Częsty błąd:
Learners sometimes say *"at this occurrence"* when they mean *"on this occasion"* or *"at this time"*. Use "occurrence" to name the event itself, not the time around it. Spelling is also difficult: it is "occurrence" (with double 'c' and double 'r'), not *"occurence"* or *"occurance"*.
