× it also provide me a very good atmosphere and environment.
✓ it also provides me a very good atmosphere and environment.
The verb 'provide' should be in the third person singular present tense 'provides' to agree with the singular subject 'it'. This is a subject-verb agreement issue.
× It look clean then.
✓ It looks clean then.
The verb 'look' should be in the third person singular present tense 'looks' to agree with the singular subject 'It'. This is a subject-verb agreement issue.
× when I'm reached to the library, umm, I usually, umm, seeking the book that I'm really passionate on,
✓ when I reach the library, umm, I usually, umm, seek the book that I'm really passionate about,
The phrase 'I'm reached' is incorrect; it should be 'I reach' in present tense to match the habitual action. Also, 'seeking' should be 'seek' to match the simple present tense. The preposition 'on' after 'passionate' should be 'about'.
× seeking the book that I'm really passionate on,
✓ seek the book that I'm really passionate about,
The correct preposition to use with 'passionate' is 'about', not 'on'.
× I love reading historical and literature book.
✓ I love reading historical and literature books.
The noun 'book' should be plural 'books' because it refers to more than one type of book.
× And one more thing, I just go there.
✓ And one more thing, I just go there to study.
The sentence is incomplete and unclear. Adding 'to study' clarifies the purpose and completes the sentence.
× when I was young I went to the library more often because, umm, it's time for me to focus on my studying rather than playing.
✓ when I was young I went to the library more often because, umm, it was time for me to focus on my studying rather than playing.
The phrase 'it's time' should be in past tense 'it was time' to match the past context.
× So umm, just went to the library and focus on studying, reading the book and.
✓ So umm, I just went to the library and focused on studying and reading books.
The sentence lacks a subject before 'just went' and the verb 'focus' should be in past tense 'focused' to match the past context. Also, 'reading the book and' is incomplete; it should be 'reading books'.
× And go to the library is not really focused on nationality.
✓ And going to the library is not really focused on nationality.
The verb 'go' should be in gerund form 'going' to function as the subject of the sentence.
× Even if you know Chinese or you are Cambodians or any nationality, you just go there and the purpose of it.
✓ Even if you are Chinese, Cambodian, or of any nationality, you just go there for the purpose of studying.
The sentence has incorrect noun forms and incomplete structure. 'Know Chinese' should be 'are Chinese', 'Cambodians' should be singular adjective 'Cambodian', and the sentence should be completed with the purpose.
× You just want to focus and concentrate on your studying. That's it.
✓ You just want to focus and concentrate on your studying; that's it.
Adding a semicolon improves sentence flow and clarity.
