Grammar
× So in order to improve, she thought it was nice I get to Dance Academy.
✓ So in order to improve, she thought it was nice for me to go to Dance Academy.
The original sentence incorrectly uses 'I get to Dance Academy' which is ungrammatical. The correct modal verb construction here is 'for me to go to Dance Academy' to express purpose or intention. Using 'get to' is informal and does not fit the intended meaning. The suggestion improves clarity and grammatical correctness.
