Can you remember the dreams you had?
Score: 78.0Suggestion: Make the answer more concise and correct minor grammar (tense and article use). Start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific details. Avoid filler sounds like “Umm.” Use linking words (for example, “so” is fine) and correct verb forms.
Example: Yes. I usually remember my dreams after I wake up because they are very vivid, so they’re hard to forget. For example, when a dream is especially fascinating I write it down immediately to remember the details.
Do you share your dreams with others? (or are you interested in others' dreams?)
Score: 70.0Suggestion: Improve grammar (correct verb patterns and prepositions), reduce redundancy, and be more specific. Use linking words (for example, “because” or “so”) to connect ideas. Replace vague adjectives (“stranger and marvelous”) with clearer descriptions.
Example: Yes, I enjoy sharing my dreams and I’m also curious about other people’s dreams because they can reveal personal concerns or interests. For instance, I often tell my family about strange or funny dreams and listen to theirs to learn what worries or excites them.
Do you think dreams have special meanings?
Score: 60.0Suggestion: Fix vocabulary and word choice errors (e.g., ‘deserts’ → ‘desires’ or ‘subconscious’) and remove repetition. Provide a clearer explanation and one brief example to support the opinion. Use linking words like “for example” or “because.”
Example: Yes, I think dreams can have special meanings because they may reflect our subconscious desires or worries. For example, dreaming about being late might indicate anxiety about a real-life deadline.
Do you want to make your dreams come true?

× Umm yes, I often remember my dreams after I wake up.
✓ Umm yes, I often remember my dreams when I wake up.
Using 'after I wake up' is not incorrect but 'when I wake up' is more natural for habitual actions. Keep present simple 'remember' and 'wake' for habitual present.
× I have very vivid and interesting dreams so I found them hard to forget.
✓ I have very vivid and interesting dreams, so I find them hard to forget.
The sentence mixes present ('have') with past ('found'). Use present simple 'find' to match the habitual meaning: 'I have... so I find...'. Also add a comma before 'so'.
× Often when I wake up I will write my dreams down when they are especially fascinating.
✓ Often when I wake up, I write my dreams down when they are especially fascinating.
Using 'will' suggests future rather than habitual action. For regular habits use present simple 'write'. Add a comma after the introductory phrase for clarity.
× Yes, I love to share my dreams with others and I also interest in listening other dreams.
✓ Yes, I love to share my dreams with others and I am also interested in listening to other people's dreams.
'Interest' is a verb but the student needs the adjective 'interested' and the auxiliary 'am'. Also use the preposition 'in' with 'interested' and 'listening to' requires 'to'. Finally add 'people's' to show possession.
× I think dreams are very interesting and they can tell you a lot about a person, so I always find it fascinating to hear the stranger and marvelous dreams of my family and friends.
✓ I think dreams are very interesting and can tell you a lot about a person, so I always find it fascinating to hear the strange and marvelous dreams of my family and friends.
'Stranger' is a noun; the correct adjective is 'strange'. Also remove the extra 'they' for conciseness and keep present simple 'can tell'. Comma before 'so' is optional but sentence flow improved.
× They say that dreams are related to our unconscious deserts.
✓ They say that dreams are related to our unconscious desires.
The word 'deserts' is a spelling/word-choice error; the intended noun is 'desires'. This changes meaning and corrects the vocabulary.
× Therefore, I think dreams have the power to tell us things about ourselves that we don't conscious consciously realize.
✓ Therefore, I think dreams have the power to tell us things about ourselves that we don't consciously realize.
The adverb 'consciously' is repeated and misordered. Use 'consciously' after 'don't' to modify 'realize'. Remove the incorrect word 'conscious'.
× Yes, I definitely want to make my dreams come true because they give me direction and the motivation in life.
✓ Yes, I definitely want to make my dreams come true because they give me direction and motivation in life.
Use 'motivation' without the definite article 'the' in this general statement. Present simple 'give' correctly matches the general truth.
× For example, pursuing a career and passionate about keeps me focused and accept small goals and plan to gradually achieve those bigger aspirations.
✓ For example, pursuing a career and being passionate about it keeps me focused, helps me accept small goals, and allows me to plan to gradually achieve those bigger aspirations.
Original sentence lacks parallel structure and missing verb forms. Use 'being passionate about it' to parallel 'pursuing a career'. Then use verbs in coordinated form: 'keeps', 'helps', 'allows me to plan' to make the sentence grammatical and clearer.
