× I feel I can focus more in a quiet place and watching people trying to focus and study hard like me encourage me to keep going on my studies.
✓ I feel I can focus more in a quiet place and watching people trying to focus and study hard like me encourages me to keep going on my studies.
The verb 'encourage' should be in the third person singular form 'encourages' to agree with the singular subject 'watching people trying to focus and study hard like me'. This is a subject-verb agreement issue related to verb form after -ing phrases.
× Also I feel the light, the colors. The book.
✓ Also, I feel the light, the colors, and the books.
The original sentence is fragmented and lacks proper conjunctions and plural agreement. Adding 'and' and making 'book' plural improves sentence structure and clarity.
× My parents teach me to balance between my study and my life.
✓ My parents taught me to balance between my study and my life.
Since the action happened in the past, the verb 'teach' should be in the past tense 'taught' to match the time frame.
× So sometimes I go for study there and borrowing a book because it's cheaper than buying them.
✓ So sometimes I go to study there and borrow a book because it's cheaper than buying them.
The phrase 'go for study' is incorrect; it should be 'go to study'. Also, 'borrowing' should be 'borrow' to maintain parallel verb forms after 'go to study'.
× So also for the studies is very good.
✓ So, it is also very good for studying.
The original sentence lacks a subject and proper structure. Adding 'it is' and rephrasing improves clarity and grammatical correctness.
× Actually going to the library is very traditional thing in our family because my parents are doctors so they used to go to study there and borrow our books because it's cheaper.
✓ Actually, going to the library is a very traditional thing in our family because my parents are doctors, so they used to go to study there and borrow books because it's cheaper.
Added article 'a' before 'very traditional thing' and removed 'our' before 'books' for naturalness. Also added commas for clarity.
× So they teach me when I was a kid until now to go and focus and concentrate about my studies.
✓ So they have taught me since I was a kid until now to go and focus and concentrate on my studies.
The verb 'teach' should be in present perfect 'have taught' to indicate an action that started in the past and continues to the present. Also, 'concentrate about' should be 'concentrate on' (see next correction).
× So they teach me when I was a kid until now to go and focus and concentrate about my studies.
✓ So they have taught me since I was a kid until now to go and focus and concentrate on my studies.
The correct preposition with 'concentrate' is 'on', not 'about'. This is a common preposition error.
× Actually is depend on the person and how they raised up their children because my parents up to them to go to the liberty from the kids like their grandmother and grandfather.
✓ Actually, it depends on the person and how they raise their children because my parents took them to the library from when they were kids, like their grandmother and grandfather.
The sentence lacked the subject 'it' and had incorrect verb forms 'is depend' and 'raised up'. Corrected to 'it depends' and 'raise'. Also corrected 'liberty' to 'library' and rephrased for clarity.
× Actually is depend on the person and how they raised up their children because my parents up to them to go to the liberty from the kids like their grandmother and grandfather.
✓ Actually, it depends on the person and how they raise their children because my parents took them to the library from when they were kids, like their grandmother and grandfather.
Corrected preposition usage: 'depend on' is correct, but 'raised up' is incorrect; 'raise' is the correct verb. Also, 'up to them to go' is incorrect; 'took them to' is appropriate.
× So they teach me to go to the library with them.
✓ So they taught me to go to the library with them.
Verb tense corrected to past tense 'taught' to match the context. Pronoun usage is correct.
× So it's not depend on the nationality of the children.
✓ So it doesn't depend on the nationality of the children.
The phrase 'it's not depend' is incorrect. The correct form is 'it doesn't depend' to express negation with the verb 'depend'.
