Rules— Part 1 Relatório

Sugestão: Be more grammatically accurate, reduce fillers (uh), and structure your answer: give a topic sentence then two specific examples with linking words. Use correct tense and singular/plural forms.

Exemplo: Yes, there were several important rules at my school. For example, students had to arrive on time, and latecomers were punished. In addition, wearing a proper uniform and carrying an ID card was mandatory.

Sugestão: Start with a clear opinion, avoid repetition, use linking words and correct grammar (rules make, disciplined). Give one concise reason and one short example or consequence.

Exemplo: Yes, I believe students benefit from rules because they promote punctuality and discipline. For instance, a rule requiring attendance helps students develop good time-management skills.

Sugestão: Reduce repetition and hesitations, use past tense consistently, and combine similar points into one or two sentences with linking words. Be specific about what made them dedicated.

Exemplo: Yes, I had a very dedicated teacher during school. She never missed a class and always arrived on time, and she thoroughly explained each topic so students understood the material.

Sugestão: Give a clear direct answer, avoid repeating the same idea, correct grammar (rules, disciplined), and provide one brief reason and an example or consequence to support your view.

Exemplo: I prefer more rules because they encourage discipline and punctuality. For example, strict start times and attendance policies help students develop reliable study habits.

Sugestão: Be concise and factual; avoid unnecessary hesitation. Use past tense and provide a brief specific example of strict behaviour, but be careful with sensitive details — describe firmly yet neutrally.

Exemplo: Yes, I had a strict math teacher who punished students who failed to complete their work. For example, she would give detention to anyone who missed assignments, which made most students take their homework seriously.

Sugestão: Clarify your stance (start with a clear 'No'), avoid contradictions and repetitions, correct grammar (rule-free, won’t work at), and give one clear reason with a concise example of consequences of no rules.

Exemplo: No, I would not like to work at a rule-free school because students might be frequently absent or late. For instance, without attendance policies many students could skip class, which would harm their learning and make teaching ineffective.

× Yep, when I was in school there is a lot of rules like for example uh reaching school on time and also UH late students get punished at that time.

✓ Yep, when I was in school there were a lot of rules, for example reaching school on time, and late students got punished.

Use past tense with 'there' for past situations: 'there is' (present) should be 'there were' (past plural). Also 'a lot of rules' requires plural agreement; use commas and past tense 'got punished' to match 'when I was in school'.

× Also bearing ID cards and proper uniform is mandatory in my College in my school.

✓ Also, bearing ID cards and wearing proper uniform was mandatory at my school.

The gerund phrases should be parallel and the verb must be past tense to match 'was in my school time'. Use 'wearing' with 'proper uniform' and 'was mandatory' to agree with past context. Use 'at my school' instead of 'in my College in my school' for clarity.

× I think so students get more benefit from rules because rules makes like everyone has to follow rules because to get to become a punctual and discipline person.

✓ I think students benefit more from rules because rules make everyone follow them and become punctual and disciplined.

'Rules' is plural so the verb should be 'make' not 'makes'. 'Get more benefit from' is awkward; use 'benefit more from'. 'To get to become' is redundant; simplify to 'become'. Use adjective 'disciplined' instead of 'discipline'.

× So roles are more important in students life.

✓ So rules are very important in students' lives.

Use possessive plural 'students' lives' and correct 'roles' to 'rules' based on context. Add 'very' or 'quite' if emphasis intended.

× In my school time, I had a really dedicated teacher who, who she's, she's very professional and she never uh miss, she never miss any class.

✓ In my school days, I had a really dedicated teacher who was very professional and never missed any class.

Switch to past tense consistently: 'she's' (she is) should be 'she was'. 'Miss' should be past 'missed' to match timeframe. Remove repeated fillers and repetitions.

× She teach each and every class during my uh, during my semesters.

✓ She taught each and every class during my semesters.

Third person singular past requires 'taught' (past of 'teach'), not 'teach'. Use past tense 'taught' to match the timeframe.

× She's really dedicated and professional and she or she really come on time.

✓ She was really dedicated and professional and always arrived on time.

Use past tense 'was' and past verb 'arrived' (not 'come') to match past context. Remove redundant pronoun 'she or she' and use 'always' for emphasis.

× I prefer more roles at school because it helps students to become a discipline and punctual person.

✓ I prefer more rules at school because they help students become disciplined and punctual.

Use plural 'rules' and plural pronoun 'they'. 'Discipline' should be the adjective 'disciplined'. 'Helps' should be 'help' to agree with plural subject 'rules'.

× So I think so having rules is is more important in in every student life because with this you can like you can become a very professional and disciplined person in your life.

✓ So I think having rules is important in every student's life because they help you become a professional and disciplined person.

Remove redundant 'is is' and duplicate 'in'. Use possessive 'student's life' or better 'students' lives'. Use 'they' to refer to 'rules'. Simplify 'you can like you can become' to 'you become'.

× I had a strict teacher at my school. Uh, she teaches us math and she really strict.

✓ I had a strict teacher at my school. She taught us math and she was really strict.

Use past tense 'taught' and 'was' to match 'I had'. 'Teaches' and 'is' are present forms and incorrect for past events.

× And even when a student did not do their work, she always punished them.

✓ Even when a student did not do their work, she always punished them.

This sentence is acceptable, but note that singular 'a student' with 'their' is informal; to be fully formal use 'students did not do their work' or 'a student did not do his or her work'.

× And sometimes she uh, like she hit them with a, with a stick.

✓ And sometimes she hit them with a stick.

Keep simple past 'hit' which is correct; remove filler 'uh, like' and repeated 'with a'. This matches past context.

× I don't think so. I would like to work as teacher in a role free school because there there is a student who did not follow rules.

✓ I don't think so. I would not like to work as a teacher in a rule-free school because there would be students who did not follow rules.

Use negative 'would not like' to match 'I don't think so'. 'Role free' should be 'rule-free'. 'There is' should be 'there would be' (conditional) and plural 'students'. Include article 'a teacher'.

× They they can miss their classes, they can, they cannot come classes on time.

✓ They could miss their classes and not come to class on time.

Use conditional 'could' or 'would' to match hypothetical situation. 'Cannot come classes' is ungrammatical; use 'not come to class' or 'arrive on time'. Remove duplicated words.

× They just go around. They just go here and there.

✓ They would just wander around and go here and there.

Use conditional/modal 'would' to describe hypothetical behavior. Combine redundant sentences and use 'wander around' for natural phrasing.

× So I don't think so. I'm gonna work any role free school ever.

✓ So I don't think so. I'm not going to work at any rule-free school.

Use standard negative future 'not going to' rather than 'gonna' for formal response. 'Work any role free school ever' is ungrammatical; use 'work at any rule-free school'. 'Role' -> 'rule'.
