× I'm not really fond of singing, but I really am interested in the way all the work is done, For example the composing of the songs, the lyrics and even the tones and pitch that are considered for making a perfect song.
✓ I'm not really fond of singing, but I am really interested in how all the work is done. For example, the composing of songs, the lyrics, and even the tones and pitch considered in making a perfect song.
The phrase 'interested in the way all the work is done' is better expressed as 'interested in how all the work is done' for naturalness. Also, 'the composing of the songs' should be 'the composing of songs' because 'songs' is plural and general here. The sentence was a run-on and needed to be split for clarity. 'For example' should be followed by a comma. These changes improve clarity and grammatical correctness.
× No, I have never learned how to sing because as an introverted person, I did not have enough confidence and courage to perform in front of the public.
✓ No, I have never learned how to sing because, as an introverted person, I did not have enough confidence and courage to perform in front of the public.
A comma is needed after 'because' to separate the clause for better readability. The past tense 'did not have' is correct here because it refers to a past state. The sentence is otherwise correct.
× I think if I ever have to sing a song, I will surely dedicate it to my mother because I really appreciate how she had to go through all the hardships and endeavours to nurture us and to provide us with all the necessities.
✓ I think if I ever have to sing a song, I will surely dedicate it to my mother because I really appreciate how she went through all the hardships and endeavours to nurture us and provide us with all the necessities.
The phrase 'had to go through' is grammatically correct but 'went through' is more natural and direct in this context. Also, 'to provide us with all the necessities' is better without the second 'to' for parallelism. These changes improve the sentence's flow and clarity.
× Yes, I think singing and other sorts of art really help people to be happy and relaxed.
✓ Yes, I think singing and other forms of art really help people be happy and relaxed.
The phrase 'other sorts of art' is better expressed as 'other forms of art' for naturalness. Also, 'help people to be happy' is better as 'help people be happy' because 'help' is often followed by the bare infinitive without 'to'. These changes improve naturalness and correctness.
