Some adverbs not ending in "-ly" are always, soon, today, ever, yet.
"The Python interpreter has a number of functions and types built into it that are always available." [1]
"Long option values can be split across multiple lines simply by indenting the continuation lines." [2]
Agree with your teacher in that the first one seems fine.

- sorokod 3y agoI think that the advice is a bit more nuanced, your first example is fine as it is but consider the variants: "...that are clearly always available." "...that are obviously available." "...that are simply available." These adverbs are not only redundant but their presence suggest that things are actually not clear, simple or obvious.
