Part 1
Examiner
Are there any rules for students at your school?
Candidate
Actually, I guess there aren't any rules at my university, but of course students need to follow Japanese laws so they can't commit crimes or attack other people on campus.
Examiner
Do you think students would benefit more from more rules?
Candidate
I don't think so because uh, rules are usually something which, uh, strict people and uh, ban them from doing anything, doing something. So I feel like, uh, the number of rules.
Examiner
Have you ever had a really dedicated teacher?
Candidate
Yes, I have. Uh, one example is uh, Mr. Kubota, who was my homeroom teacher in my 4th year at uh, primary school. Uh, one day I really didn't want to go to school and I decided to stay at home, but surprisingly he came to my home and.
Examiner
Do you prefer to have more or fewer rules at school?
Candidate
Uh, I definitely prefer having fewer rules at school because I feel like rules can, uh, restrict uh, students freedom to enjoy their university life in their own way. So yeah, I want to see.
Examiner
Have you ever had a really strict teacher?
Candidate
Actually, I haven't, but I remember some of my teachers were a little bit strict. For example, when I was in my third year at junior high school, a teacher he.
Examiner
Would you like to work as a teacher in a rule-free school?
Candidate
Hmm, I want to say I would like to work as a teacher in a roughly school, but actually in a realistic way. I feel like it's a little bit tough for me because in the roof risk call students can really enjoy what they want today, what want they want to do so.
Are there any rules for students at your school?
Score: 70.0Suggestion: 回答は概ね明確ですが、表現がやや曖昧で冗長な部分("I guess" や "of course")があります。より直接的なトピックセンテンスを使い、具体的な例(例えば、出席、服装、キャンパスマナーなど)を1〜2つ挙げてください。また、文を簡潔に保ち冗長な繰り返しを避けることでナチュラルさが増します。
Example: There are few formal rules at my university; however, students must obey national laws. For example, the campus has policies against vandalism and violence, and there are rules about library use and plagiarism.
Do you think students would benefit more from more rules?
Score: 50.0Suggestion: 答えがあいまいで文法や語順の誤り、フィラー(uh)が多く聞かれます。明確な理由を1つか2つ示し、接続詞(because, as a result, for example)を使って論理的に説明してください。文は短め(1〜3文)で具体例を加えると良いです。
Example: I don't think more rules would help, because strict rules can limit students' independence. For example, too many regulations about social activities could stop students from learning responsibility through making their own choices.
Have you ever had a really dedicated teacher?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: 良い具体例を出していますが、話が途中で切れており結論や結果が欠けています。出来事の結果(彼が来た理由、何をしたか、生徒としてどう感じたか)を明確に述べ、過去形を正確に使ってください。繋ぎの語(so, therefore, as a result)を使うと流れが良くなります。
Example: Yes. For example, Mr. Kubota, my fourth-year homeroom teacher, once came to my house when I didn't want to attend school. He talked with my parents and encouraged me to return, which made me feel supported and more confident about going back.
Do you prefer to have more or fewer rules at school?
Score: 65.0Suggestion: 意見は明確ですがフィラーが多く、最後が不完全です。主張を短くし、その理由を具体例(自由、創造性、責任感など)で補強してください。構造はトピック文+理由+例の三部構成が望ましいです。
Example: I prefer fewer rules because they allow students more freedom to explore interests and develop independence. For example, fewer restrictions on clubs and events let students organise activities that build leadership and creativity.
Have you ever had a really strict teacher?
Score: 45.0Suggestion: 答えが未完成で情報が不足しています。まず短いトピックセンテンスで答え(Yes/No)を明確にし、続けて一つの具体的な例とその結果(どう扱われたか、自分がどう感じたか)を述べてください。過去の出来事は正しい文法で完結させること。
Example: No, I haven't had a very strict teacher, but some were somewhat strict. For example, a junior high teacher enforced punctuality strictly, and as a result I became more disciplined about arriving on time.
Would you like to work as a teacher in a rule-free school?
