REFLECTION (Job Interview for an Administrative Position)

# data[].attributes.body
In the Job Interview for an Administrative Position scenario, the participants use polite and respectful language. I want to highlight the use of greetings and formal words like Mr., which appear during the whole conversation. These expressions show a formal and respectful tone that is correct for a job interview. The dialogue is clear, and both people speak with a good attitude and respect.

Even though the dialogue is easy to understand, I can see some grammar and spelling mistakes that make the language less formal. For example, the sentence I’m agree should be I agree, and We going to assess should be We’re going to assess. There are also small mistakes like Wellcome instead of Welcome. These errors do not change the main idea, but they make the conversation sound less natural.

By finding these mistakes, I learned that grammar, spelling, and vocabulary are very important to communicate well in English. In the future, I will try to be more careful with auxiliary verbs and spelling. I also want to learn more formal expressions to speak better in professional situations.

Example 1 (Grammar): Change “I’m agree” to “I agree” because the verb agree does not use to be before it.

Example 2 (Vocabulary): Replace “Wellcome” with “Welcome” to correct the spelling and use appropriate greetings in formal contexts.

Example 3 (Detail): Instead of “We going to assess your experience”, say “We’re going to assess your experience and skills for the position” to make the message more complete and professional.

Suggestion: Reviewing common interview phrases and check verb forms (like be + ing and auxiliary verbs). Also, practicing formal expressions such as “It’s a pleasure to meet you” or “Thank you for the opportunity” helps sound more confident and natural.

Customer: Excuse me, could you please tell me if Can I buy a tie in this store?

Salesperson: Hello and welcome! Yes of course, let´s me show you some types of ties that we have in stock.

Customer: Wonderful, thank you.

Salesperson: Do you have in mind any specific color, material, brand, or other detail about the tie?

Customer: mmm not really, actually, it is for a present to my dad, so, I thing that it would be an elegant type, maybe a cold color, the brand not matter.

REFLECTION (Customer Service Interaction in a Department Store)

# data[].attributes.body
In this dialogue, the interaction between the customer and the salesperson is polite and clear. Both participants show respect and use expressions that are common in a shopping situation, such as greetings, requests, and thanks. The conversation follows a logical order and the customer’s goal is easy to understand. The language used is friendly and appropriate for a department store context.

However, I noticed that some expressions could be improved to make the dialogue sound more natural in English. For example, the sentence let’s me show you should be let me show you, and I thing should be I think. Also, cold color sounds unnatural; it is better to say cool color. Expressions like the brand not matter should be the brand doesn’t matter, and register the sell should be register the sale. Some phrases can also be more natural, like gift-wrapped with a card included instead of gift-wrapped included a present card, and reunions should be meetings.

Even though these small mistakes appear, the conversation is still understandable and communicates the message correctly. I learned that small grammar details and vocabulary choices can make a big difference in sounding natural and professional. In future dialogues, I will focus on improving sentence order, using correct verb forms, and choosing words that are common in everyday English. This will help me express myself more confidently in customer service situations.

Example 1 (Grammar): Let’s is the contraction of let us and means “vamos a…,” but in this case, the salesperson is offering to show something, so the correct form is let me.

Example 2 (Vocabulary): Replace “cold color” with “cool color” to use the correct adjective for describing color tones in English. Cold refers to temperature, while cool is used for color descriptions like blue or gray.

Example 3 (Detail): Instead of saying “It is for a present to my dad”, the customer could say “It’s a gift for my dad’s birthday” to give more context and make the conversation sound more natural and complete.

Suggestion: Review common store vocabulary and polite expressions such as “Would you like it gift-wrapped?” or “That’s our best seller this season.” Practicing with these phrases helps make the dialogue more fluent and realistic.

Scenario 1: Visa Interview – Language Analysis

# data[].attributes.body
Level of Formality / Register:
The language used in this scenario is formal and appropriate for an embassy interview. Both the visa officer and the applicant use polite expressions such as “Good morning” and clear, structured questions and answers. There is no use of slang or informal expressions.

Vocabulary Appropriateness:
The vocabulary is accurate for the context, focusing on travel-related topics such as “purpose of your trip,” “stay,” “relatives,” and “visit.” Valentina uses clear and direct language when explaining her intentions (“I’m going to visit my family and also to learn more about the culture”).

