× I am already working as a nurse in a certain Medical Center here in Davao City.
✓ I am working as a nurse at a medical center here in Davao City.
Use of 'already' is unnecessary and awkward in this context; 'at' is the correct preposition for a workplace and 'medical center' should not be capitalized. Keep present continuous 'am working' to show current employment.
× I work OR.
✓ (Remove this fragment or clarify the intended meaning; for example: 'I also work in the operating room.' )
The fragment 'I work OR.' is incomplete and unclear. If the speaker meant 'operating room', use a full phrase and past/present tense consistent with context: 'I also work in the operating room.' This fixes sentence structure and clarity.
× I was assigned in the radiology unit as a radiology nurse and right now I was on a probationary period and.
✓ I was assigned to the radiology unit as a radiology nurse, and right now I am on a probationary period.
Use 'assigned to' (correct preposition) not 'assigned in'. The first clause uses past tense 'was assigned' which is fine for the assignment event; the second clause refers to the current state so use present 'am on a probationary period' rather than 'was'. Remove the trailing 'and'.
× I work in a Medical Center here in the city of Davao and it was one of the biggest hospital institution here in Davao City and it is a tertiary hospital in which catered a lot of cases from simple.
✓ I work at a medical center here in Davao City. It is one of the biggest hospital institutions here and is a tertiary hospital that caters to many cases, from simple to complex.
Use 'at' for workplaces. Do not capitalize common nouns like 'medical center'. 'Hospital institution' is redundant; use 'hospital' or 'hospital institution'. Keep tense consistent: 'it is' for current facts. Use 'that caters to' (correct verb and preposition) and complete the comparison 'from simple to complex.'
× Yes, I believe it is.
✓ Yes, I believe it is.
No correction needed; sentence is grammatical and matches context. Included here only to acknowledge it's correct and present-tense appropriate.
× My decision of working here is good because it's the best place to work in the sense that it enhances my capabilities and hold my talents and skills, especially in the field of nursing.
✓ My decision to work here is good because it's a great place that enhances my abilities and develops my talents and skills, especially in nursing.
Use 'decision to work' not 'decision of working'. 'Best place to work' is okay but 'a great place' is more natural. 'Enhances my capabilities' is okay but 'abilities' is more common; 'hold my talents' is incorrect—use 'develops' or 'helps grow my talents and skills'. Keep tense and meaning consistent.
× Would you like the place where you work?
✓ Do you like the place where you work?
The examiner's question is already fine, but the student should answer with 'Do you like...' rather than 'Would you like...' when asking about current preference. Change modal to simple present to match habitual state.
× I do because aside from uh, delivering excellent care to the patient, my colleagues are are are more considerate and we are working in a teamwork in order to succeed one procedure.
✓ Yes, because besides delivering excellent care to patients, my colleagues are very considerate and we work as a team to complete procedures successfully.
Use 'besides' or 'aside from' followed by a gerund phrase; 'the patient' should be plural 'patients' for general statements. Remove repetition 'are are are'. Use 'work as a team' not 'working in a teamwork'. Use plural 'procedures' or 'a procedure' with 'complete' and adverb 'successfully'.
× I think it would be to work in other countries like UK or USA or even in Canada.
✓ I think I would like to work in other countries such as the UK, the USA, or Canada.
Use 'I would like to' to express preference. Include definite articles for country abbreviations: 'the UK' and 'the USA'. Use 'such as' for examples and keep parallel structure.
× I want also to extend my nursing career overseas in order to experience UMM interview.
✓ I also want to extend my nursing career overseas in order to gain experience and attend interviews for international positions.
Place 'also' in a natural position: 'I also want...'. 'Extend my nursing career overseas' is acceptable. 'Experience UMM interview' is unclear; provide a clear phrase such as 'gain experience and attend interviews for international positions.' Clarify 'UMM' or avoid undefined acronym.
