× ...before browsing through the market an purchasing unnecessary things.
✓ ...before browsing through the market and purchasing unnecessary things.
The word 'an' is a typo and should be 'and' to correctly connect the two actions 'browsing' and 'purchasing'. Using 'an' here is incorrect as it is an article, not a conjunction.
× It works for me and it was so great that I always make sure to plan everything in my work or my shopping or anything related as he tells me to prioritize the important things...
✓ It works for me and it is so great that I always make sure to plan everything in my work or my shopping or anything related as he tells me to prioritize the important things...
The phrase 'it was so great' is inconsistent with the present tense context. Since the student is talking about a current habit, 'it is so great' is appropriate to maintain present tense consistency.
× Maybe because they don't wanna, maybe because they feel restrictive. Or tie down to the list instead of. Choosing their own freedom.
✓ Maybe because they don't want to, maybe because they feel restricted or tied down to the list instead of choosing their own freedom.
The original sentences are fragmented and incomplete. 'Wanna' is informal and should be 'want to'. 'Feel restrictive' should be 'feel restricted' to correctly describe feelings. The phrase 'tie down to the list instead of. Choosing their own freedom.' is fragmented and should be combined into a complete sentence for clarity.
× I don't need to bring a pen or paper on our public places or something like that.
✓ I don't need to bring a pen or paper to public places or something like that.
The preposition 'on' is incorrect when referring to 'public places'. The correct preposition is 'to' when indicating movement or bringing something to a location.
