greater confidence' without 'a' and the correct preposition 'in' with 'ability'. Also ensure 'our ability' matches plural subject. The verbs 'had grown' and 'realized' are fine.
