Do you often go to the library?
수험생
Not anymore. I haven't been to a library for about 8 years. Maybe this is mainly because there aren't libraries located near in my house and I prefer reading archives and online books 'cause it's more convenient rather than going to the library.

Do Chinese kids often go to the library?
수험생
I think so. I think they're very studious kids and their school systems is one of the most notorious I have heard as a Filipino kid. I have no idea what they they study, but I think so. They read a lot of books and I think that they have a lot of libraries.

The preposition 'near' should not be followed by 'in' when indicating proximity to a place. Also, 'more convenient rather than' is incorrect; the correct comparative structure is 'more convenient than'. In English (Philippines), we say 'near my house' not 'near in my house', and use 'more convenient than' to compare two things.
× Back when I was a student in college, I usually go to the library to make my assignments, research, and since there's a computer available there, I usually use the computer for still research.
✓ Back when I was a student in college, I usually went to the library to do my assignments and research, and since there was a computer available there, I usually used the computer for research.
The sentence refers to past habitual actions, so the verbs should be in the past tense ('went', 'did', 'used'). Also, 'make my assignments' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'do my assignments'. 'Still research' is unclear and likely incorrect; 'research' alone suffices. In English (Philippines), when talking about past habits, we use past tense verbs to match the time frame.
× I hadn't had any opportunity to go to a library when I was young because in my city I think there is no library conveniently located where where I was living.
✓ I didn't have any opportunity to go to a library when I was young because in my city I think there was no library conveniently located where I was living.
The past perfect 'hadn't had' is unnecessary here; simple past 'didn't have' is appropriate. Also, 'there is no library' should be in past tense 'there was no library' to match the past time frame. The repeated word 'where' is a typo and should be corrected. In English (Philippines), we use simple past tense to describe past situations and avoid unnecessary past perfect unless indicating a sequence of past events.
× I think they're very studious kids and their school systems is one of the most notorious I have heard as a Filipino kid.
✓ I think they're very studious kids and their school system is one of the most notorious I have heard of as a Filipino kid.
The subject 'school system' is singular, so the verb should be 'is'. Also, 'school systems' (plural) with 'is' (singular) is incorrect. The phrase 'most notorious I have heard' is incomplete; it should be 'most notorious I have heard of'. In English (Philippines), subject-verb agreement is important; singular subjects take singular verbs, and prepositions like 'of' are necessary in such expressions.
× I have no idea what they they study, but I think so.
✓ I have no idea what they study, but I think so.
The repeated pronoun 'they' is a typographical error and should be corrected to a single 'they'. In English (Philippines), avoid repeating pronouns unnecessarily to maintain clarity and correctness.
