× For for example, when I have stressful day, I listen to mellow ballads to feel calmer.
✓ For example, when I have a stressful day, I listen to mellow ballads to feel calmer.
Errors: repeated word 'For for' and missing article 'a' before 'stressful day'. The repeated word is a typographical/repetition error; the noun 'day' is singular and requires the indefinite article 'a'. Suggestion: remove the duplicate 'for' and add 'a' before 'stressful day'.
× Yes, happy music make me feel so excited and happy because it's move your negative energy.
✓ Yes, happy music makes me feel so excited and happy because it moves my negative energy.
Errors: subject-verb agreement and incorrect pronoun. 'Music' is singular so the verb requires third person singular 'makes' not 'make'. 'It's move' is incorrect: should be 'it moves'. 'Your negative energy' mismatches speaker perspective; use 'my negative energy'. Suggestions: use 'makes' and 'moves', and change 'your' to 'my' to match the speaker referring to themselves.
× Actually, I took lessons, music lessons in the university and secondary school.
✓ Actually, I took music lessons at university and in secondary school.
Errors: awkward placement and preposition use. Use 'music lessons' as a single phrase and 'at university' (or 'at the university' depending on context) and 'in secondary school'. Suggestion: reorder words so 'music lessons' stays together and use correct prepositions 'at' for university and 'in' for school.
× So I kind of, I kind of know about the music and know what it is.
✓ So I kind of know about music and know what it is.
Errors: unnecessary repetition and article misuse. 'The music' is too specific; use 'music' generally. Also remove repeated phrase 'I kind of,' duplication. Suggestion: delete duplicate and omit 'the' when speaking about music in general.
× And we studied about tunes and, uh, all, all, all of musics.
✓ And we studied tunes and all kinds of music.
Errors: incorrect plural 'musics' and incorrect use of 'studied about'. 'Music' is an uncountable noun, so use 'music' not 'musics' and use 'studied' without 'about' or say 'studied about' is nonstandard. Also 'all kinds of music' is a natural expression. Suggestion: replace with 'studied tunes and all kinds of music.'
× A lot. I, I listen to music a lot, like when I when I do the dishes, when I go out and before I sleep.
✓ A lot. I listen to music a lot, like when I do the dishes, when I go out, and before I sleep.
Errors: repetition 'when I when I' and missing comma before 'and'. Fix by removing duplicated words and adding proper punctuation for clarity. Suggestion: say each clause once and include commas to separate items.
× Like every time in the day I listen to music. It's make me so comfortable and it's motivate me to do that.
✓ Like every time during the day I listen to music. It makes me so comfortable and it motivates me to do things.
Errors: 'It's make' and 'it's motivate' are incorrect for third person singular; should be 'it makes' and 'it motivates'. Also 'in the day' is awkward; use 'during the day'. 'to do that' is vague; 'to do things' or 'to do tasks' is clearer. Suggestion: use correct verb forms and clearer phrasing.
