× Whenever I feel so low in my life, I prefer to talk to my one of my friend.

✓ Whenever I feel so low in my life, I prefer to talk to one of my friends.

The phrase 'my one of my friend' is incorrect because 'one of' should be followed by a plural noun. The correct phrase is 'one of my friends' to indicate a single friend among multiple friends.

× I usually prefer to chat about my life, my problems, what I'm doing in my life and also in my free time.

✓ I usually prefer to chat about my life, my problems, what I'm doing in my life, and also about my free time.

The phrase 'also in my free time' is unclear and inconsistent with the previous items. Adding 'about' before 'my free time' clarifies the meaning and maintains parallel structure.

× I used to chat with my friends about planning a trip or getting something new.

✓ I usually chat with my friends about planning a trip or getting something new.

The question asks about usual habits, so present tense is appropriate. 'Used to' implies past habits no longer done, which conflicts with the question's context.

× I prefer to chat with only one friend that I can feel.

✓ I prefer to chat with only one friend whom I can trust.

The phrase 'that I can feel' is unclear and incorrect. Likely, the student meant 'whom I can trust' or 'feel comfortable with.' Also, 'that' should be 'whom' when referring to a person as an object.

× so they're one of my friend who's my Beth best friend.

✓ so she is one of my friends who is my best friend.

'They're' (they are) is incorrect when referring to a single person; 'she is' is correct. 'One of my friend' should be 'one of my friends' because 'one of' requires a plural noun. 'Beth' is likely a typo for 'best.'

× She give me a lot of great advices how to be.

✓ She gives me a lot of great advice on how to be.

The verb 'give' must agree with the third person singular subject 'She,' so it should be 'gives.' Also, 'advices' is incorrect; 'advice' is an uncountable noun. Adding 'on' before 'how to be' improves clarity.

× I prefer to communicate face to face rather than via media because when you are communicating with each other face to face, you can show your emotions more clearly and you can communicate clearly to each other.

✓ I prefer to communicate face to face rather than via social media because when you communicate face to face, you can show your emotions more clearly and communicate clearly with each other.

'Via media' is vague; 'via social media' is more precise. Also, 'communicate clearly to each other' should be 'communicate clearly with each other' for correct preposition use. Repetition of 'you are communicating' is simplified to 'you communicate' for clarity.

× She give me a lot of great advices how to be.

✓ She gives me a lot of great advice on how to be.

The verb 'give' must be conjugated as 'gives' to agree with the third person singular subject 'She.' Also, 'advices' is incorrect; 'advice' is uncountable and does not take a plural form.

× they are not trying to listen about my perspective.

✓ they are not trying to listen to my perspective.

The verb 'listen' is followed by the preposition 'to,' not 'about.' Therefore, the correct phrase is 'listen to my perspective.'
