× Why absolutely yes.
✓ Why, absolutely yes.
The sentence lacks a comma after 'Why' to separate the interjection from the rest of the sentence, making it clearer and grammatically correct.
× my mom normally goes to church evening services and I enjoy the atmosphere singing and praising to God.
✓ my mom normally goes to church evening services and I enjoy the atmosphere of singing and praising to God.
The phrase 'enjoy the atmosphere singing' is missing the preposition 'of' to correctly link 'atmosphere' with the gerund phrase 'singing and praising to God'.
× For instance, 2 years ago I was invited to sing for my secondary school.
✓ For instance, 2 years ago I was invited to sing for my secondary school choir.
The sentence is incomplete or unclear; adding 'choir' clarifies the plural group for which the student was invited to sing, making the sentence more precise.
× I have learned how to sing many songs from my friend Bola.
✓ I learned how to sing many songs from my friend Bola.
Since the action happened in the past and is completed, the simple past tense 'learned' is more appropriate than the present perfect 'have learned'.
× I went for a practice where we had our rehearsal on how to sing different songs and I did very well.
✓ I went to a practice where we had our rehearsal on how to sing different songs and I did very well.
The correct preposition to indicate attending a practice session is 'to' rather than 'for'.
× She has been a source of inspiration to me growing up and my mom took care of I am my siblings.
✓ She has been a source of inspiration to me growing up and my mom took care of me and my siblings.
The pronoun 'I am' is incorrect here; the correct object pronoun 'me' should be used after the preposition 'of'.
× I wish I can have a quiet moment with her where I will express how I feel and gratitude with a song I.
✓ I wish I could have a quiet moment with her where I will express how I feel and my gratitude with a song.
The sentence has tense inconsistency and awkward phrasing; 'can' should be 'could' to express a wish, and 'gratitude with a song I' is reordered to 'my gratitude with a song' for clarity.
× Certainly, it has been my biggest motivation and searing music that motivates me.
✓ Certainly, it has been my biggest motivation and singing music that motivates me.
The word 'searing' is incorrect here; the intended word is 'singing' to describe the music that motivates the speaker.
