Travelling— Part 1 Report

Suggestion: Be more direct and concise: start with a clear topic sentence answering the question, then add one or two specific supporting details. Avoid filler words and repetition (e.g., "uh", "I liked, I liked"). Use linking words if you add a reason (for example, "because" or "so").

Example: Yes, I often look out of the window when I travel by car or bus because I enjoy watching the changing scenery. For example, I like seeing the city buildings give way to green fields, which helps me relax during the journey.

Suggestion: Answer clearly and give a concise reason with a specific detail or example. Remove hesitations and vague phrases like "etc." Use a linking word ("because" or "so") and be specific about what you photograph and why.

Example: Yes, I often take photos of the scenery outside the car window because I enjoy capturing unusual landscapes, such as rolling hills or colorful sunsets. These photos remind me of the trip and I sometimes share them with friends.

Suggestion: Begin with a direct answer (state which you prefer). Then give one clear reason and a specific example. Avoid mixing ideas; if you have mixed preferences, explain briefly how you choose between them using linking words ("although", "but", "sometimes").

Example: I prefer the sea because I find it more relaxing; listening to the waves helps me unwind after a busy week. However, I sometimes visit the mountains for hiking when I want more physical activity and fresh air.

× Yes, I usually, I often want to go somewhere by bus or car.

✓ Yes, I usually or often travel somewhere by bus or by car.

The original uses 'want to go' awkwardly with adverbs 'usually' and 'often' to describe a habitual action; this is a present simple habitual context, so use the base verb 'travel' or 'go' in simple present. Also the adverbs should be placed before the main verb and redundant phrasing was streamlined for clarity. Suggestion: Use 'usually' or 'often' before the main verb and use a clear verb like 'travel' or 'go' for habitual actions.

× I usually open uh, the window of the car because of that.

✓ I usually open the car window because of that.

Saying 'the window of the car' is grammatically correct but wordy and less natural than 'the car window'. Use the more natural noun phrase order 'car window'. Also remove filler 'uh' in formal correction. Suggestion: Use natural noun order and keep sentences concise.

× I liked, I liked the vibe of the outside of the car.

✓ I like the vibe outside the car.

The student used past tense 'liked' twice though they mean a general feeling when traveling, so present simple 'like' is appropriate. 'The vibe of the outside of the car' is awkward; 'the vibe outside the car' is concise and natural. Suggestion: Match tense to context (habitual → present simple) and simplify phrasing.

× Yes, I usually take photos of the scenery outside the car of window because when I was at the car, uh, I was so uh, I was so happy to see the other, the nature and ETC.

✓ Yes, I usually take photos of the scenery outside the car window because when I am in the car, I am very happy to see nature, etc.

Multiple problems: 'outside the car of window' uses incorrect word order for prepositions and nouns; correct phrase is 'outside the car window'. Tense inconsistency: use present simple 'I usually take' and match subordinate clause to present habitual context ('when I am in the car'). 'At the car' is incorrect preposition; use 'in the car'. Repeated fillers 'uh' removed and 'the other, the nature' is wrong — use 'nature'. Suggestion: Use correct prepositions ('in the car', 'outside the car window'), keep tense consistent, and avoid fillers.

× I prefer boat because sometimes I need to go to nature mountains and sometimes I want to relax me to see the sea and relaxing my mind.

✓ I prefer the sea because sometimes I need to go to the mountains to enjoy nature, and sometimes I want to relax and clear my mind by the sea.

Several pronoun and structure errors: 'I prefer boat' uses wrong noun for preference and missing article; likely the student meant 'sea' or 'boats' — here corrected to 'sea' to match context. 'Go to nature mountains' is incorrect — use 'go to the mountains to enjoy nature'. 'Relax me to see the sea' wrongly uses reflexive structure; use 'relax and clear my mind by the sea'. Also adjust parallel structure with 'sometimes... and sometimes...'. Suggestion: Use correct nouns and prepositions ('go to the mountains', 'by the sea'), avoid incorrect reflexive constructions, and keep parallel sentence structure.
