× We are to wear traditional style Japanese uniforms but we're they're very lenient on us how to style it.

✓ We are to wear traditional style Japanese uniforms but they're very lenient on us about how to style them.

The sentence incorrectly uses 'we're' instead of 'they're' and 'it' instead of 'them'. 'They're' is the correct contraction for 'they are', referring to the school authorities. 'Them' is the correct pronoun to refer to the plural 'uniforms'. Using correct pronouns clarifies meaning and maintains grammatical agreement.

× However, they are very strict on us ironing our shirts and skirts or pants so that we we look.

✓ However, they are very strict about us ironing our shirts and skirts or pants so that we look neat.

The phrase 'strict on us ironing' is incorrect; the correct preposition is 'strict about'. Also, the sentence ends abruptly with 'so that we we look.' It should be completed to convey the intended meaning, e.g., 'so that we look neat.' This correction improves clarity and grammatical correctness.

× He was a very strict teacher and he sometimes used very forceful and stern words, but he made sure that every one of us was understanding the class and getting his point.

✓ He was a very strict teacher and he sometimes used very forceful and stern words, but he made sure that every one of us understood the class and got his point.

The verbs 'was understanding' and 'getting' are incorrectly used in the present participle form here. The past simple tense 'understood' and 'got' should be used to match the past context. This correction aligns verb tense with the narrative time frame.

× So I prefer to have your rules just because I hate the feeling of restriction.

✓ So I prefer to have rules just because I hate the feeling of restriction.

The phrase 'your rules' is incorrect in this context; it should be 'rules' to refer generally to rules at school. Using 'your' incorrectly assigns possession to the listener, which is not intended here.

× I currently have a social studies teacher who always goes around the school checking for students that are dressing lazily or breaking the school rules.

✓ I currently have a social studies teacher who always goes around the school checking for students who are dressing lazily or breaking the school rules.

The relative pronoun 'that' is less appropriate for people; 'who' should be used when referring to students. This correction improves grammatical accuracy and naturalness.

× I personally think it's even amazing that he stays attentive to the students so much in a way.

✓ I personally think it's amazing that he stays so attentive to the students.

The phrase 'even amazing' is awkward; 'amazing' alone suffices. Also, 'stays attentive to the students so much in a way' is awkward and unclear. Simplifying to 'stays so attentive to the students' improves clarity and fluency.

× I feel like if I reprimand students for, for example, dressing lazily, they might argue that there are no rules that prohibit them from doing so, and it's very hard to kind of keep them in order.

✓ I feel like if I reprimand students for, for example, dressing lazily, they might argue that there are no rules prohibiting them from doing so, and it's very hard to keep them in order.

The phrase 'rules that prohibit them from doing so' can be more concisely expressed as 'rules prohibiting them from doing so'. Also, 'kind of' is informal and unnecessary here. Removing it makes the sentence clearer and more formal.
