Grammar

Article errors

× Yes, I do visit library quite often as it helps to increase my focus due to its peaceful environment.

Yes, I do visit the library quite often as it helps to increase my focus due to its peaceful environment.

The noun 'library' is a singular countable noun and requires the definite article 'the' when referring to a specific place known to both speaker and listener. Omitting 'the' before 'library' is incorrect in this context.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I tend to learn better while studying in the library than in other places.

I tend to learn better while studying at the library than in other places.

The preposition 'at' is more appropriate when referring to being present at a specific location like 'library'. Using 'in' is not incorrect but 'at' is preferred for places like libraries.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× So during my exam times I go there with my own set of books to read but when I am free or laser I go there to read novels and articles to increase my knowledge.

So during my exam times I go there with my own set of books to read but when I am free or later I go there to read novels and articles to increase my knowledge.

The word 'laser' is a typographical error and should be 'later'. This correction ensures the sentence makes sense and the pronoun usage is correct.

Singular and plural issue

× In my country not much people go to the library and when I was a kid I was unknown about the library.

In my country not many people go to the library and when I was a kid I was unaware of the library.

The quantifier 'much' is used with uncountable nouns, but 'people' is countable plural, so 'many' is correct. Also, 'unknown about' is incorrect; 'unaware of' is the proper phrase.

Sentence structure errors

× It was when I grew up I started to know about library in college schools and from there I started to go there to read.

It was when I grew up that I started to learn about the library in college and schools, and from there I started to go there to read.

The sentence lacks the conjunction 'that' after 'It was when I grew up' to form a proper cleft sentence. Also, 'know about library' is awkward; 'learn about the library' is better. 'College schools' is unclear; separating 'college and schools' clarifies meaning.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Yes, Chinese kids often go to the library as it is very helpful for them to focus on quiet and peaceful environment.

Yes, Chinese kids often go to the library as it is very helpful for them to focus in a quiet and peaceful environment.

The preposition 'in' is appropriate when referring to focusing within an environment. Also, the article 'a' is needed before 'quiet and peaceful environment' because it is a singular countable noun phrase.
