Teachers— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be more concise and clear. Start with a direct topic sentence, avoid fillers (umm), correct names consistently, and give one or two specific reasons with a linking word. Keep it within 3–4 sentences.

Ví dụ: Yes, I do — my favourite university teacher is Mr Watch Hoja. He stands out because he treats students with respect and is genuinely kind, unlike some other faculty members. For example, he always offers extra help after class, which made a big difference to my studies.

Gợi ý: Answer directly and explain briefly with clear reasons and linking words. Avoid vague phrases and fillers. Use correct vocabulary (e.g., ‘demanding’, ‘empathetic’) and provide a concrete example or consequence.

Ví dụ: No, I don't. I find teaching very demanding because it requires patience and emotional resilience. For example, teachers must understand students' needs and manage different personalities, which I don't feel prepared for.

Gợi ý: Begin with a clear topic sentence, reduce hesitations, and give specific details about why the teacher is memorable. Use linking words (for example, however, because) and correct grammar (e.g., ‘one in particular’, ‘which created unpleasant memories’).

Ví dụ: Yes, one teacher in particular still stands out. She was very strict and often criticized my work, which made me anxious in class. However, that experience taught me to be more resilient and to seek feedback elsewhere.

Gợi ý: Start with a direct answer, remove fillers, and use linking words to connect ideas. Be specific about how you keep in touch and give one short example of communication.

Ví dụ: Yes, I still keep in touch with my private English tutor by messaging her occasionally. As for my old school teachers, I follow them on Instagram and Facebook but I rarely contact them directly.

Gợi ý: Good content and specific example — tighten sentences, avoid hesitations, and add a linking phrase to show result. Keep it within 2–3 sentences for clarity.

Ví dụ: My favourite teacher helped me by writing a strong reference letter for a master's program in London, which led to an offer. He also recommended other universities and supported me throughout the entire application process.

Gợi ý: Answer directly, correct grammar (e.g., ‘pushed me’), remove fillers, and use a contrast linking word (however) effectively. Give one brief specific example of each to support your opinion.

Ví dụ: I generally prefer my primary school teachers because they were friendlier and more patient, which made learning enjoyable. However, some high school teachers were very knowledgeable and pushed me academically, for example by giving challenging projects that improved my skills.

× His name is Watch Umm.

✓ His name is Watch Umm.

No grammatical change needed but ensure pronoun 'His' correctly refers to the teacher; keep as is.

× He's my favorite teacher because I think umm the teachers are not quite respectful in the university and kind, but Watch Hoja is.

✓ He's my favorite teacher because many teachers at the university are not very respectful or kind, but Watch Hoja is.

Original sentence has awkward structure and redundancy ('the teachers are not quite respectful in the university and kind'). Reorder and choose parallel structure: 'not very respectful or kind' improves clarity. Use 'many teachers at the university' instead of 'the teachers in the university' for natural expression.

× No, because nowadays it's very demandful and you have to be very umm, strict and stable person to be a teacher.

✓ No, because nowadays teaching is in high demand and you have to be a very strict and stable person to be a teacher.

'Demandful' is not a correct word; use 'in high demand' or 'demanding'. Also article needed before 'very strict and stable person'. Maintain subject 'teaching' or 'the job' for clarity.

× Like umm, you have no psychology of the uh, students and all the other things.

✓ For example, you need to understand students' psychology and many other things.

'You have no psychology of the students' is ungrammatical. Use 'understand students' psychology' or 'have no understanding of students' psychology'. Also 'and all the other things' is vague; 'and many other things' is clearer.

× Yes, I remember many teachers from the past, but one is particular stands out because I had a difficult relationship with her.

✓ Yes, I remember many teachers from the past, but one in particular stands out because I had a difficult relationship with her.

Phrase 'one is particular stands out' is ungrammatical. Correct idiom is 'one in particular stands out'. This fixes word order and makes sentence grammatical.

× She was very umm, strict and not quite supportive because she often criticized me, which unpleasant memories.

✓ She was very strict and not very supportive because she often criticized me, which created unpleasant memories.

'Not quite supportive' is better as 'not very supportive'. The clause 'which unpleasant memories' is missing a verb; add 'created' or 'brought' to form 'which created unpleasant memories'.

× I still keep in touch with my uh, private English tutor, umm, but the other teachers I follow on social media, for example, uh, through Instagram or Facebook, but I don't communicate with them directly.

✓ I still keep in touch with my private English tutor, but I follow other teachers on social media, for example on Instagram or Facebook, and I don't communicate with them directly.

Sentence had run-on structure and repeated 'but'. Rearrange into two coordinated clauses: 'I still keep in touch...' and 'I follow other teachers...' Use 'on Instagram' rather than 'through Instagram' for natural phrasing.

× Recently, my university teacher, who is my favorite UH, wrote a reference letter for a master's program in London, and I received an offer as a result.

✓ Recently, my university teacher, who is my favorite, wrote a reference letter for a master's program in London, and I received an offer as a result.

Remove filler 'UH' and ensure 'my favorite' correctly modifies 'university teacher'. Otherwise sentence is grammatically correct.

× He also sent recommendations to other universities and supported me throughout the application process.

✓ He also sent recommendations to other universities and supported me throughout the application process.

Sentence is correct; preposition 'to other universities' and 'throughout the application process' are appropriate. No change needed.

× I prefer my primary school teachers because they were friendlier and more patient, which made learning enjoyable.

✓ I prefer my primary school teachers because they were friendlier and more patient, which made learning enjoyable.

Sentence is correct as written; pronoun 'they' clearly refers to 'primary school teachers' and no grammatical change is necessary.

× However, I also like some of high school teachers, uh who were very knowledgeable and push me academically.

✓ However, I also like some of my high school teachers, who were very knowledgeable and pushed me academically.

Missing possessive 'my' before 'high school teachers'. Verb tense error: 'push' should be past tense 'pushed' to match 'were'. Ensure subject-verb agreement and consistent past tense when referring to past teachers.

× So it really depends on the individual.

✓ So it really depends on the individual.

Sentence is grammatical and appropriate as a closing comment; no change needed.
