× I also wanted to connect with my friends who were apart from.
✓ I also wanted to connect with my friends who were far away.
The phrase 'apart from' is incorrectly used here. The correct expression to indicate physical distance is 'far away'. 'Apart from' means 'except for' or 'besides', which does not fit the intended meaning.
× Think very rarely because I know how to balance the digital and social life.
✓ I think very rarely because I know how to balance digital and social life.
The article 'the' before 'digital and social life' is unnecessary because these are general concepts. Also, the sentence is missing the subject 'I' at the beginning, which is essential for sentence completeness.
× I just want to make sure that I'm not more online or spare my time spending it.
✓ I just want to make sure that I'm not spending too much time online or wasting my time.
The original sentence is awkward and unclear. 'I'm not more online' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'spending too much time online'. Also, 'spare my time spending it' is incorrect; 'wasting my time' or 'spending my time wisely' would be appropriate.
× I wasn't allowed to use Internet at all
✓ I wasn't allowed to use the Internet at all
The noun 'Internet' requires the definite article 'the' when referring to the global network. Omitting 'the' is a common error.
× I also was not having Wi-Fi to connect with the Internet.
✓ I also did not have Wi-Fi to connect to the Internet.
The phrase 'was not having' is incorrect; the simple past 'did not have' is appropriate. Also, the correct preposition is 'connect to' rather than 'connect with' when referring to Internet connection.
× LinkedIn is a platform where I often get close.
✓ LinkedIn is a platform where I often get in touch.
The phrase 'get close' is incorrect in this context. The correct expression is 'get in touch' or 'connect' when referring to networking on LinkedIn.
× I can, uh, stay away from Internet.
✓ I can, uh, stay away from the Internet.
The noun 'Internet' requires the definite article 'the' when referring to the global network.
× I also can be close to the nature.
✓ I can also be close to nature.
The word 'nature' is an uncountable noun and does not require the definite article 'the' in this context. Also, 'can also be' is a better word order.
