× When I was a child, my teacher plays my singing adversity, my confidence.
✓ When I was a child, my teacher damaged my singing confidence.
The verb 'plays' is incorrect for third person singular in this context and the whole phrasing is ungrammatical. 'Plays' should be a past tense verb matching 'was' (child) and the intended meaning is that the teacher harmed confidence. Use past tense 'damaged' for a completed action in the past and correct the noun phrase to 'singing confidence'. Suggestion: use simple past for past events and choose verbs that match intended meaning.
× I learned how to sing by voice trainer.
✓ I learned how to sing from a voice trainer.
The preposition 'by' is incorrect here; use 'from' to indicate the person who taught you. Also 'voice trainer' needs an article 'a'. No past participle change needed; main error is preposition and article. Suggestion: use 'from' and include 'a' before occupations.
× It was a very good moment.
✓ It was a very good experience.
While grammatically possible, 'moment' is awkward; 'experience' better matches learning context. This is a style/word choice issue improving clarity. Suggestion: choose nouns that fit the context.
× She was very kind and showed how to sing a song in detail.
✓ She was very kind and showed me how to sing a song in detail.
The verb 'showed' usually takes an object; the indirect object 'me' is missing. Add the pronoun to indicate who was taught. Suggestion: include the recipient after verbs like 'showed'.
× She was a jazz singer and it was very impressed to me.
✓ She was a jazz singer and I was very impressed.
'Impressed' describes the speaker's feeling and should be used with subject 'I' plus 'was'. The original uses passive-like structure 'it was very impressed to me' which is incorrect. Suggestion: use 'I was impressed' or 'it impressed me'.
× Who do you want to sing for?
✓ Who do you want to sing for?
This sentence is fine as asked by the examiner; no change needed. No error per provided list.
× I just want to sing for myself.
✓ I just want to sing for myself.
This sentence is correct; no change needed.
× Adjust singing is my fun activity.
✓ Casual singing is my fun activity.
'Adjust' is incorrect; likely intended 'just' or 'casual'. If meaning is 'for myself' then 'casual singing' or 'singing as a hobby' fits. Suggestion: use 'casual singing' or 'singing is my hobby'.
× I don't need to sing for someone.
✓ I don't need to sing for anyone.
Use 'anyone' instead of 'someone' in negative sentences. In negatives, 'anyone' is the standard choice. Suggestion: use 'anyone' with negative verbs.
× But I also like to see with the children.
✓ But I also like to sing with the children.
'See with' is incorrect; context implies singing together, so use 'sing with'. Verb choice and preposition were wrong. Suggestion: ensure verb matches intended action.
× It can be very fun moment and then we can share the a good feeling.
✓ It can be a very fun moment and then we can share a good feeling.
Missing article before 'very fun moment' (need 'a') and extra 'the' before 'a good feeling'. Use 'a' for singular count nouns and avoid redundant articles. Suggestion: review article rules for singular countable nouns.
× Yeah, I truly think so.
✓ Yeah, I truly think so.
This sentence is correct; no change needed.
× Especially a singing with other people bring happiness to us.
✓ Especially singing with other people brings happiness to us.
Remove the article 'a' before 'singing' (singing as a gerund doesn't take 'a') and use third person singular 'brings' to agree with the singular gerund subject. Suggestion: treat gerunds as singular nouns and match verb accordingly.
× Especially when I sing with my friends at church, it's a very fun moment for us.
✓ Especially when I sing with my friends at church, it's a very fun moment for us.
Sentence is acceptable; no grammatical change required. 'It's' correctly refers to 'a very fun moment'.
× We can share our feelings and thoughts.
✓ We can share our feelings and thoughts.
Correct sentence; no change needed.
× Do you like listening to others singing?
✓ Do you like listening to others sing?
Use the bare infinitive 'sing' after verbs of perception or with 'listen to' when followed by 'others': 'listening to others sing' is more natural than 'others singing' here, though both are possible. Suggestion: use 'listen to others sing' for clarity.
× Yeah, I really love listening to and singing.
✓ Yeah, I really love listening and singing.
Remove 'to' after 'listening' when coordinating with another gerund; 'listening and singing' is parallel. Suggestion: keep parallel structure in coordinated verbs.
× Yeah, it providing you insight about the song because how to sing can express the interruption of the song.
✓ Yeah, it provides insight into the song because the way someone sings can express the interpretation of the song.
Multiple errors: verb form 'providing' should be 'provides' (present tense third person), wrong preposition 'about' should be 'into', 'how to sing' is awkward—use 'the way someone sings', and 'interruption' is incorrect word; intended 'interpretation'. Suggestion: ensure subject-verb agreement and choose correct nouns.
× Have you ever taken a singing class?
✓ Have you ever taken a singing class?
Question is correct; no change needed.
× Yes, when I was a student taking our singing class is a mandatory subject.
✓ Yes, when I was a student, our singing class was a mandatory subject.
The clause order and tense were wrong. Use past tense 'was' to match 'when I was a student' and place commas for clarity. Suggestion: keep consistent past tense and proper clause order.
× I really enjoyed them as sure singing class I could run a lot of things about music and instruments.
✓ I really enjoyed it because in the singing class I learned a lot about music and instruments.
Pronoun 'them' should be 'it' (class is singular), and phrase 'as sure singing class I could run a lot of things' is ungrammatical. Replace with 'because in the singing class I learned a lot'. Suggestion: use 'learned' for acquiring knowledge and match pronouns to noun number.
× And I also love to sing with my friends.
✓ And I also love to sing with my friends.
This sentence is correct; no change needed.
