Part 1
Examiner
How do you like geography?
Candidate
To me it's much more than just studying the maths and knowledge of country capitals. It's really interesting to explore the physical properties on Earth's surface and to study places and the relationships between people and their environment.
Examiner
Do you think geography is useful?
Candidate
Yes, I believe that geography is incredibly useful. It helps understanding the world around us. For example, it teaches us about different climates and ecosystems. And this knowledge is essential for things like, umm, Environmental Protection and disaster management.
Examiner
Have you ever learned geography?
Candidate
Yes, I learned geography in secondary school. We learnt about countries, cultures and how everything fits together. It was interesting and gave me a better understanding of what's happening globally. So geography was a part of my learning journey.
Examiner
Do you want to be a geography teacher?
Candidate
Not really, I prefer to study than teach geography to a other person or other persons because I believe that I not have any uh quality to be a teacher, especially geography teacher.
Examiner
Will you learn more about the geography of other countries?
Candidate
No, I have another uh plan for the future, so I would not learn anything about geography in the future because it will not help me too much in my field.

× It helps understanding the world around us.
✓ It helps us understand the world around us.
The verb 'help' is followed by the base form of the verb, not the '-ing' form. Therefore, 'helps understanding' is incorrect; it should be 'helps us understand'. (Động từ 'help' được theo sau bởi động từ nguyên mẫu, không phải dạng '-ing'. Vì vậy, 'helps understanding' là sai; nên dùng 'helps us understand'.)
× I prefer to study than teach geography to a other person or other persons because I believe that I not have any uh quality to be a teacher, especially geography teacher.
✓ I prefer to study rather than teach geography to another person or other people because I believe that I do not have any quality to be a teacher, especially a geography teacher.
The phrase 'a other person' is incorrect; it should be 'another person'. Also, 'other persons' is better expressed as 'other people'. The negative form 'I not have' is incorrect; it should be 'I do not have'. Articles are missing before 'quality' and 'geography teacher'. (Cụm từ 'a other person' sai, phải là 'another person'. 'Other persons' nên dùng 'other people'. Cấu trúc phủ định 'I not have' sai, phải là 'I do not have'. Thiếu mạo từ trước 'quality' và 'geography teacher'.)
× No, I have another uh plan for the future, so I would not learn anything about geography in the future because it will not help me too much in my field.
✓ No, I have another plan for the future, so I will not learn anything about geography in the future because it will not help me much in my field.
The use of 'would not learn' is incorrect for a definite future plan; 'will not learn' is appropriate. Also, 'too much' is unnecessary here; 'much' suffices. (Cách dùng 'would not learn' không đúng cho kế hoạch tương lai chắc chắn; nên dùng 'will not learn'. 'Too much' không cần thiết ở đây; chỉ cần 'much'.)