Grammar Accuracy:
The grammar is mostly correct and simple. Valentina uses the present continuous correctly (“I’m going to visit…”), and present simple for habits or facts (“I study Foreign Languages”). There is clear sentence structure, without major errors.

Pragmatic Use of Language:
The interaction shows politeness and respect, appropriate for a formal interview. Valentina answers briefly and directly, which matches cultural expectations in visa interviews (short and clear answers). The exchange respects turn-taking and appropriate forms of address.

# data[].attributes.body
In the visa interview scenario, the language used was generally clear, polite, and well adapted to the formal context of an embassy interview. One of the main strengths was the use of appropriate greetings and formal expressions, such as “Good morning” and “Thank you,” which helped to establish a respectful tone from the beginning of the interaction. The answers were short, direct, and relevant to the questions, which is essential in this type of interview. Another strength was the correct use of grammar and sentence structures. For example, Valentina used present continuous correctly in “I’m going to visit my family” and present simple in “I study Foreign Languages,” which made her answers sound natural and accurate.

However, there are some areas for improvement. Valentina could use slightly more detailed vocabulary when explaining her reasons for the trip. For instance, instead of simply saying “to learn more about the culture,” she could mention specific cultural activities or experiences she plans to have. This would make her answers richer and more convincing. Additionally, she could prepare a few phrases to sound more confident and fluent during the interview.

Overall, the communication was effective, respectful, and grammatically correct. By adding more precise vocabulary and expanding some answers, the interaction could sound even more professional and persuasive.

Scenario 2: Job Interview  – Language Analysis

# data[].attributes.body
Level of Formality / Register:
The overall register of the conversation remains formal, which is appropriate for a job interview context. Valentina greets politely (“Good afternoon. Thank you so much for receive me… I mean, for having me”) and maintains a respectful tone throughout the interaction. Despite some nervous hesitations and self-corrections, she does not use slang or informal expressions. The interviewer also uses polite and professional language, creating a welcoming environment. The slight hesitation and informal phrasing at times (e.g., “I like teaching very much because I think is a way to change the world”) reflect a natural nervousness rather than a lack of formality.

Vocabulary Appropriateness:
Most of the vocabulary used is suitable for a professional interview. Valentina employs educational terms such as “inclusive classrooms,” “playful activities,” “methodologies,” and “pedagogical practices,” which demonstrate her familiarity with the teaching field. She also uses personal expressions to convey motivation and values. However, there are a few inaccuracies and literal translations, such as “grow like a teacher” instead of “grow as a teacher,” and “thank you so much for receive me” instead of “for having me.” These errors are typical of non-native speakers under pressure and provide opportunities for improvement.

Grammar Accuracy:
Several grammatical errors appear in the conversation, many of which are common in spontaneous speech. For example, “I think is a way…” lacks the subject “it”; “I have work with…” should be “I have worked with”; and “I have hear a lot…” should be “I have heard a lot.” There are also a few instances of tense inconsistency (e.g., mixing present and present perfect). While these errors do not prevent understanding, they affect the overall accuracy of the language.

Pragmatic Use of Language:
Pragmatically, the conversation is very effective. Valentina expresses gratitude, motivation, and respect throughout the interview. She responds appropriately to the interviewer’s questions, gives personal examples, and acknowledges her nervousness in a way that humanizes the interaction. She uses turn-taking naturally and demonstrates reflective thinking (“Sometimes I make mistakes, but I always reflect after the class to improve”), which aligns with cultural expectations in teacher interviews. The occasional pauses and self-corrections are realistic and do not negatively impact the communication.

# data[].attributes.body
In this job interview scenario, the language used reflects both a formal context and the natural nervousness of a real interview situation. One of the main strengths is the maintenance of a respectful and professional tone throughout the conversation. Valentina greets politely and expresses gratitude, which helps to establish a positive atmosphere. She uses relevant vocabulary related to education, such as “inclusive classrooms,” “playful activities,” “methodologies,” and “pedagogical practices,” showing that she is familiar with the professional language of teaching. Another strength is her ability to provide personal and reflective answers, for example when she mentions feeling nervous but becoming comfortable with her students. This gives authenticity and shows self-awareness.

