× It gave me such a joyful and a Peace of Mind too.
✓ It gave me such joy and peace of mind too.
The phrase 'a Peace of Mind' incorrectly uses the definite article 'a' before an uncountable noun phrase. 'Peace of mind' is an uncountable expression and should not have an article. Also, 'joyful' is an adjective, but here a noun 'joy' fits better to parallel 'peace of mind'.
× I've never learned how to sing, I feel like it was just some gift that was given to me from a young age.
✓ I've never learned how to sing; I feel like it was just a gift that was given to me from a young age.
The sentence is a run-on and needs proper punctuation. Also, 'some gift' is less precise than 'a gift' in this context. Using a semicolon or period separates the two independent clauses correctly.
× I do have the voice, however if I did learn how to vocalize, I would've.
✓ I do have the voice; however, if I learned how to vocalize, I would have.
The modal verb phrase 'I would've' is incomplete without the main verb. Also, 'did learn' is better expressed as 'learned' in the conditional clause. Proper punctuation and conjunction usage improve clarity.
× My vocal cords would've gotten much much better and I wish to learn how to sing one day.
✓ My vocal cords would have gotten much better, and I wish to learn how to sing one day.
The phrase 'would've gotten' is correct in conditional past perfect, but the context suggests a future desire, so 'would get' might be better. Also, 'much much' is redundant; one 'much' suffices. The sentence is clearer with proper conjunction and punctuation.
× I really do want to perform for a lot of a big crowd and also I want to perform just for my family.
✓ I really do want to perform for a big crowd, and I also want to perform just for my family.
The phrase 'a lot of a big crowd' is incorrect; 'a lot of' is used with plural countable nouns or uncountable nouns, but 'crowd' is singular. 'A big crowd' is correct. Also, adding a comma before 'and' improves sentence flow.
× Of course I can.
✓ Of course I can.
This sentence is grammatically correct and requires no correction.
