× the most favorite activities of our free time is chatting and we like to meet up and have long conversation

✓ the most favorite activities of our free time are chatting and we like to meet up and have long conversations

The subject 'activities' is plural, so the verb should be 'are' instead of 'is'. Also, 'conversation' should be plural 'conversations' to match the plural context. In English, subject-verb agreement requires the verb to agree in number with the subject. Here, 'activities' is plural, so use 'are'. Similarly, 'conversations' is plural to indicate multiple instances.

× Recently we talked about agency results and we felt really disappointed because some of us didn't get much we expected

✓ Recently we talked about agency results and we felt really disappointed because some of us didn't get as much as we expected

The phrase 'didn't get much we expected' is incorrect. The correct form is 'didn't get as much as we expected' to express the comparison properly. In English, when comparing quantities, 'as much as' is used to indicate the expected amount.

× I can explain more freely without, uh, feeling overwhelmed with just one in one conversation

✓ I can explain more freely without, uh, feeling overwhelmed with just one-on-one conversation

The phrase 'just one in one conversation' is incorrect. The correct expression is 'just one-on-one conversation' which is a fixed phrase meaning a conversation between two people. Using the correct phrase improves clarity and grammatical correctness.

× I feel embarrassed and awkward whenever I talk to someone face and face to face and it makes me awkward

✓ I feel embarrassed and awkward whenever I talk to someone face to face and it makes me awkward

The phrase 'face and face to face' is incorrect. The correct prepositional phrase is 'face to face' meaning in person. Removing the extra 'and face' corrects the preposition usage.

× We don't share them brain we are

✓ We don't share the same brain

The phrase 'share them brain we are' is incorrect. The correct phrase is 'share the same brain' meaning we think differently. The pronoun 'them' is incorrect here; 'the same' is the correct adjective phrase to express similarity.

× Sometimes we get connected with each other but sometimes we don't

✓ Sometimes we get along with each other but sometimes we don't

The phrase 'get connected with each other' is awkward. The correct expression is 'get along with each other' meaning to have a good relationship. Using the correct conjunction and phrase improves clarity.
