× Actually, yes, I love singing because when I'm singing I feel. Comfort and stressless, Feeling better about everything.
✓ Actually, yes, I love singing because when I'm singing, I feel comfortable and stress-free, and I feel better about everything.
The original sentence has sentence fragments and incorrect word forms. 'Comfort' is a noun, but the sentence needs an adjective 'comfortable'. 'Stressless' is not a standard adjective; 'stress-free' is correct. Also, the sentence fragments need to be combined properly to form a complete sentence.
× Actually, I have never learned how to sing because I was focused on other hobbies when I was a schoolgirl, so I never had the opportunity.
✓ Actually, I have never learned how to sing because I was focused on other hobbies when I was a schoolgirl, so I never had the opportunity.
No correction needed here as the sentence correctly uses the present perfect 'have never learned' and past tense 'was focused' and 'had' appropriately.
× However, I'm interested in learning in the future because I think singing can be a great way to express myself and relieve stress.
✓ However, I'm interested in learning in the future because I think singing can be a great way to express myself and relieve stress.
No correction needed; the prepositions are used correctly.
× Ah, I really want to sing for my mom because I think she has a great voice too, but she never had the chance to learn and show off to another person so.
✓ Ah, I really want to sing for my mom because I think she has a great voice too, but she never had the chance to learn and show it to another person.
The phrase 'show off to another person so' is incomplete and awkward. 'Show off' is informal and usually followed by 'to' plus a person, but here 'show it' (referring to her voice) is clearer. The word 'so' at the end is unnecessary and should be removed.
× Yes, I've been singing and music. Both are international and the best way to share our feelings to another people and another person. So yeah, for myself, singing bring happiness.
✓ Yes, I've been singing and listening to music. Both are international and the best ways to share our feelings with other people. So yeah, for me, singing brings happiness.
The original sentence has pronoun misuse and awkward phrasing. 'I've been singing and music' is incomplete; 'listening to music' clarifies the meaning. 'Another people and another person' is incorrect; 'other people' is correct. 'Share our feelings to' should be 'share our feelings with'. 'For myself' is better as 'for me'. 'Singing bring' should be 'singing brings' to agree with singular subject.
