× That the reason that makes me don't like singing.
✓ That is the reason that makes me not like singing.
The original sentence lacks the verb 'is' to form a complete sentence, and 'don't' should be 'not' after 'makes me' to maintain correct sentence structure and negation.
× Yes, When I grow up, I used to sing because I had the ambition that I want to be a gospel music singer.
✓ Yes, when I grew up, I used to sing because I had the ambition to be a gospel music singer.
The phrase 'When I grow up' should be in past tense 'When I grew up' to match the past context. Also, 'that I want to be' should be 'to be' to correctly express the ambition.
× But at the time goes on, I realized that I'm not a good singer.
✓ But as time went on, I realized that I was not a good singer.
The phrase 'at the time goes on' is incorrect; it should be 'as time went on' to indicate past progression. Also, 'I'm not' should be 'I was not' to maintain past tense consistency.
