× I believe my vocal is such a good fit for some specific songs like death metal or thrash metal 'cause I can scream really well, which makes me a very good singer in terms of those specific type of music.
✓ I believe my vocals are such a good fit for some specific songs like death metal or thrash metal 'cause I can scream really well, which makes me a very good singer in terms of those specific types of music.
The word 'vocal' should be plural 'vocals' because it refers to the sounds produced by the voice in general. Also, 'type' should be plural 'types' because it refers to more than one kind of music. In English, countable nouns must agree in number with their quantifiers or determiners.
× My parents get myself admitted into a singing school.
✓ My parents got me admitted into a singing school.
The verb 'get' should be in the past tense 'got' to match the past time frame indicated by 'when I was a child'. Also, 'myself' is incorrectly used as an object pronoun; the correct object pronoun here is 'me'. This corrects both the tense and pronoun usage.
× I also learned how to play instrument like guitar and drums.
✓ I also learned how to play instruments like guitar and drums.
The noun 'instrument' should be plural 'instruments' because it refers to more than one musical instrument. This is a singular/plural issue rather than a verb participle issue, but since the verb 'learned' is correct, the main correction is the noun form.
× There is no special one, but I would say I would like to sing for myself 'cause I believe it relaxes my nerve.
✓ There is no special one, but I would say I would like to sing for myself 'cause I believe it relaxes my nerves.
The word 'nerve' should be plural 'nerves' because the phrase 'relaxes my nerves' is an idiomatic expression meaning to calm oneself. Using the singular form is incorrect in this context.
× Whenever I'm stressed or very busy at work, I take 2 to 3 minutes off from work and then I just went outside or even in the washroom to do some singing.
✓ Whenever I'm stressed or very busy at work, I take 2 to 3 minutes off from work and then I just go outside or even to the washroom to do some singing.
The verb 'went' is past tense but the sentence is describing a habitual action, so the present tense 'go' should be used. Also, the preposition 'in' should be 'to' when referring to going to a place like the washroom.
× or even in the washroom to do some singing.
✓ or even to the washroom to do some singing.
The preposition 'in' is incorrect here because the action is 'going to' a place, so the correct preposition is 'to'. This clarifies the direction or destination of the action.
× Singing is one of those delicate capabilities of human that suits someone's mind or even relaxes their nerves and entertain them in a way that anything else would not.
✓ Singing is one of those delicate capabilities of humans that suits someone's mind or even relaxes their nerves and entertains them in a way that nothing else would.
The word 'human' should be plural 'humans' to agree with 'capabilities'. The verb 'entertain' should be 'entertains' to agree with the singular subject 'Singing'. Also, 'anything else would not' is better expressed as 'nothing else would' for clarity and correctness.
