× Yes I do.
✓ Yes, I do.
Missing comma after an introductory phrase is punctuation, not in the list; keep as minimal change. Add a comma to separate the introductory affirmation from the rest of the sentence for clarity.
× I enjoy taking pictures of different meals, especially when I travel or visit new place.
✓ I enjoy taking pictures of different places, especially when I travel or visit a new place.
The student used 'meals' (food) instead of 'places' (views/locations) which is a word choice error; this falls under incorrect use of adjectives or nouns. Also 'new place' needs the article 'a'. Use 'places' to match 'different' and add 'a' before 'new place' for correct article use.
× For example, I like taking photos of city skylines, parks or beautiful sunset.
✓ For example, I like taking photos of city skylines, parks, or a beautiful sunset.
The coordinate list mixes plural and singular nouns; 'sunset' should be singular with an article 'a' if listed alongside plural nouns. Ensure parallel structure: either make all items plural or use appropriate articles for singular items.
× I think different view can make photos look more interesting and unique.
✓ I think different views can make photos look more interesting and unique.
Subject 'different view' is singular but should be plural 'different views' to agree with the plural verb construction and the idea of multiple kinds of views; change to plural for subject-verb agreement and natural expression.
× I prefer wheels in urban areas.
✓ I prefer views in urban areas.
The student wrote 'wheels' likely by mistake for 'views'. This is a wrong word choice/pronoun substitution; replace with 'views' to match the question and intended meaning.
× I like seeing tall buildings, busy streets and city lights.
✓ I like seeing tall buildings, busy streets, and city lights.
Add a serial comma for clarity when listing three items; sentence structure is otherwise acceptable but punctuation improves readability.
× The skyline looks very beautiful, so I enjoy taking photos of it.
✓ The skyline looks very beautiful, so I enjoy taking photos of it.
Sentence is grammatically correct; included here to confirm subject-verb agreement is correct (no change needed). Explanation: 'skyline' is singular and 'looks' matches it.
× I think I prefer wheels in other countries.
✓ I think I prefer views in other countries.
Again 'wheels' is incorrect word choice for 'views'. Replace with 'views' to convey the intended meaning.
× When I travel I can see different landscapes and buildings that I don't usually see in my home country.
✓ When I travel, I can see different landscapes and buildings that I don't usually see in my home country.
Add a comma after the subordinate clause 'When I travel' to improve sentence clarity. Grammar is otherwise correct; the issue is punctuation enhancing readability.
× I think these view are more fresh and interesting so I enjoy taking photos of them.
✓ I think these views are fresher and more interesting, so I enjoy taking photos of them.
'These view' is singular/plural mismatch; change to 'these views'. Adjective 'fresh' should take comparative form 'fresher' when comparing, and add a comma before 'so' to separate clauses for clarity.
