Are there any rules for students at your school?
Candidate
There are many rules in our school and most of the students found this find this challenging actually and but we need to just keep up with it because if you don't, we there are some punishments about not like listening and not.
Examiner
Do you think students would benefit more from more rules?
Candidate
From my perspective, no, because if there is more rules and the students intend to break them more, because I think they, the people's inner selves are controlled by the emotions and when there is more rules, I think they are just able to break them freely.
Examiner

Candidate
A Not in high school or middle school, but I had one uh teacher when I was in UH, my, in my hometown and I was in the curious and my uh music teacher was really strict and dedicated and uh, she taught me lots of things and I'm really appreciated about it and I do miss her.
Examiner
Do you prefer to have more or fewer rules at school?
Candidate
I prefer to have fewer rules in our school because some of the rules are just abnormal because they don't let us to wear some specific colors like for instance pink or even green. And I think it's just nonsense because how how do my color of my clothes?

Umm, actually no, but I wish I had one because umm, in the future when you are working, when you're in the uh, office working under some authority, they will be really strict and you need to get used to this, umm, like behaviors. But umm, I think I will experience.

Are there any rules for students at your school?
Score: 48.0Suggestion: Be direct and concise. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific details using linking words. Avoid repetition and fill words. Correct grammar (verb forms, articles) and finish the thought clearly.
Example: Yes, there are many rules at my school. For example, students must wear uniforms and be in class on time; if they break these rules, they can receive detention. These regulations aim to keep order and help everyone focus on learning.
Do you think students would benefit more from more rules?
Score: 42.0Suggestion: Give a clear opinion first, then support it with a simple, logical reason and a short example. Use correct grammar and linking words like 'because' or 'for example'. Avoid vague phrases like 'inner selves'.
Example: No, I don't think more rules would help. Because too many rules can make students feel restricted and lead to resentment; for example, when schools ban certain hobbies, students may rebel instead of cooperating.
Have you ever had a really dedicated teacher?
Score: 55.0Suggestion: Answer directly, correct word choice and tense, and give one or two specific examples of what the teacher did to show dedication. Reduce hesitation words and keep it within 3–4 sentences.
Example: Yes. Not in high school, but my music teacher in my hometown university was very dedicated. She spent extra time after class helping me improve technique and organized concerts for students, which helped me gain confidence.
Do you prefer to have more or fewer rules at school?
Score: 50.0Suggestion: State your preference clearly, then give one or two specific reasons and an example. Use correct phrasing ('don't allow us to wear') and avoid repetition. Keep sentences short and coherent with linking words like 'because' and 'for example'.
Example: I prefer fewer rules because some are unnecessary. For example, banning certain clothing colors seems unreasonable and doesn't affect learning, so it only frustrates students.
Have you ever had a really strict teacher?
Score: 45.0Suggestion: Give a direct answer then explain clearly why you would like a strict teacher, using one concrete reason and an example. Reduce hesitations and make grammar consistent (use 'you' vs 'I' carefully).
Example: No, I haven't had a very strict teacher, but I would welcome one. A strict teacher could prepare me for workplace discipline; for example, learning to meet deadlines in class would help me handle office expectations later.
Would you like to work as a teacher in a rule-free school?
Score: 48.0Suggestion: Answer clearly and support with a concise reason and a short example. Improve sentence structure and avoid redundancy. Use linking words like 'because' and 'for example' and finish the sentence ('I wouldn't want to').
Example: No, I wouldn't want to teach in a rule-free school because it would be hard to manage students. For example, without rules, students might arrive late or disrupt lessons, making it difficult to teach effectively.
× There are many rules in our school and most of the students found this find this challenging actually and but we need to just keep up with it because if you don't, we there are some punishments about not like listening and not.
✓ There are many rules in our school, and most students find this challenging. However, we need to follow them because if you don't, there are punishments for not listening.
Errors: subject-verb agreement ('most of the students found' should be present 'most students find' to match context), redundancy ('found this find this' repeated), incorrect word order and extra fillers, and incorrect preposition/phrase 'punishments about not like listening'. Suggestions: Use present simple to describe general facts, remove duplicate words and unnecessary fillers, change 'punishments about not like listening' to 'punishments for not listening', and simplify sentence structure into two clearer sentences.