Score: 40.0Suggestion: 答えが混乱しており語彙の誤用(roughly/roof risk call)や文の不明瞭さが目立ちます。まず結論を明確にし、その理由を2点までに絞って述べてください。語彙は正確な単語(rule-free, realistic, challenging)を使い、具体例(管理の難しさ、安全問題など)を挙げると説得力が増します。
Example: I wouldn't prefer to work in a completely rule-free school. While it could foster creativity, it would be challenging to ensure student safety and maintain standards without any guidelines.
× Actually, I guess there aren't any rules at my university, but of course students need to follow Japanese laws so they can't commit crimes or attack other people on campus.
✓ Actually, I guess there aren't any specific rules at my university, but of course students need to follow Japanese laws, so they must not commit crimes or attack other people on campus.
The original sentence uses 'can't' which expresses ability rather than obligation/prohibition. Using 'must not' or 'should not' more accurately expresses prohibition. Also adding 'specific' clarifies the meaning. Use commas to separate clauses for readability.
× I don't think so because uh, rules are usually something which, uh, strict people and uh, ban them from doing anything, doing something.
✓ I don't think so because rules are usually imposed by strict people and ban students from doing many things.
The original sentence has missing verbs and unclear structure ('something which, strict people' is ungrammatical). Replace with 'imposed by strict people' to indicate agent and change 'ban them from doing anything' to 'ban students from doing many things' to be clearer and grammatical.
× So I feel like, uh, the number of rules.
✓ So I feel like there are too many rules.
The original sentence is a sentence fragment lacking a verb and object. Completing the thought with 'there are too many rules' provides a full clause and clarifies the speaker's opinion.
× Uh, one example is uh, Mr. Kubota, who was my homeroom teacher in my 4th year at uh, primary school. Uh, one day I really didn't want to go to school and I decided to stay at home, but surprisingly he came to my home and.
✓ One example is Mr. Kubota, who was my homeroom teacher in my fourth year of primary school. One day I really didn't want to go to school and decided to stay at home, but surprisingly he came to my house.
The original ends with 'and.' which is incomplete; remove the trailing 'and' and use 'came to my house.' Use 'fourth year of primary school' for natural phrasing. Maintain past tense consistently.
× Uh, I definitely prefer having fewer rules at school because I feel like rules can, uh, restrict uh, students freedom to enjoy their university life in their own way. So yeah, I want to see.
✓ I definitely prefer having fewer rules at school because I feel like rules can restrict students' freedom to enjoy university life in their own way.
Missing possessive apostrophe in 'students freedom' corrected to 'students' freedom.' The final sentence 'So yeah, I want to see.' is a fragment and unclear, so it was removed to keep the answer complete and focused.
× Actually, I haven't, but I remember some of my teachers were a little bit strict. For example, when I was in my third year at junior high school, a teacher he.
✓ Actually, I haven't, but I remember some of my teachers were a little strict. For example, when I was in my third year of junior high school, one teacher...
The original ends with 'a teacher he.' which is ungrammatical and incomplete. Replace with 'one teacher...' to indicate the speaker would continue with an example; 'of junior high school' is more natural than 'at' in this context.
× Hmm, I want to say I would like to work as a teacher in a roughly school, but actually in a realistic way.
✓ Hmm, I want to say I would like to work as a teacher in a roughly run school, but realistically...
'Roughly school' is incorrect; likely intended 'a roughly run school.' Also 'in a realistic way' is awkward; 'realistically' is a better adverbial form. Maintain modal 'would like' for hypothetical desire.
× I feel like it's a little bit tough for me because in the roof risk call students can really enjoy what they want today, what want they want to do so.
✓ I feel like it would be a little tough for me because in a rule-free school students could really do whatever they want.
The original contains many errors and garbled phrases ('roof risk call', 'what want they want to do so'). Replace with clear structure: conditional 'would be' to match hypothetical, and 'rule-free school' to express intended meaning; 'could really do whatever they want' conveys the idea naturally.
