Part 1
Examiner
Do you often go to the library?
Candidate
Yes, especially during the finals because I have to study for exams and preparing for the finals and during this period of time so many students will go to the library for self studying. So that's why I have to go to the library earlier to get the seats.
Examiner
What do you usually do in the library?
Candidate
I usually complete the assignments with my coursemates because there is a discussion room provided where it has the monitors and tables, chairs for us to discuss and I really like the environment there because it helps me to concentrate better.
Examiner
Did you go to the library when you were a kid?
Candidate
I've never went to the library when I was a kid because after the school I just complete my homework as soon as possible and hang out with my friends, but I go to the library regularly during the university life.

Do Chinese kids often go to the library?
Candidate
Yes, I believe so because I assume Chinese kids are the most hardworking and delicate students among three races in Malaysia. Every time I went to the library, I can saw, I saw, I see there is a greater number of Chinese students than the other.

× I have to study for exams and preparing for the finals and during this period of time so many students will go to the library for self studying.
✓ I have to study for exams and prepare for the finals, and during this period of time so many students will go to the library for self-studying.
After 'have to', the base form of the verb should be used, not the '-ing' form. Therefore, 'preparing' should be corrected to 'prepare'. Also, 'self studying' should be hyphenated as 'self-studying' to form a compound noun.
× I've never went to the library when I was a kid because after the school I just complete my homework as soon as possible and hang out with my friends, but I go to the library regularly during the university life.
✓ I've never gone to the library when I was a kid because after school I just completed my homework as soon as possible and hung out with my friends, but I go to the library regularly during university life.
The present perfect tense requires the past participle form of the verb, so 'went' should be 'gone'. Also, 'complete' and 'hang out' should be in the past tense 'completed' and 'hung out' to match the past time frame. 'After the school' should be 'after school' and 'during the university life' should be 'during university life' for natural phrasing.
× Every time I went to the library, I can saw, I saw, I see there is a greater number of Chinese students than the other.
✓ Every time I went to the library, I could see there was a greater number of Chinese students than the others.
The modal verb 'can' should be in the past form 'could' to match 'went'. 'Saw' is past tense and should not be repeated; 'could see' is sufficient. 'There is' should be 'there was' to maintain past tense consistency. 'Than the other' should be 'than the others' to correctly compare groups.