× From my perspective, no, because if there is more rules and the students intend to break them more, because I think they, the people's inner selves are controlled by the emotions and when there is more rules, I think they are just able to break them freely.
✓ From my perspective, no, because if there are more rules, students will be more inclined to break them. I think people's inner selves are controlled by emotions, and when there are more rules, they may feel freer to break them.
Errors: incorrect subject-verb agreement and article usage ('if there is more rules' should be 'if there are more rules'), awkward modal/tense ('intend to break them more' better as 'will be more inclined to break them'), and vague phrasing. Suggestions: Use 'there are' for plural 'rules', replace 'intend' with 'will be inclined' or 'are more likely', and split into two sentences for clarity.
× A Not in high school or middle school, but I had one uh teacher when I was in UH, my, in my hometown and I was in the curious and my uh music teacher was really strict and dedicated and uh, she taught me lots of things and I'm really appreciated about it and I do miss her.
✓ Not in high school or middle school, but I had a teacher when I was in university in my hometown. My music teacher was really strict and dedicated; she taught me many things, and I really appreciate that. I do miss her.
Errors: unnecessary article/letter 'A' at start, awkward tense and word choice ('I was in UH, my, in my hometown and I was in the curious' unclear), incorrect phrasing 'I'm really appreciated about it' (passive/incorrect form). Suggestions: Remove stray characters, replace 'UH' with 'university' if intended, use clear sequence: 'I had a teacher when I was at university in my hometown.' Use active 'I really appreciate that' instead of passive 'I'm appreciated about it' and split into concise sentences.
× I prefer to have fewer rules in our school because some of the rules are just abnormal because they don't let us to wear some specific colors like for instance pink or even green.
✓ I prefer fewer rules at our school because some rules are unreasonable; for example, they don't allow us to wear certain colors, such as pink or green.
Errors: incorrect preposition ('in our school' better 'at our school'), infinitive error ('don't let us to wear' should be 'don't allow us to wear'), word choice ('abnormal' inappropriate; use 'unreasonable'), and redundancy. Suggestions: Use 'allow' not 'let ... to', prefer 'at school' for location, and give a clear example with 'for example' or 'such as'.
× And I think it's just nonsense because how how do my color of my clothes?
✓ I think it's nonsense because how does the color of my clothes affect anything?
Errors: sentence fragment, repeated word 'how how', incorrect word order ('how do my color of my clothes' should be 'how does the color of my clothes'), singular/plural agreement ('color' with 'does'). Suggestions: Remove repetition, form a full question with auxiliary 'does', and clarify intended meaning: 'how does the color of my clothes affect anything?'
× Umm, actually no, but I wish I had one because umm, in the future when you are working, when you're in the uh, office working under some authority, they will be really strict and you need to get used to this, umm, like behaviors.
✓ Actually, no, but I wish I had one because in the future, when you are working in an office under some authority, they may be strict and you need to get used to those behaviors.
Errors: awkward article and plural reference ('this, umm, like behaviors' incorrect), inconsistent tense/modal ('will be really strict' better 'may be strict' to express possibility), and wordiness. Suggestions: Use 'may' for possibility, 'those behaviors' or 'that behavior' for reference, and simplify phrasing.
× But umm, I think I will experience.
✓ But I think I will experience that in the future.
Errors: sentence fragment lacking object; 'experience' needs an object. Suggestions: Add the object 'that' or specify what will be experienced: 'I will experience that in the future' or 'I will experience strict management in the future.' Use complete clause.
× No, although there's a quite a big population of students who once a rule free school, it would be really hard for the teachers because these students will intend to do everything they want because there is no rules and this would be really difficult for the teachers and I wouldn't.
✓ No. Although there is quite a large number of students who want a rule-free school, it would be very hard for teachers because those students would try to do whatever they want if there are no rules. That would make teaching very difficult, and I wouldn't want to teach in such a school.
Errors: wrong contraction/phrase ('there's a quite a big population' -> 'there is quite a large number'), wrong verb 'once' should be 'want', missing hyphen 'rule-free', subject-verb agreement ('there is no rules' -> 'there are no rules'), incomplete sentence ending 'and I wouldn't.' Suggestions: Use 'want' for desire, 'rule-free' hyphenated adjective, maintain agreement with plural 'rules', and finish the final clause 'I wouldn't want to teach in such a school.' Keep sentences clear and complete.
