Reading— Part 1 Informe

Sugerencia: Be more concise and structured: start with a clear topic sentence, then give one or two specific supporting details. Remove filler words like "Umm" and avoid repeating similar ideas (enjoyment/excitement/anticipation). Use varied vocabulary and keep it within 3–4 sentences.

Ejemplo: Yes, I love reading. I especially enjoy fiction because it helps me escape boredom and sparks my imagination. For example, a good novel keeps me turning pages as I anticipate the plot twists, which makes reading both relaxing and exciting.

Sugerencia: Give a clear direct answer, then support with two concise, specific reasons using linking words like "because" or "so". Avoid vague phrases such as "get lost on the materials."

Ejemplo: I prefer reading on a screen because I can adjust the brightness and font size to suit my eyes. As a result, I stay more focused and less likely to zone out compared with paper.

Sugerencia: Organize into two clear parts: when careful reading is needed, and when skimming is acceptable. Be precise and avoid awkward phrasing. Replace informal or unclear parts ("just a simple scroll") with concise descriptions.

Ejemplo: I need to read carefully for important documents at work, such as a doctor's order, so I read word by word to avoid mistakes. By contrast, I skim or quickly browse social media posts when the information is not critical.

Sugerencia: Start with a clear statement of preference for each situation, use linking words ("when... I..., but when... I...") and avoid redundant phrases ("in me"). Provide one specific example to illustrate each mode.

Ejemplo: For new material, I prefer detailed reading because I need to understand the concepts well enough to answer questions. Once I feel confident, I switch to scanning to refresh key points quickly, for example before a meeting or quiz.

× I love reading, especially when I'm bored or I'm alone in my thoughts because when I read there's a lot of enjoyment, excitement that I can feel just by looking at a book.

✓ I love reading, especially when I'm bored or alone in my thoughts, because when I read there's a lot of enjoyment and excitement that I can feel just by looking at a book.

The sentence had a missing conjunction between 'enjoyment' and 'excitement' which made the noun list awkward. Adding 'and' correctly links the two nouns. Also 'I'm alone in my thoughts' can be simplified to 'alone in my thoughts' to avoid repetition of the subject. Suggestion: connect list items with a coordinating conjunction and avoid unnecessary repetition of pronouns. Grammar problem type ID: 10

× Umm, every page I turn is another anticipation of what's going to happen next or what's going on.

✓ Every page I turn brings another anticipation of what's going to happen next or of what's going on.

The original phrase 'is another anticipation of' is awkward but acceptable; the main issue is preposition/structure clarity. Recasting with 'brings another anticipation of' improves verb-noun agreement and flow. Also include 'of' before 'what's going on' to parallel the first object. Suggestion: use consistent prepositional phrases and stronger verbs for clarity. Grammar problem type ID: 26

× I would prefer to read in screen rather than paper because when I read on paper I tend to get lost on the materials that I read or maybe zone out.

✓ I would prefer to read on a screen rather than on paper because when I read on paper I tend to get lost in the material I am reading or maybe zone out.

Use 'on a screen' and 'on paper' rather than 'in screen' and 'rather than paper'. Also use 'lost in' (not 'lost on') and 'material' is usually uncountable here (not 'materials'). Use present continuous 'I am reading' or simple present 'I read' for consistency. Suggestion: use correct prepositions 'on' and 'in', include articles where needed, and keep noun number consistent.

× But when I read on screen it helps me to adjust the brightness and to focus more.

✓ But when I read on a screen, it helps me adjust the brightness and focus more.

Remove unnecessary 'to' infinitives after 'helps me' (helps me adjust, not 'helps me to adjust' is acceptable in both dialects but shorter form is natural). Also add 'a' before 'screen' for correctness. Suggestion: include articles before singular countable nouns and simplify infinitive constructions for natural speech. Grammar problem type ID: 12

× When there's a doctor's order on the chart, I tend to read that word by word, fully understand it, and when I'm not or I'm just letting my brain read without understanding, I just a simple scroll on the TikTok or social media app will do.

✓ When there's a doctor's order on the chart, I tend to read it word by word and fully understand it; when I'm not doing that or I'm just letting my brain read without understanding, a simple scroll through TikTok or a social media app will do.

Problems: 'read that word by word' is better as 'read it word by word' (correct pronoun). The clause 'when I'm not or I'm just letting my brain read' is incomplete; use 'doing that' to refer back. 'I just a simple scroll' is ungrammatical; change to 'a simple scroll through TikTok or a social media app will do.' Also use 'through' for scrolling. Suggestion: ensure pronouns refer clearly, complete comparative clauses, and use correct noun phrases. Grammar problem type ID: 3

× When it's my first time encountering a new material, I prefer detailed reading because I want to build enough knowledge to myself that whatever questions will be thrown to me, I can answer it confidently.

✓ When it's my first time encountering new material, I prefer detailed reading because I want to build enough knowledge for myself so that whatever questions are thrown at me, I can answer them confidently.

Use 'new material' (uncountable) rather than 'a new material'. 'Build enough knowledge for myself' corrects the preposition. Use 'so that' to introduce purpose and passive 'are thrown at me' is natural. Change 'answer it' to 'answer them' to agree with 'questions' (plural). Suggestion: watch countability of 'material', use correct prepositions, and ensure pronoun number agreement. Grammar problem type ID: 11

× And when I have that confidence in me, I will prefer scanning reading because I don't want to waste time and I will just kind of refresh the details.

✓ And when I have that confidence, I prefer scanning because I don't want to waste time and will just refresh the details.

'Confidence in me' is redundant; 'have that confidence' is sufficient. Use 'prefer scanning' (not 'prefer scanning reading'). Change future 'I will prefer' to simple present 'I prefer' to match the habitual sense. Remove filler 'kind of' for clarity. Suggestion: simplify redundant phrases, use correct noun forms, and choose tense that matches habitual actions. Grammar problem type ID: 27
