× I'm working on Tim horton's.
✓ I work at Tim Hortons.
The present continuous tense 'I'm working' is not appropriate here because the question asks about a habitual action or current job. The simple present 'I work' is correct. Also, the preposition 'on' is incorrect; 'at' is used for workplaces. 'Tim Hortons' is a proper noun and should be capitalized without an apostrophe.
× So then I came Canada.
✓ So then I came to Canada.
The verb 'came' is past tense and correct, but the preposition 'to' is missing before 'Canada'. The phrase should be 'came to Canada' to indicate movement towards a place.
× Then I took admission in Saint Lawrence College in Kingston, ON.
✓ Then I took admission at Saint Lawrence College in Kingston, ON.
The correct preposition with 'take admission' is 'at' rather than 'in'. 'Admission at' is the standard collocation when referring to enrolling in an institution.
× Yes, it is a better place to study because all the professor professors are very nice, they can answer whenever we ask for.
✓ Yes, it is a good place to study because all the professors are very nice; they answer whenever we ask.
'Better' is a comparative adjective and requires a comparison object, which is missing here. 'Good' is appropriate. The word 'professor' is repeated unnecessarily. Also, 'they can answer whenever we ask for' is awkward; 'they answer whenever we ask' is clearer and grammatically correct.
× Also, I really love the environment of the world.
✓ Also, I really love the environment here.
'Environment of the world' is awkward and unclear. Since the student is referring to the local environment, 'environment here' is more natural and appropriate.
× So can we can easily concentrate on our studies?
✓ So we can easily concentrate on our studies.
The sentence has redundant modal verbs 'can we can'. Removing 'can' after 'we' corrects the sentence structure.