However, there are several grammatical and lexical errors that affect the overall accuracy of the language. Examples include “Thank you so much for receive me” instead of “for having me,” “I think is a way” instead of “I think it is a way,” and “I have work with” instead of “I have worked with.” These are common mistakes in spontaneous speech, especially under pressure. There are also literal translations, such as “grow like a teacher,” that could be improved to sound more natural.

To enhance her performance, Valentina could practice typical interview phrases in advance to increase fluency and confidence. Reviewing participle forms, conditional structures, and filler phrases could help her speak more accurately under pressure. Despite the errors, the conversation effectively communicates her motivation, respect, and teaching philosophy, making it overall a strong and realistic interaction.

Scenario 2: Job Interview – Specific Examples and Suggestions

Scenario 2: Job Interview – Specific Examples and Suggestions

# data[].attributes.body
Example 1 (Grammar – Infinitive / Gerund):
- “Thank you so much for receive me.”
- “Thank you so much for receiving me.” / “Thank you for having me.”
The original sentence uses the base form “receive” incorrectly after “for.” The gerund “receiving” is required. Alternatively, “for having me” is a more natural and formal expression for interviews.

Example 2 (Grammar – Missing Subject):
- “I think is a way to change the world.”
- “I think it is a way to change the world.”
The subject “it” was missing, which is a common mistake in spontaneous speech. Adding it improves grammatical accuracy.

Example 3 (Grammar – Present Perfect):
- “I have work with preschool and first grade students.”
- “I have worked with preschool and first grade students.”
The present perfect form requires the past participle “worked,” not the base verb “work.”

Example 4 (Vocabulary – Literal Translation):
- “I would love to work here and grow like a teacher.”
- “I would love to work here and grow as a teacher.”
The preposition “like” is a literal translation from Spanish. “As a teacher” is the correct expression in English for roles or positions.

Example 5 (Vocabulary – Past Participle):
- “I have hear a lot of good things about your school.”
- “I have heard a lot of good things about your school.”
The correct past participle of “hear” is “heard.” This is a common error among learners under pressure.

Example 6 (Structure / Strategy):
Suggestion: Before the interview, Valentina could prepare some “key phrases” and practice common answers (e.g., “One of my strengths is…” / “If I face a challenge in class, I usually…”).
Practicing these structures increases fluency, reduces hesitation, and minimizes basic grammar errors during real interviews

In the loan application interview, the client's answers were clearly articulated, as was the advisor's well-structured questions. The correct use of verb tenses and appropriate vocabulary for a financial context were also evident.

However, some phrases could be improved by using connectives or more fluid expressions, such as "On the other hand" or "In that case." "I wish" could also be replaced with "I would like" at certain points to sound more natural without losing formality.

Overall, the dialogue reflects a credible, everyday situation and demonstrates an understanding of formal linguistic register, which is essential when dealing with institutional procedures.

Yeini: Yes, Doctor. I'm very interested in a career in Education, especially in the area of ​​English teaching.

Dr. Morales: Excellent choice. It's a field with great potential. Could you tell me a little about why you chose this career?

Yeini: Since I was little, I've loved teaching and helping others learn. I'm also passionate about languages, and I think being an English teacher would allow me to combine both.

Dr. Morales: Very good motivation. Here at the school, we're looking for exactly that profile: young people with a vocation for teaching and a social commitment.

Yeini: Yes, I'd like to know what the curriculum is like and if there are internship opportunities for those in the early years.

Dr. Morales: Of course. The program includes theoretical and practical courses starting in the second semester. We also have agreements with schools where students can do observations and supervised internships.

The dialogue between Dr. Morales and applicant Yeini Pérez demonstrates appropriate use of formal and courteous language, appropriate for an admissions interview. Among the main strengths is the use of polite expressions such as "Good morning," "Thank you very much," and "Glad to meet you," which contribute to creating a respectful and professional environment. Furthermore, Yeini's responses reflect clarity and coherence in expressing her motivations and interests, demonstrating a command of academic register and good organization of ideas. The vocabulary used—terms such as "teaching vocation," "social commitment," and "supervised internship"—is relevant and demonstrates an understanding of the educational context.

However, there are some areas for improvement that could make communication more precise and natural. For example, Dr. Morales addresses the applicant as "Yeini" at the end, which breaks the coherence of the dialogue and can lead to confusion. Likewise, certain expressions could be rephrased to sound more natural in English, such as replacing "being an English teacher" with "becoming an English teacher" or using more varied connectives to streamline the discourse. The use of titles and greetings could also be reviewed, avoiding unnecessary repetitions of "doctor" or "doctor" in consecutive interventions.

