× I like seeing actually because seeing helps me feel relaxed when I do so and helps me relieve my stress.

✓ I like singing actually because singing helps me feel relaxed when I do so and helps me relieve my stress.

The student used 'seeing' instead of 'singing', which is likely a confusion between similar sounding words. Since the question is about singing, the correct gerund form is 'singing'. This is a verb + -ing form issue (ID 8).

× But I don't act like that. I'm like singing because I feel shy when singing in front of others.

✓ But I don't act like that. I like singing because I feel shy when singing in front of others.

The phrase 'I'm like singing' is incorrect; the student likely meant 'I like singing'. 'Like' is a verb and should not be preceded by 'am'. This is a verb + -ing form issue (ID 8).

× Yes, I learned how to sing when I was in high school because we have a chorus task which requires everyone to learn to sing and sing it well.

✓ Yes, I learned how to sing when I was in high school because we had a chorus task which required everyone to learn to sing and sing it well.

The sentence mixes past and present tense incorrectly. Since the event happened in the past, 'have' and 'requires' should be changed to past tense 'had' and 'required'. This is a past tense issue (ID 5).

× And I also learned how to sing in kindergarten because my mom thought it's a good way to cultivate my confidence.

✓ And I also learned how to sing in kindergarten because my mom thought it was a good way to cultivate my confidence.

The phrase 'it's a good way' is present tense, but the context is past ('my mom thought'). It should be 'it was a good way' to maintain past tense consistency. This is a past tense issue (ID 5).

× I want to sing for my grandma because she raised me up and before I made any achievements she passed away of a serious brain cancer so I really wanted to sing in front of her and tell her how deep I love her and I hope so.

✓ I want to sing for my grandma because she raised me and before I made any achievements she passed away from a serious brain cancer so I really wanted to sing in front of her and tell her how deeply I love her and I hope so.

'Raised me up' is better as 'raised me' since 'raise up' is less common in this context. 'Passed away of' should be 'passed away from'. 'How deep I love her' should be 'how deeply I love her' because 'deeply' is the adverb modifying 'love'. These are issues of preposition use (ID 11) and adjective/adverb use (ID 13).

× she passed away of a serious brain cancer

✓ she passed away from a serious brain cancer

The correct preposition after 'passed away' when indicating cause is 'from', not 'of'. This is an incorrect use of prepositions (ID 11).

× tell her how deep I love her

✓ tell her how deeply I love her

The verb 'love' should be modified by an adverb, so 'deep' (an adjective) should be changed to 'deeply' (an adverb). This is an incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs (ID 13).

× by singing people can live up their mood and improve themselves.

✓ by singing people can lift up their mood and improve themselves.

The phrase 'live up their mood' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'lift up their mood'. This is an incorrect use of prepositions (ID 11).
