× Yes, I enjoy chatting with my friends every day during my break time.
✓ Yes, I enjoy chatting with my friends every day during my break.
'Break time' is not wrong but 'break' is more natural; this is a minor present tense/context phrasing issue to fit spoken English concisely.
× I believe that chatting would make me feel enjoy and I can actually get something new from my friend.
✓ I believe that chatting makes me feel happy and I can actually learn something new from my friends.
'Make me feel enjoy' is incorrect because 'enjoy' is a verb; after 'feel' we need an adjective ('happy'). 'Would make' is unnecessary—use present simple 'makes' for habitual actions. 'Get something new from my friend' should be 'learn something new from my friends' for correct collocation and plural agreement.
× For example when there is a new that related to my society, my friend always text me like how is how's it going there so.
✓ For example, when there is news related to my community, my friends always text me like 'How's it going there?'.
Several issues: 'a new' is wrong; use 'news' or 'a news item'. 'Related to my society' is awkward—use 'related to my community'. 'My friend always text me' needs plural agreement 'friends always text me' and correct verb form 'text' is acceptable in informal speech but add 'text me' with punctuation. The quoted message should be a direct question. This fixes noun choice, subject-verb agreement, and sentence clarity.
× Well, I usually chat about variety of topic to my friends but usually we always talk about our day or sometime maybe study because right now we are studying in university so we actually chat to each other about some schedule or.
✓ Well, I usually chat about a variety of topics with my friends; usually we talk about our day or sometimes about study-related things because we are at university, so we chat about schedules and assignments.
Use 'a variety of topics' (missing article and plural). 'To my friends' should be 'with my friends'. 'Sometime' should be 'sometimes'. 'Studying in university' is better as 'at university'. The sentence was run-on and incomplete; clarify and complete the final item ('schedules and assignments').
× Where I prefer to chat with a group of people because I believe that chatting with many people would allow me to get new idea.
✓ I prefer to chat with a group of people because I believe that chatting with many people allows me to get new ideas.
'Where I prefer' is incorrect; use 'I prefer'. 'Would allow' is unnecessary—use present 'allows' for general truth. 'New idea' should be plural 'new ideas'.
× It's such a new perspective to my life.
✓ It gives me a new perspective on life.
'It's such a new perspective to my life' is awkward. Use 'gives me a new perspective on life' for natural English and correct preposition 'on'.
× Additionally, they can actually help me to solve some problem that I cannot think about it.
✓ Additionally, they can help me solve some problems that I cannot think of on my own.
Remove redundant 'to' after 'help' when followed by bare infinitive 'solve'. Use plural 'problems'. 'Cannot think about it' is ungrammatical; use 'cannot think of on my own.'
× Well, I prefer to communicate face to face rather than using social media because I'm a face to face.
✓ Well, I prefer to communicate face-to-face rather than via social media because I am more comfortable with face-to-face communication.
'Face to face' should be hyphenated as 'face-to-face' when used as adjective. 'Because I'm a face to face' is ungrammatical; clarify preference by saying 'I am more comfortable with face-to-face communication.'
× Communication would strengthen our relationship.
✓ Face-to-face communication strengthens our relationships.
Use present simple 'strengthens' for general truth. 'Our relationship' can be plural 'our relationships' but either is acceptable; adjusted to match improved sentence flow.
× I would say it will make our atmosphere more enjoyable, create a positive memory and even help you to know your friends.
✓ I would say it makes the atmosphere more enjoyable, creates positive memories, and even helps you get to know your friends.
Use present simple 'makes/creates/helps' for general truths. 'A positive memory' should be plural or 'positive memories'. 'Help you to know your friends' is better as 'help you get to know your friends'—use correct verb phrase.
× Well I don't prefer to have a human with my friends but when we sometime have different opinion about something we used to I would say when there was something wrong that and then my friend have one side opinion and then I have one other opinion.
✓ Well, I don't prefer to have arguments with my friends, but sometimes we have different opinions about something. I would say that if something is wrong, my friend may have one opinion and I may have another.
'Have a human with my friends' is nonsensical—likely intended 'have arguments'. 'Sometime' should be 'sometimes'. 'Different opinion' needs plural 'different opinions'. 'We used to I would say when there was something wrong that' is ungrammatical; rephrase to conditional 'if something is wrong'. 'My friend have' needs subject-verb agreement 'my friend may have'.
× So it made me feel like you.
✓ So it makes me feel upset or uncomfortable.
'So it made me feel like you' is unclear and ungrammatical. 'Made' shifts to past; keep present 'makes' for habitual outcomes. Clarify intended emotion such as 'upset' or 'uncomfortable'.
