Part 1

Examiner

Did you do puzzles in your childhood?

Candidate

Yes, I did hear puzzles in my childhood. I was curious about solving puzzles like maths puzzles. Sometimes I read about number. It was interesting because I find it's uh, it improved my thinking ideas about how can I improve my level of any solving situation.

Examiner

When do you do puzzles, during your trip or when you feel bored?

Candidate

Usually I read I do puzzle when I'm get getting bored because I'm a student and uh, after a long study I try something new to relieve stress and umm, this is the time I try some new puzzles and I try to do some puzzles, uh, related to my study.

Examiner

Do you like doing word puzzles or number puzzles? Which is more difficult for you?

Candidate

Umm, I see both are difficult but I think uh, like uh number puzzle are more difficult because of there are many type of numbers and I have to calculate for a long bit rather than the word puzzle because I can guess the word easily rather than the number.

Examiner

Do you think it is good for old people to do puzzles?

Candidate

Yeah, it's very good for old people because sometimes they don't have any person or any mate to spend their time with. So they can sit there in any chair or anything and try to figure out the puzzles they are working on. It's very good for their health. Also it's very reliable for their mental health.

Grammar

Past tense issue

× Yes, I did hear puzzles in my childhood.

Yes, I did puzzles in my childhood.

The verb 'hear' is incorrect here; the student likely meant 'do' puzzles. Also, 'did' already indicates past tense, so 'did hear' is incorrect. The correct phrase is 'did puzzles' or better 'did puzzles' or 'did puzzle activities'.

Singular and plural issue

× Sometimes I read about number.

Sometimes I read about numbers.

The noun 'number' should be plural 'numbers' because it refers to multiple instances or types of numbers, not just one.

Sentence structure errors

× It was interesting because I find it's uh, it improved my thinking ideas about how can I improve my level of any solving situation.

It was interesting because I found it improved my thinking about how I can improve my problem-solving skills.

The sentence is awkward and ungrammatical. 'I find it's uh, it improved' mixes tenses and subjects. 'Thinking ideas' is incorrect; 'thinking' alone suffices. 'Any solving situation' is unclear; 'problem-solving skills' is clearer.

Present tense issue

× Usually I read I do puzzle when I'm get getting bored because I'm a student and uh, after a long study I try something new to relieve stress and umm, this is the time I try some new puzzles and I try to do some puzzles, uh, related to my study.

Usually I do puzzles when I get bored because I'm a student and after a long study session I try something new to relieve stress. This is the time I try some new puzzles related to my study.

The phrase 'I read I do puzzle' is incorrect; 'I do puzzles' is correct. 'I'm get getting bored' is ungrammatical; correct is 'I get bored'. The sentence is long and repetitive; splitting improves clarity.

Singular and plural issue

× I see both are difficult but I think uh, like uh number puzzle are more difficult because of there are many type of numbers and I have to calculate for a long bit rather than the word puzzle because I can guess the word easily rather than the number.

I see both are difficult but I think number puzzles are more difficult because there are many types of numbers and I have to calculate for a long time rather than word puzzles because I can guess the words more easily than the numbers.

'Number puzzle' should be plural 'number puzzles' to agree with 'both'. 'There are many type' should be 'there are many types'. 'Word puzzle' should be plural 'word puzzles' for parallelism. 'For a long bit' is informal; 'for a long time' is better.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× Yeah, it's very good for old people because sometimes they don't have any person or any mate to spend their time with.

Yeah, it's very good for old people because sometimes they don't have anyone or any companion to spend their time with.

'Any person' is unnatural; 'anyone' is better. 'Any mate' is informal and unclear; 'companion' or 'friend' is more appropriate.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× So they can sit there in any chair or anything and try to figure out the puzzles they are working on.

So they can sit on any chair or anywhere and try to figure out the puzzles they are working on.

The preposition 'in' is incorrect with 'chair'; correct is 'sit on a chair'. 'There' is unnecessary and confusing here; 'anywhere' is clearer.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× It's very good for their health. Also it's very reliable for their mental health.

It's very good for their health. Also, it's very beneficial for their mental health.

'Reliable' is incorrect here; it means trustworthy, not helpful. 'Beneficial' is the correct adjective to describe something good for health.
