About this exercise

Your Spanish 102 quiz is on ser vs. estar. Get a line starting "Rule:" under 40 words, then exactly 3 numbered fill-in-the-blank sentences in Spanish with "(ser/estar)" after each blank, then a line "Answers" and the key. Under 110 words, plain text. Your professor corrected one rule in your notes: where an event takes place uses ser, not estar, and one of the 3 sentences must test that.

Common mistakes when you ask AI for this

  • Not giving the correction. Your notes and many textbooks say location always uses estar, so the AI repeats that rule. Try: Add: "My professor said the location of an event uses ser."
  • Not testing the tricky case. The AI writes easy practice like 'Yo ___ cansado' and skips the case that's on your quiz. Try: Add: "One sentence must test where an event takes place."
  • Answers mixed in. The AI puts each answer next to its sentence, so you can't test yourself. Try: Add: "All answers after sentence 3 under a line that says Answers."
  • Getting a lecture. Ask to 'explain' and the AI writes long lists and tables, with no practice. Try: Ask for the shape: "Rule: line, 3 practice sentences, then Answers."
  • Forgetting where it's going. AI adds bold and headings that show up as stray symbols in a printed study sheet. Try: Add: "Plain text, no bold, no headings."

What a strong prompt includes

  • Gives the correction
  • Says how many sentences