Overall, the language used in this scenario effectively achieves its communicative purpose. With minor adjustments to vocabulary precision, consistency, and the use of polite expressions, the interaction could achieve a more fluid, professional, and authentic level of communication, appropriate for a real-life academic context.

SPECIFIC EXAMPLES AND SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT OF

SCENARIO 1: UNIVERSITY ADMISSION INTERVIEW.

# data[].attributes.body
This dialogue is already very clear and natural, but a few minor grammatical and phrasing

corrections can make it sound even more fluent and professional.

Example 1. It is suggested to consider the use of the Simple Present Interrogative in the following form.

Original: Are you interested in studying with us?

Correction: Are you interested in studying here with us?

Explanation: Adding "here" makes the question sound more natural in spoken English.

Example 2. It is suggested to use the gerund and also the infinitive in the following form:

Original: I am very interested in a career in Education, especially in being an English teacher.

Correction: I am very interested in pursuing a career in Education, especially in being an English teacher.

Explanation: "Interested in + -ing" is correct, but "pursuing a career" is more academic and formal.

"Becoming" fits better after "interested in."

It's also important to remember to replace "being" with "becoming" when referring to professions.

Example: "I'm interested in being a nurse."

Example 3. It's important to maintain clarity and grammatical accuracy, so it's suggested to work in the following way.

Original: Very motivating. At school, we're looking for exactly that profile...

Correction: That's very motivating. At our school, we're looking for exactly that kind of profile...

Explanation: "Very motivating" sounds like an adjective fragment. Adding "That's" creates a complete sentence.

"Precisely that profile" is understandable, but "exactly that kind of profile" is more idiomatic.

Example 4. Keep in mind the present perfect tense so that it's used as follows:

Explanation of scholarships

Original: You can apply for them once you're admitted.

Correction: You can apply for them once you're admitted.

Explanation: The present perfect ("they have been admitted") connects the past action with the present moment. It sounds more refined and precise. It's also suggested to keep in mind that comparing the simple present and the present perfect in timelines.

Example: "After submitting your documents, you will receive an email."

From the initial greeting, courtesy and closeness are evident: expressions such as "Good morning, miss. Please come in and sit down" established an atmosphere of trust and respect.

Regarding the patient, her language is natural and collaborative; she responds clearly and shows a willingness to follow medical instructions. The conversation flows coherently and maintains a level of formality appropriate for the situation.

Overall, the dialogue demonstrates an appropriate use of professional and human language, essential in medical care. Small adjustments to the vocabulary and expression range could make it even more fluid and empathetic, thus strengthening communication between doctor and patient.

The scenario has adequate vocabulary and uses terms related to the topic being discussed; however, the following improvements are suggested to make the dialogue more grammatically fluid.

1. Grammar examples to highlight

Example 1. It is suggested to use greetings and polite expressions using the simple present tense, as follows:

Dr. López: Good morning, miss. Please come in and have a seat.

Grammar focus: Imperatives and polite expressions.

“Come in,” “Have a seat” → examples of polite imperatives.

“Good morning” → standard greeting in the simple present tense.

Practical tip: Imperatives in English can sound polite when softened with words like please or a friendly tone.

Example: “Please sit down” is more polite than “Sit down.”

Example 2. It is suggested to use the present perfect for recent experiences, in this case, it is suggested to use it as follows:

Yeini: I've been feeling a little unwell for a few days.

Grammar Focus: Present Perfect Continuous (“have/has been + -ing”).

Example 3. It is suggested to use the simple present tense for information/instructions. In this case, it is suggested to use it in the following way:

Dr. López: Your temperature is a little high, but your blood pressure is normal and your lungs seem fine.

Practical Tip: The simple present tense is used to describe facts or states that are true now.

Example: “Water boils at 100°C.”

Example 4. The correct use of modal verbs is suggested for advice.

Dr. López: You should come back for some tests.

Practical Tip: “Should” is a modal verb used to give moderate advice or recommendations.

Example: “You should drink more water.”

Polite Imperatives   -Please come in. Take a seat.-  imperatives (base form of the verb) are used for instructions. The word please makes the command polite.

“Please fill out this form.” / “Please have a seat.”
