× After all my headphones are provided my company as work supplier.
✓ After all, my headphones are provided by my company as work equipment.
The original sentence is missing the past participle construction with the preposition by to form the passive voice correctly. Use 'provided by my company' (past participle provided + agent introduced by by). Also 'work supplier' is awkward; 'work equipment' or 'as part of my work equipment' is clearer. Add a comma after 'After all' for natural phrasing.
× From work I use wired headphone with a microphone because I need to speak something over a web meeting.
✓ For work I use wired headphones with a microphone because I need to speak during a web meeting.
Preposition 'From work' is incorrect here; use 'For work' to indicate purpose. 'Headphone' should be plural 'headphones'. Use 'with a microphone' (correct) and replace 'speak something over a web meeting' with 'speak during a web meeting' for natural collocation. 'During' is the correct preposition for events.
× From work I use wired headphone with a microphone because I need to speak something over a web meeting.
✓ For work I use wired headphones with a microphone because I need to speak during a web meeting.
The count noun should be plural 'headphones' because devices worn on both ears are usually plural. 'Headphone' (singular) is incorrect in this context.
× Also I believe my headphone provides better sound quality than wireless.
✓ Also, I believe my headphones provide better sound quality than wireless ones.
Subject 'headphones' is plural, so the verb should be 'provide' (not 'provides'). Also add 'ones' after 'wireless' to indicate 'wireless headphones' and a comma after 'Also' for natural flow.
× After all my headphones are provided my company as work supplier.
✓ After all, my headphones are provided by my company as work equipment.
The phrase 'provided my company' lacks the preposition by; additionally 'my company' is the agent and needs 'by'. The original also awkwardly uses 'work supplier'—use 'work equipment' or 'provided by my company for work'.
× I use my headphones when I job.
✓ I use my headphones when I am working.
The original lacks a verb phrase after 'I'. Use the present continuous 'I am working' to express being engaged in work. 'When I job' is ungrammatical in English.
× When I join a web meeting, I use my headphones to provide interpretation while listening to participants conversations and discussions.
✓ When I join a web meeting, I use my headphones to provide interpretation while listening to participants' conversations and discussions.
The noun 'participants' requires a possessive apostrophe before 'conversations' (participants' conversations). Also 'listening to participants conversations' needs the possessive to be grammatical. The verb forms are otherwise fine.
× They are part of my job routine.
✓ They are part of my job routine.
This sentence is actually correct; no article change needed. Included here to indicate no correction required.
× I do not use headphones if I don't, if I'm not working.
✓ I do not use headphones if I'm not working.
The original repeats the conditional 'if' unnecessarily and contains an unfinished clause 'if I don't,' which makes the sentence redundant and awkward. Keep the concise conditional 'if I'm not working'.
× I have wireless earphones which I use pretty often when I do exercise or shopping at a supermarket.
✓ I have wireless earphones which I use pretty often when I exercise or when shopping at a supermarket.
Use the bare verb 'exercise' (not 'do exercise') for natural phrasing, and use parallel structure 'when I exercise or when shopping' or 'when I exercise or shop at a supermarket'. Also 'do exercise' is acceptable but less natural than 'exercise'.
× But sometimes I just stop using headphones or earphones because I get tired of putting something on my.
✓ But sometimes I just stop using headphones or earphones because I get tired of putting something on.
The phrase 'putting something on my' is missing the object ('head') and uses incorrect pronoun placement. Native speakers omit the object here: 'get tired of putting something on' or specify 'putting something on my head'. Remove the dangling 'my'.
× Typically it's comfortable, I don't have any problems, although I know some people just can't stand it.
✓ Typically, it's comfortable; I don't have any problems, although I know some people just can't stand it.
Grammatically the sentence is fine in terms of articles, but punctuation can improve clarity: add a comma after 'Typically' and separate clauses with a semicolon. No article change is needed.
× I may get tired if I keep using them too long hours, but they are usually OK.
✓ I may get tired if I keep using them for too many hours, but they are usually OK.
Use 'for too many hours' or 'for too long' — the original 'too long hours' is unidiomatic. 'Keep using them' + duration requires a prepositional phrase 'for' and 'too many hours' or simply 'for too long'.
