Here are the corrections for each sentence:

Error: "Neither the students nor the teacher were aware of the schedule change."

  • Correction: "Neither the students nor the teacher was aware of the schedule change."
  • Explanation: When "neither/nor" is used, the verb agrees with the subject closer to it, which is "the teacher" (singular), so the correct verb is "was."

Error: "They were excited during the upcoming concert."

  • Correction: "They were excited about the upcoming concert."
  • Explanation: The preposition "during" is incorrect here; "about" should be used to indicate their excitement for something that will happen.

Error: "He studied hard although he could pass the exam."

  • Correction: "He studied hard so that he could pass the exam."
  • Explanation: "Although" is used for contrast, but the sentence expresses purpose, so "so that" is the appropriate conjunction
