Work— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Start with a concise topic sentence answering the question directly, then add one or two specific supporting details. Avoid repetition (e.g., repeating staff numbers) and fix small grammar slips ("I enjoy" not "enjoy"). Use linking words such as "and" or "because" to connect ideas smoothly. Limit to about 2–4 sentences.

Ejemplo: I work as an optician at Agamemnon clinic in Lund, Sweden. I work in a small team — an eye doctor, two assistants and me — and I enjoy it because we have a friendly atmosphere and I can help patients with eye health and vision problems.

Sugerencia: Answer directly then give one clear specific detail. Avoid awkward phrases ("abnormal abnormalities") and ensure correct collocations ("eye health" or "abnormalities"). Use a linking phrase like "for example" or "and" when adding details. Keep sentences shorter and grammatically correct.

Ejemplo: I work at Agamemnon clinic in Lund. For example, I examine patients’ vision and eye health, detect any abnormalities and refer them to the doctor when needed.

Sugerencia: Begin with a clear topic sentence ("Yes, it's a great place to work") and then give one or two specific reasons. Avoid fragmented sentences and correct small errors ("we have a great atmosphere" rather than "we mean we"). Use linking words like "because" and "for example" to make your answer coherent.

Ejemplo: Yes, it's a great place to work because I enjoy helping many different patients. For example, I do basic eye exams and refer people to the doctor when I detect health issues, and my colleagues and I have a friendly, supportive atmosphere.

Sugerencia: Answer clearly then give two specific examples of what you like. Use correct word forms ("eyesight" not "eyesights") and clearer linking language ("for example", "and"). Keep it natural and avoid overly long sentences.

Ejemplo: Yes, I like my workplace. For example, I help restore patients’ eyesight and fit contact lenses, and I enjoy referring them to the doctor when I find health problems so they get proper treatment.

Sugerencia: Start with a direct statement of your plan, then outline the concrete steps you will take. Use correct terminology ("pass the English language test" rather than "finish in the English grammar test") and link steps with words like "then" or "after that". Make the timeline concise and logical.

Ejemplo: I plan to continue working as an optician but move to Scotland. First, I will pass the required English language test, then apply for registration with the GOC, and finally complete any further qualifications so I can work there.

× I work with the three employees, including myself.

✓ I work with two other employees, including myself.

Using 'the three employees' is awkward and implies a specific known set; more natural is 'two other employees' because total staff is three including the speaker. Corrects plural reference and clarity.

× It's my boss and two assistants, and the atmosphere is very, very good in the workplace and enjoy working there because I can help people.

✓ There is my boss and two assistants, and the atmosphere at the workplace is very good; I enjoy working there because I can help people.

Original sentence lacks proper subject for 'enjoy' and has run-on structure. Added 'There is' to introduce the team, rephrased 'at the workplace' and separated clauses with a semicolon to provide clear subjects and verbs.

× I work at the clinic called the Agamemnon which consists of me as an optician, 2 assistants and an eye doctor.

✓ I work at a clinic called Agamemnon, which consists of me as an optician, two assistants, and an eye doctor.

Using 'the Agamemnon' is unnecessary; proper noun clinic names usually omit 'the' unless part of the name. Also '2' should be written as 'two' in formal text and commas added for clarity.

× What I enjoy working there is I have the possibility to help people restore their eyes.

✓ What I enjoy about working there is that I have the opportunity to help people restore their vision.

The original word order is incorrect. 'What I enjoy about working there is that...' introduces a noun clause. 'Possibility' is less natural than 'opportunity', and 'restore their eyes' is better as 'restore their vision'.

× I can check for health, abnormal abnormalities and also I can refer to the doctor immediately if I find something.

✓ I can check for general eye health and abnormalities, and I can refer patients to the doctor immediately if I find something.

Phrase 'abnormal abnormalities' is redundant; 'check for health' is vague—'general eye health' clarifies meaning. Added 'patients' for clarity and smoothed conjunctions.

× Yes, it is a good place to work at the I love my job because I get to help different types of people.

✓ Yes, it is a good place to work. I love my job because I get to help different types of people.

Original contains missing punctuation and an extra 'the' before 'I'. Split into two sentences to correct run-on and removed incorrect article.

× Some of them come for basic eye examination, but then I refer them to the doctor because they have some eye health condition that needs to be referred.

✓ Some of them come for a basic eye examination, but I refer them to the doctor if they have an eye health condition that requires referral.

Added article 'a' before 'basic eye examination'. Removed redundant phrasing 'needs to be referred' and replaced with 'requires referral' for concision and correct structure.

× My colleagues and I mean we have a great atmosphere.

✓ My colleagues and I have a great working atmosphere.

Phrase 'and I mean' is colloquial filler and breaks sentence structure. Removed it and used 'working atmosphere' for natural phrasing.

× I enjoy helping people in different stages, like restoring their eyesights, referring them to the eye doctor because I've found something that's not healthy in their eyes.

✓ I enjoy helping people at different stages, such as restoring their eyesight and referring them to the eye doctor when I find something unhealthy in their eyes.

Use 'at different stages' rather than 'in'. 'Eyesights' is incorrect plural; 'eyesight' is uncountable. Changed gerund forms to parallel structure 'restoring... and referring...' and adjusted clause 'when I find something unhealthy' for clarity.

× I also like to help people fit contact lenses and seeing that they are more able to express themselves.

✓ I also like helping people fit contact lenses and seeing that they are better able to express themselves.

Changed 'to help people fit contact lenses and seeing' to parallel gerunds 'helping... and seeing'. Replaced 'more able' with 'better able' which is the usual collocation.

× I would love to continue working as an optician, but instead of Sweden I'd like to be able to work in Scotland.

✓ I would love to continue working as an optician, but instead of working in Sweden, I'd like to be able to work in Scotland.

Original 'instead of Sweden' omits 'working' and reads awkwardly; adding 'working in Sweden' clarifies the comparison and keeps tense consistent.

× My main goal is to finish in the English grammar test, then apply for GOC and hopefully I can get my degree in Scotland.

✓ My main goal is to pass the English language test, then apply to the GOC, and hopefully I can get my degree in Scotland.

'Finish in the English grammar test' is incorrect collocation—'pass the English language test' is natural. 'Apply for GOC' should be 'apply to the GOC' if referring to General Optical Council. Added conjunctions for clear sequence.
