× I do prefer happy music more than sad music because for me music bring the moods and also give us the energy when we hear that.
✓ I prefer happy music to sad music because, for me, music brings mood and gives us energy when we hear it.
The sentence has subject-verb agreement errors: 'music bring' should be 'music brings' because 'music' is singular (ID 27). Also 'I do prefer happy music more than sad music' is wordy and non-idiomatic; 'prefer happy music to sad music' is correct. 'the moods' is unnecessary; 'mood' is uncountable here. 'when we hear that' should be 'when we hear it' (pronoun reference). Suggestions: use singular verb forms with singular subjects and prefer concise, idiomatic phrases.'
× So by hearing happy music it will make my mood lifted and also make my day are more happier.
✓ Hearing happy music lifts my mood and makes my day happier.
Errors include incorrect auxiliary use and redundancy. 'it will make my mood lifted' is ungrammatical; use active verb 'lifts' (present simple to state a general truth) (ID 14). 'make my day are more happier' has 'are' incorrectly inserted and 'more happier' is a double comparative; use 'happier' alone. Suggestions: use simple active verbs and correct comparative forms.'
× Yes, happy music does make me more excited because when it has the ring and also the beat, it somehow made me want to join the melody and also the beat yourself.
✓ Yes, happy music does make me more excited because when it has a ringing sound and a strong beat, it makes me want to join in with the melody and the rhythm.
Mix of tense and person errors: 'it somehow made me' mixes past with present; keep present 'it makes me' (ID 2). 'the ring' is unclear; use 'a ringing sound'. 'join the melody and also the beat yourself' uses incorrect pronoun 'yourself' and awkward phrasing; use 'join in with the melody and the rhythm'. Suggestions: keep consistent tense, use correct third-person singular verb forms, and use appropriate pronouns.'
× When hearing happy music, it gave me the perception of happy life and also happy day.
✓ When I listen to happy music, it gives me a sense of a happy life and a happy day.
'When hearing happy music' is a dangling or awkward participial phrase; better to use 'When I listen to...'. 'it gave me' shifts to past; maintain present 'it gives me' for habitual action (ID 26). 'perception of happy life' is unnatural; 'a sense of a happy life' is idiomatic. Suggestions: avoid dangling participles, keep tense consistent, and use idiomatic nouns like 'sense'.'
× Yes, I have taken a music classes when I was informed too.
✓ Yes, I have taken music classes when I was in school.
'a music classes' mixes singular article with plural noun; either 'a music class' or 'music classes' without 'a' (ID 22). Also 'when I was informed too' is unclear; likely intended 'when I was in school' or 'when I was young'. Suggestions: match articles to noun number and use clear time expressions.'
× During the classes I learnt about piano and also guitar.
✓ During the classes I learned about the piano and the guitar.
Use of past tense 'learnt' is acceptable regional variation but 'learned' is common (ID 5). More importantly, instruments usually take the definite article 'the' when speaking generally about learning them. Suggestions: include articles with musical instruments when referring to learning to play them.'
× The teacher told me how to play the guitar and also the piano by using the workbook.
✓ The teacher showed me how to play the guitar and the piano using a workbook.
'told me how to play ... by using the workbook' is awkward; 'showed me' or 'taught me' is more natural. 'the workbook' may be fine, but 'using a workbook' is clearer (ID 26). Suggestions: prefer 'taught' or 'showed' and place 'using a workbook' next to the verb it modifies.'
× It very a good moment.
✓ It was a very good moment.
Missing verb 'was' makes the sentence ungrammatical (ID 23 and 26). Also word order for 'very a good' is incorrect; correct is 'a very good'. Suggestions: include the appropriate form of 'to be' and place modifiers in correct order.'
× It was a good class.
✓ It was a good class.
This sentence is correct; 'class' matches singular verb 'was'. No change needed (ID 1).
× No, I don't listen to music while doing other things because I want to focus on doing the project or the homework was given.
✓ No, I don't listen to music while doing other things because I want to focus on a project or the homework I was given.
'the homework was given' is passive and unclear; use 'the homework I was given' to show the subject (ID 12). Also 'doing the project' is unnatural; 'a project' or 'working on a project' is better. Suggestions: use active structures to show who received the homework and more natural phrasing for tasks.'
× Because for me music is very good to hear during leisure time rather than do during when you do something that are important.
✓ For me, music is best heard during leisure time rather than when you are doing something important.
Several preposition and word-order errors: 'to hear during leisure time' is awkward; 'heard during leisure time' is better. 'rather than do during when you do something' is ungrammatical; use 'rather than when you are doing something important'. 'that are important' has plural verb with vague 'that' (ID 11). Suggestions: simplify the contrast with 'rather than when...' and ensure subject-verb agreement and correct prepositions.'
