× Yes, I often go to the library because there I feel focused, driven and. Productive.
✓ Yes, I often go to the library because there I feel focused, driven, and productive.
The original sentence has a period after 'and' which incorrectly breaks the sentence. The correction removes the period and adds a comma to properly list the adjectives 'focused, driven, and productive' in one sentence.
× It has many resources to provide you to all the lectures.
✓ It has many resources to provide you with all the lectures.
The preposition 'to' is incorrectly used after 'provide you'. The correct preposition is 'with' when indicating what is provided to someone.
× 1st is I play an intellectual game to warm up my brain.
✓ First, I play an intellectual game to warm up my brain.
The phrase '1st is' is awkward and incorrect in this context. Using 'First,' as a transition word is clearer and grammatically correct.
× Then I read a book regarding on my course and then I review it.
✓ Then I read a book regarding my course and then I review it.
The phrase 'regarding on' is incorrect. The correct preposition to use with 'regarding' is none; 'regarding' stands alone without 'on'.
× Unfortunately, I did not go to any library when I was a kid because there were few in our city.
✓ Unfortunately, I did not go to any library when I was a kid because there were few libraries in our city.
The word 'few' is a quantifier that should be followed by a plural noun. 'Few' alone is incomplete; 'few libraries' is correct.
× The only library that I did go to was the school library.
✓ The only library that I went to was the school library.
Using 'did go to' is grammatically correct but less natural. 'I went to' is the simple past tense and more appropriate here.
× That was when I was in my first grade and I remember I would eat early at lunch so that I could go.
✓ That was when I was in first grade and I remember I would eat lunch early so that I could go.
The phrase 'in my first grade' is incorrect; 'in first grade' is the correct expression. Also, 'eat early at lunch' is awkward; 'eat lunch early' is clearer.
× Personally, I think Chinese students often go to the library because I've always viewed them as those students who value education that much.
✓ Personally, I think Chinese students often go to the library because I've always viewed them as students who value education that much.
The phrase 'those students' is unnecessary and awkward here. Simply 'students' is sufficient and more natural.
