Brief Explanations
- Sentence 1: "Alejandro's guidance counselor is helping him plan his schedule for next year." - No error. The subject "guidance counselor" (singular) agrees with the verb "is helping" (singular).
- Sentence 2: "She suggests that he take AP Chemistry and AP French to improve his chances of getting into college." - No error. The verb "suggests" (singular) agrees with the subject "She" (singular). The subjunctive mood "take" is correct after "suggests that".
- Sentence 3: "Neither he nor his parents think he'll have time to do the work for both courses." - No error. In "neither...nor" constructions, the verb agrees with the closer subject. Here, "parents" (plural) is closer, and "think" (plural) is correct.
- Sentence 4: "Each of the teachers teach in a different way." - Error. The indefinite pronoun "Each" is singular. The correct verb form should be "teaches" (singular) instead of "teach" (plural).
