Aim for 2–4 coherent sentences, and include concrete examples of situations when you choose each type of music.

× I prefer both of the music according to the situation.
✓ I prefer both kinds of music depending on the situation.
The phrase 'both of the music' is incorrect because 'both' requires a plural noun or 'both of the' followed by a determiner and plural noun; 'music' is an uncountable noun so use 'kinds of music' or simply 'both types of music'. Also 'according to' is unnatural here; 'depending on' fits better.
× Whenever I fail, I prefer to.
✓ Whenever I fail, I prefer sad music.
The sentence is incomplete and lacks a clear object after 'prefer to'. Replace the pronoun with a full phrase to complete the idea. This fixes sentence structure by providing the missing verb object.
× Whenever I feel low, I prefer to listen to the happy music because it helps to enhance my mood and boost my confidence level.
✓ Whenever I feel low, I prefer to listen to happy music because it helps enhance my mood and boost my confidence.
Use 'happy music' without the definite article because we speak generally. Omit 'to' before 'enhance' and 'to' before 'boost' after 'helps' for correct verb patterns. 'Confidence level' is wordy; 'confidence' is more natural.
× Whenever I I feel somewhat slow or have.
✓ Whenever I feel somewhat low or sluggish,
The sentence is fragmentary and has a duplicated word 'I I'. Provide a complete idea: use 'low or sluggish' to convey the intended meaning and end with a comma if continuing. Ensure sentences are complete.
× Happy music make me feel more excited because it helps to me to enhance my mood as much and boost my confidence level.
✓ Happy music makes me feel more excited because it helps me enhance my mood and boost my confidence.
Subject 'Happy music' is treated as singular, so the verb should be 'makes' not 'make' (third person singular agreement). Remove unnecessary 'to' after 'helps' and after 'helps' use base verbs 'enhance' and 'boost'. 'Helps me' is correct word order; 'as much' is unnecessary here.
× No, I don't take any kind of music classes, but when I I am free I try to listen the lyrics of the music on my mobile phone.
✓ No, I don't take any music classes, but when I am free I try to listen to the lyrics of songs on my mobile phone.
Use 'any music classes' rather than 'any kind of music classes' for natural phrasing. Remove duplicate 'I'. Use 'listen to' followed by 'the lyrics' or better 'lyrics of songs' because 'the lyrics of the music' is awkward. 'Songs' fits better than 'music' for lyrics.
× Yes, definitely, I listen to music while doing other things because it helps to enhance and boost my confidence level and I am not feel boring whenever I doing a variety of task.
✓ Yes, definitely. I listen to music while doing other things because it helps enhance and boost my confidence, and I am not bored when I do a variety of tasks.
Remove 'to' after 'helps' and use base verbs 'enhance' and 'boost'. 'I am not feel boring' is incorrect: use 'I am not bored' to describe feeling. 'Whenever I doing' is ungrammatical; use 'when I do'. Use plural 'tasks' for countable noun and add comma for clarity.
