× I think I was affected by my family tradition for enjoying music.
✓ I think I was affected by my family tradition of enjoying music.
The preposition 'for' is incorrectly used here. The correct preposition to express the cause or basis of the tradition is 'of'. So, 'tradition of enjoying music' is the proper phrase.
× They always make sure that music is turned on in my house and I just listen to it and sing with it.
✓ They always make sure that music is turned on in my house and I just listen to it and sing along with it.
The phrase 'sing with it' is incorrect. The correct expression is 'sing along with it' when referring to singing together with music.
× I have been on a training for a very long time and once I graduate high school, I'll be applying in a musical university.
✓ I have been in training for a very long time and once I graduate from high school, I'll be applying to a music university.
The phrase 'been on a training' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'been in training'. Also, 'graduate high school' needs the preposition 'from'. Finally, 'applying in a musical university' should be 'applying to a music university'.
× I want to show my talent, my passion for music to the whole world and I have a very special voice, so I think I'll make them love me from the first hearing.
✓ I want to show my talent, my passion for music to the whole world and I have a very special voice, so I think I'll make them love me from the first hearing.
No correction needed for prepositions in this sentence.
× Like, for example, when I'm sad, I turn on happy music and dance to it, sing to it, and it's really helped me heal.
✓ Like, for example, when I'm sad, I turn on happy music and dance to it, sing to it, and it really helps me heal.
The phrase 'it's really helped me heal' mixes present and past tense incorrectly. Since the context is habitual action, present tense 'it really helps me heal' is appropriate.
