× I like to do the other work instead, like watching a video or scrolling my phone or learning something new.

✓ I like doing other things instead, like watching videos, scrolling through my phone, or learning something new.

The verb 'like' is commonly followed by the gerund form (-ing) when expressing preferences for activities. Also, 'the other work' is vague; 'other things' is more natural here. Additionally, plural forms 'videos' and the phrase 'scrolling through my phone' are more idiomatic.

× I am kind of introvert and I don't like to chat much with people.

✓ I am kind of an introvert and I don't like chatting much with people.

The noun 'introvert' requires the indefinite article 'an' before it. Also, after 'like', the gerund form 'chatting' is preferred over the infinitive 'to chat' when talking about general preferences.

× I would chat, uh, with friends about, about how's the day going or anything interesting if it has happened during our work time or, or anything personal, if they, if they are open to me to chat.

✓ I would chat with friends about how their day is going or anything interesting that has happened during our work time, or anything personal if they are open to chatting with me.

The phrase 'how's the day going' should be 'how their day is going' for correct word order and pronoun use. 'If it has happened' should be 'that has happened' to refer to events. Also, 'open to me to chat' is incorrect; it should be 'open to chatting with me' using the gerund after 'open to'.

× So we discussed that while.

✓ So we discuss that sometimes.

The sentence is unclear and awkward. 'Discussed' is past tense, but the context suggests habitual action, so present tense 'discuss' is better. Also, 'while' is vague; 'sometimes' clarifies frequency.

× I do not prefer to chat with the group of people, I prefer to chat with with a friend or two friends because I'm more comfortable in sharing everything with my friends not in the group which I think I should improve as well and this is the area for my improvement.

✓ I do not prefer to chat with groups of people; I prefer to chat with one or two friends because I'm more comfortable sharing everything with my friends, not in a group, which I think I should improve as well; this is an area for my improvement.

'The group of people' should be pluralized to 'groups of people' for generalization. 'With with' is a typo. 'A friend or two friends' is better as 'one or two friends'. 'In sharing' should be 'sharing' without 'in'. Also, punctuation is added for clarity.

× I do prefer to have a face to face conversation because face to face conversation makes you express your thoughts more clearly and effectively, whereas through social media or online platforms make it quite difficult to express yourself and the other person might take you in the wrong way.

✓ I do prefer to have a face-to-face conversation because it helps you express your thoughts more clearly and effectively, whereas communicating through social media or online platforms makes it quite difficult to express yourself, and the other person might misunderstand you.

'Face to face' should be hyphenated as 'face-to-face' when used as an adjective. The sentence needed a subject 'it' for 'makes you express'. 'Whereas through social media or online platforms make' is incorrect; the subject is missing, so 'communicating through social media or online platforms makes' is correct. 'Take you in the wrong way' is better expressed as 'misunderstand you'.

× Yes, sometimes I do do argue with my friends whenever I don't agree with their point or when I have to put my points strongly and I do not agree with them at all.

✓ Yes, sometimes I do argue with my friends whenever I don't agree with their points or when I have to put my points strongly, and I do not agree with them at all.

The repetition 'do do' is a typo and should be 'do'. 'Their point' should be plural 'their points' to match 'my points'. Commas are added for clarity.

× In those situations, although I am not a kind of person who argues, I'll just try to.

✓ In those situations, although I am not the kind of person who argues, I'll just try to express my opinion.

'A kind of person' should be 'the kind of person' to specify. The sentence ends abruptly with 'try to'; it needs an object or verb to complete the meaning, such as 'try to express my opinion'.
