Grammar

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Not as much as I would like, however I try to read when I can at home due to family and as well working.

Not as much as I would like; however, I try to read when I can at home due to family commitments and also work.

The phrase 'due to family and as well working' is incorrect because 'due to' should be followed by a noun or noun phrase. 'Family' alone is vague; 'family commitments' is clearer. 'As well working' is ungrammatical; 'also work' or 'work commitments' is better. Additionally, a semicolon and comma improve sentence clarity.

There be issue

× I haven't been able to visit library lately but definitely it's one of my favorite places to visit.

I haven't been able to visit the library lately, but definitely it's one of my favourite places to visit.

The noun 'library' requires the definite article 'the' because it refers to a specific place known to both speaker and listener. Omitting 'the' is a common error in English.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I try to read research books as about medicine as they help me for my professional side and as well sometimes I love to read love stories and fiction.

I try to read research books about medicine as they help me professionally, and sometimes I also love to read love stories and fiction.

The phrase 'as about medicine' is incorrect; 'about medicine' suffices. 'Help me for my professional side' is awkward; 'help me professionally' is clearer. 'As well sometimes' is better expressed as 'sometimes I also' or 'I also sometimes'.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× Yes, I used to go very often in the library when I was a kid.

Yes, I used to go to the library very often when I was a kid.

The preposition 'in' is incorrect here; the correct preposition is 'to' when indicating going to a place. Also, 'very often' is better placed after the verb phrase for natural English word order.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× My parents used to take us every week in there to take books and sometimes to read home as well.

My parents used to take us there every week to borrow books and sometimes to read at home as well.

The phrase 'take us every week in there' is incorrect; 'take us there every week' is correct. 'Take books' is unnatural; 'borrow books' is the correct collocation. 'Read home' should be 'read at home' to use the correct preposition.

Sentence structure errors

× Used to be one of my favorite places and spending time.

It used to be one of my favourite places to spend time.

The original sentence lacks a subject and proper verb structure. Starting with 'Used to be' is incomplete. Adding 'It' as subject and restructuring to 'used to be one of my favourite places to spend time' corrects the sentence.

Incorrect use of prepositions

× I believe they go off into the library as the Chinese kids are very much orientated at studying and focusing in better future and development, so I believe they go very often.

I believe they go to the library often because Chinese kids are very much oriented towards studying and focusing on a better future and development.

The phrase 'go off into the library' is unnatural; 'go to the library' is correct. 'Orientated at studying' should be 'oriented towards studying'. 'Focusing in better future' should be 'focusing on a better future'. Also, 'so I believe they go very often' is redundant and can be omitted or integrated more smoothly.
