Chatting— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more concise and avoid hesitation sounds. Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one brief supporting detail. For example, say why you enjoy chatting (e.g., to relax or keep in touch).

Example: Yes, I enjoy chatting with my friends because it helps me relax and stay connected. For instance, we often catch up after work to share funny stories or plans for the weekend.

Suggestion: Organize your answer: give a clear main point, then two specific examples using linking words (first/also). Avoid repetition and filler words. Use more precise vocabulary like "current events," "personal updates," "future plans."

Example: I usually talk about current events and personal updates. For example, first we discuss the latest news or trends, and also we share what we are doing and our plans for the coming weeks.

Suggestion: Make the contrast clearer with linking words (e.g., "on the one hand... on the other hand...") and reduce hesitations. Use concise phrases like "in a group" and "one-on-one" and give a short reason for each preference.

Example: It depends. On the one hand, I prefer group conversations when we discuss team issues like work trips because everyone needs to coordinate. On the other hand, I like one-on-one chats for personal topics because they feel more private and deeper.

Suggestion: State your preference clearly and give two concise reasons with linking words (e.g., "because" and "however"). Fix grammar ("it gives" not "it's gives") and use precise vocabulary like "tone, body language, and facial expressions."

Example: I prefer face-to-face communication because it lets me read tone and body language, which gives more clarity. However, social media is useful for quick updates and staying in touch when meeting in person is not possible.

Suggestion: Begin with a direct statement, then provide a short explanation with linking words like "because" or "so." Avoid repeating phrases like "as well." Offer a brief example of how you handle disagreements to add specificity.

Example: I usually don't argue with my friends because I respect their views and prefer calm discussion. For example, if we disagree about plans, I explain my reasons calmly and we try to find a compromise.

× Yes umm I love chatting with my friends and also my with my family as well.

✓ Yes, umm, I love chatting with my friends and also with my family.

Redundant and incorrect pronoun 'my' repeated before 'with my family' and extra 'as well' is unnecessary. Remove the extra 'my' and the redundant 'as well' for clarity. Use commas to show pauses: 'Yes, umm, I love chatting with my friends and also with my family.'

× I usually, uh, chat about with them regarding latest news, what's going on and how's their life going on.

✓ I usually, uh, chat with them about the latest news, what's going on, and how their life is going.

Incorrect preposition order 'chat about with' — correct collocation is 'chat with someone about something.' Also 'regarding latest news' needs article 'the latest news.' 'How's their life going on' is awkward; use 'how their life is going.' Remove contractions in reported phrasing for clarity.

× And, uh, I also share them my side of story that what I'm doing what, what's, what are my plans?

✓ And, uh, I also share with them my side of the story, what I'm doing and what my plans are.

Verb 'share' requires a preposition 'with' before the indirect object: 'share with them.' 'Side of story' needs article: 'the side of the story.' The original word order and multiple question fragments are incorrect; use 'what I'm doing and what my plans are' for correct noun clause word order.

× Honestly it depends uh, if we are discussing something uh, about our work trips and it's umm part of a team then I would love to chat with group of people.

✓ Honestly, it depends. If we are discussing something about our work trips and it's part of a team, then I would love to chat with a group of people.

Missing articles: use 'a group of people.' Also sentence run-on and missing punctuation; split into two sentences or use commas. 'It's umm part of a team' should be 'it's part of a team.'

× But if I'm talking personally about myself or knowing other person I would like to talk to 1 friend at a time.

✓ But if I'm talking personally about myself or getting to know another person, I would like to talk to one friend at a time.

Use 'another person' instead of 'other person.' 'Knowing' should be 'getting to know.' Use the word 'one' instead of numeral '1' in formal responses. Add commas for clarity.

× I prefer to have a face to face conversation as it's gives you more clarity how person is speaking in what manner.

✓ I prefer to have a face-to-face conversation, as it gives you more clarity about how a person is speaking and in what manner.

Use hyphens in 'face-to-face' when used as a compound adjective. Remove extra 's' in 'it's gives' -> 'it gives.' Add preposition 'about' and article 'a' before 'person.' Clarify 'in what manner.'

× But I think like we are social media, you cannot get to know enough of a person.

✓ But I think on social media, you cannot get to know a person well enough.

Phrase 'like we are social media' is incorrect; 'on social media' is the correct prepositional phrase. 'Get to know enough of a person' is awkward; better 'get to know a person well enough.'

× Usually I do not argue with my friends, I respect their opinion as well and also I uh, try to make them understand my side of story as well, but I don't generally argue.

✓ Usually I do not argue with my friends; I respect their opinions and I try to make them understand my side of the story, but I don't generally argue.

Pluralize 'opinion' to 'opinions' to match 'friends.' 'Side of story' needs article 'the side of the story.' Use semicolon or period to avoid comma splice. Remove redundant 'as well' and extra filler. Tense is present and appropriate; adjust agreement and articles.
