Where do you work?>

As I mentioned before, I'm working in Olea Cafe UMM. This cafe is located around UMM office building. So during morning tea time or lunch rush is really really busy.

Is it a good place to work?

Yeah, all of my coworkers are friendly and especially my boss. He's really understanding and as long as we do our job, he doesn't really care what we do when he's not busy. And also I really like cooking for others, which really fascinate.

分数: 62.0建议: Be more concise and correct sentence fragments and word choice. Start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Avoid short broken sentences and check vocabulary (e.g. 'demanding' not split, 'summer' seems incorrect context).

× Sometimes it's really. Demanding and really hectic, but actually I really enjoy cooking for summer.
✓ Sometimes it's really demanding and hectic, but I really enjoy cooking for customers.
The original has an incorrect period splitting 'really.' and 'Demanding' which breaks sentence structure, and 'for summer' is unclear and likely wrong contextually. Combine the fragments into one sentence and replace 'for summer' with 'for customers' (or 'in the summer' if seasonal meaning was intended). Also remove redundant 'really'.
× As I mentioned before, I'm working in Olea Cafe UMM.
✓ As I mentioned before, I'm working at Olaya Cafe near the UMM office building.
The transcript shows inconsistent cafe name and location phrasing. Use 'at' for workplaces and correct the name to 'Olaya' (as earlier) and clarify location. This fixes preposition choice and sentence clarity.
× So during morning tea time or lunch rush is really really busy.
✓ So during morning tea time or the lunch rush it is really, really busy.
The original omits the subject for the clause; English requires a subject (it) in impersonal constructions about weather or busy times. Adding 'it' and the article 'the' before 'lunch rush' corrects sentence structure and meaning.
× Yeah, all of my coworkers are friendly and especially my boss.
✓ Yeah, all of my coworkers are friendly, especially my boss.
The conjunction 'and' before 'especially my boss' is unnecessary and makes the sentence awkward. A comma and the adverb 'especially' correctly highlight the boss.
× He's really understanding and as long as we do our job, he doesn't really care what we do when he's not busy.
✓ He's really understanding, and as long as we do our jobs, he doesn't really care what we do when he's not busy.
'Job' should be plural ('jobs') to match 'we'. Also add a comma before 'and' to join clauses. This fixes subject-verb/number agreement and improves flow.
× And also I really like cooking for others, which really fascinate.
✓ Also, I really like cooking for others, which I find really fascinating.
'Which really fascinate' is ungrammatical: 'which' refers to the activity and requires a verb phrase. Use 'I find ... fascinating' or 'which is really fascinating'. This adds a subject and correct verb form.
× What do you mean I like the place where you work? Or you mean am I enjoying working there or?
✓ Do you mean 'Do I like the place where I work?' Or do you mean 'Am I enjoying working there?'
The student repeats the examiner's question awkwardly and mixes subjects ('you' vs 'I'). Present the two possible intended questions in correct grammatical form and matching persons.
× Umm, I want to become a nurse. That's why I'm studying. I mean I'm doing the exam for IELTS.
✓ Umm, I want to become a nurse. That's why I'm studying and taking the IELTS exam.
'I'm doing the exam for IELTS' is awkward; native phrasing is 'taking the IELTS exam'. Combine related ideas with 'and' for smoother, grammatically correct present continuous usage.
× I'm planning to study nursing to become a nurse. I really find this job fascinating because it help.
✓ I'm planning to study nursing to become a nurse. I find this job fascinating because it helps people.
'It help' is incorrect: subject-verb agreement requires 'helps'. Also 'I really find' is acceptable but 'I find this job fascinating because it helps people' clarifies why nursing is fascinating. Ensure verb agrees with singular subject.
