Here are the 15 most common grammar mistakes Class 6 students make in 2025–26 with super-simple fixes that TUTRAIN students use to score 90–100 in English.

1. Wrong Tense (Biggest Marks Killer)

Mistake: “Yesterday I go to market.”

Correct: Yesterday I went to the market.

Fix → Learn only 3 tenses properly: Present Simple, Past Simple, Future Simple

2. Missing Articles (a, an, the)

Mistake: “I saw elephant in zoo.”

Correct: I saw an elephant in the zoo.

Fix → a/an = before one thing | the = specific thing

3. Subject-Verb Agreement

Mistake: “They plays football.”

Correct: They play football.

Fix → He/She/It → adds s | I/You/We/They → no s

4. Wrong Prepositions

Mistake: “I am good in English.”

Correct: I am good at English.

Common ones → in/on/at, for/since, with/by

5. Double Negative (Teacher Hates This)

Mistake: “I don’t have nothing.”

Correct: I don’t have anything. OR I have nothing.

6. Wrong Pronoun

Mistake: “Me and my friend went…”
