× I usually enjoy the moment by myself then stop and taking pictures.
✓ I usually enjoy the moment by myself, then stop and take pictures.
The verb following 'stop and' should be in the base form, not the -ing form. Use 'take' after 'stop and' to maintain parallel structure and correct verb form. Also add a comma for clarity.
× Moreover, I don't have a professional camera so I have a has.
✓ Moreover, I don't have a professional camera, so I have a phone.
The original sentence contains a nonsensical word 'has' and is missing a clear noun. Likely the student meant a common object such as 'phone'. Also add a comma before 'so' joining two independent clauses. This fixes article/reference confusion by providing a correct noun.
× I refer views in urban areas, for instance the skyscraper are interesting architect at night.
✓ I prefer views in urban areas; for instance, the skyscrapers are interesting at night.
Multiple issues: 'refer' is incorrect verb choice; 'prefer' is correct. 'Skyscraper' should be plural 'skyscrapers' to match plural subject with 'are'. The word 'architect' was incorrectly used instead of 'architecture' or simply omitted; here removing it and keeping 'interesting at night' is clearer. Semicolon or punctuation improves sentence flow.
× The roof roof tall also give me a lot of use of the cities.
✓ The tall rooftops also give me a lot of appreciation for the city.
Original has repetition 'roof roof' and incorrect word order and agreement: 'give' should match plural subject 'rooftops' (which would take 'give' but sentence needed rephrasing for meaning). Rewriting to 'tall rooftops also give me a lot of appreciation for the city' makes subject, verb, and object clear and grammatically correct.
× I refer views in my own country for a reason, it make me feel more connected.
✓ I prefer views in my own country for a reason; they make me feel more connected.
Use 'prefer' instead of 'refer'. Also subject 'views' is plural, so verb should be 'make' not 'make'—original had 'make' but missing 'they'; include appropriate pronoun or use plural verb. Use semicolon to connect related clauses.
× Uh, the local views may remind me about my childhood with my family and I also have a lot of.
✓ The local views may remind me of my childhood with my family, and I also have a lot of memories.
Sentence was incomplete and used wrong preposition 'remind me about' (better 'remind me of'). The clause 'I also have a lot of' lacked an object; adding 'memories' completes the thought. This corrects structure and clarity.
