For the first thirteen years of education I studied in Hong Kong and then after that I went to Canada to complete my high school and university.
考官
Is it a good place to study?

It is a good place to study. There are many facilities for students. For example, they have 24 hours library. That means if you want to study overnight, you can stay there and no one will tell you to leave.

Would you like the place where you study to make any changes?
考生
No, I wouldn't. I'm very satisfied with the place I studied. For example, they have cafeterias where it has many varieties of food and.

Do you work or are you a student?
分數: 85.0建議: Your answer is clear and directly addresses the question with a topic sentence and a concise supporting detail. To improve, make the response slightly more natural by contracting and varying sentence structure, and avoid repeating obvious information (e.g., "students" twice). Add a brief linking phrase to show enthusiasm or purpose.
範例: I'm a full-time English teacher at a primary school, teaching children aged six to eleven. I really enjoy helping them build basic language skills and confidence, so most of my lessons focus on speaking and games.
Where do you study?
分數: 78.0建議: The answer gives a clear timeline and directly answers the question, but it is slightly long and could be more natural with smoother linking words and contractions. Also avoid the passive-sounding "for the first thirteen years of education" — be specific and concise.
範例: I grew up and did my primary and secondary education in Hong Kong for thirteen years. After that, I moved to Canada to finish high school and then went on to university there.
Is it a good place to study?
分數: 72.0建議: You answer the question directly and provide a relevant example, but some language is slightly awkward ("24 hours library") and there is minor redundancy. Use linking words to connect ideas and correct collocations ("a 24-hour library"). Add one more specific benefit to strengthen your point.
範例: Yes, it's a great place to study. For instance, they have a 24-hour library, so students can work late into the night, and there are numerous study rooms and computer labs that support group projects.
Would you like the place where you study to make any changes?
分數: 60.0建議: Your answer is understandable but incomplete and slightly repetitive. Avoid trailing sentences and grammatical errors ("where it has many varieties"). If you disagree with changes, briefly explain why and give one or two specific reasons, using a linking word to make it coherent.
範例: No, I wouldn't — I'm very satisfied with it because the campus provides good facilities. For example, the cafeterias offer a wide variety of affordable food, and the student services are very helpful.
What are your future study plans?
分數: 50.0建議: The answer begins well but ends unfinished and therefore fails to fully communicate your plan. Complete the sentence with a clear purpose and avoid redundancy ("Master of English" → "a master's in English" or "an MA in English"), and use a linking phrase for intention ("so that I can...").
範例: At the moment I'm taking an English Language Teaching course at Metropolitan University. After I graduate, I plan to do a one-year master's in English so that I can advance my teaching qualifications and work at a higher level in schools.
× I am a full time English teacher in a primary school.
✓ I am a full-time English teacher at a primary school.
Use the hyphenated compound adjective 'full-time' before the noun. Use 'at' for places of work or institutions rather than 'in' for a general statement about employment at a school. Also 'a primary school' is correct; change 'in' to 'at' for natural usage.
× I teach students from age 6 to 11.
✓ I teach students aged 6 to 11.
Use the adjective form 'aged' rather than 'from age'. The plural 'students' is fine; the original phrase is non-idiomatic. 'Aged 6 to 11' is the natural collocation to describe students' ages.
× Where do you study?
✓ Where did you study?
The examiner asked about past education; the student studied in the past. Use past tense 'did' to match the time frame. The original present tense 'do' creates a mismatch with the student's answer describing past study.
× For the first thirteen years of education I studied in Hong Kong and then after that I went to Canada to complete my high school and university.
✓ For the first thirteen years of my education I studied in Hong Kong, and after that I went to Canada to complete high school and university.
Add 'my' before 'education' for natural possession. Use a comma before 'and' to connect clauses. Omit 'the' before 'high school' and 'university' when speaking generally about completing those stages; 'complete high school and university' is idiomatic.
× It is a good place to study.
✓ It is a good place to study.
Sentence is correct; no change needed. Included for completeness.
× There are many facilities for students.
✓ There are many facilities for students.
Sentence is correct and idiomatic; no change needed. Included to indicate no preposition error.
× For example, they have 24 hours library.
✓ For example, they have a 24-hour library.
Use the indefinite article 'a' before '24-hour library' and hyphenate '24-hour' as a compound adjective. Also use singular 'library' with the article.
× That means if you want to study overnight, you can stay there and no one will tell you to leave.
✓ That means if you want to study overnight, you can stay there and no one will tell you to leave.
Sentence is grammatically fine; no change needed. Included to show structure is acceptable.
× No, I wouldn't.
✓ No, I wouldn't.
This response is appropriate and grammatically correct for expressing a negative hypothetical or preference; no change needed.
× I'm very satisfied with the place I studied.
✓ I'm very satisfied with the place where I studied.
Add 'where' to clarify the relative clause referring to the place. Maintaining present 'I'm' is fine because satisfaction is current, while 'studied' remains past to refer to past study.
× For example, they have cafeterias where it has many varieties of food and.
✓ For example, they have cafeterias that offer many varieties of food.
Replace the incorrect clause 'where it has' with 'that offer' to match the plural noun 'cafeterias'. Remove the trailing 'and.' Use 'offer' as the verb for 'cafeterias' rather than the dummy 'it has'.
× What are your future study plans?
✓ What are your future study plans?
Question is correct; no change needed.
× Currently, I am doing a course at Metropolitan University called English Language Teaching.
✓ Currently, I am taking a course at Metropolitan University called English Language Teaching.
Use 'taking' or 'doing' is possible, but 'taking a course' is more natural in this context. 'Doing a course' is non-standard in some varieties of English; 'taking' is widely accepted.
× After I graduate, I plan to study one more year for Master of English so that I can.
✓ After I graduate, I plan to study for one more year for a Master of English so that I can complete my degree.
Add the article 'a' before 'Master of English' and include an object or purpose after 'so that I can' to complete the sentence. Also reposition 'for one more year' to 'study for one more year' for correct verb-object order. Provide a clear verb 'complete my degree' to finish the thought.
