I'd like to chat with a group of people because having many people will help me share my ideas and I can get different perspectives on any topic.
考官
Do you prefer to communicate face-to-face or via social media?
考生
I'd like to communicate face to face because it helps me have a conversation in real time rather than using social media where only voices can be heard even though we have video calls but still having a face to face interaction makes it more realistic.

× if there are and umm, if there are any problems, uh, with me, they can uh, uh, share their umm, uh, response
✓ if there are any problems with me, they can share their responses
The word 'response' should be plural 'responses' because it refers to multiple friends each potentially giving their own response. Using the plural form matches the plural subject 'they' and the context of multiple people responding.
× having many people will help me share my ideas and I can get different perspectives on any topic
✓ having many people will help me share my ideas and I can get different perspectives on various topics
The phrase 'any topic' is singular, but since 'different perspectives' implies multiple topics, 'various topics' is more appropriate to match the plural sense.
× I'd like to communicate face to face because it helps me have a conversation in real time rather than using social media where only voices can be heard even though we have video calls but still having a face to face interaction makes it more realistic
✓ I'd like to communicate face-to-face because it helps me have a conversation in real time rather than using social media where only voices can be heard. Even though we have video calls, still having face-to-face interaction makes it more realistic
The phrase 'face to face' should be hyphenated as 'face-to-face' when used as an adjective or adverb. Also, the original sentence is a run-on sentence and needs to be split for clarity. The preposition usage is correct but punctuation and hyphenation improve correctness and readability.
× having a understanding, uh, bond with my friends helps me, umm, have a argument, uh, uh, with them
✓ having an understanding bond with my friends helps me have an argument with them
The article 'a' should be 'an' before a word starting with a vowel sound like 'argument'. Also, 'a argument' is incorrect; it should be 'an argument'. The phrase 'a understanding' should be 'an understanding' for the same reason.
× if there was any, umm, uh, misunderstanding between us, I would like to, uh, talk rather than, uh, going back and talking about them and having a fight
✓ if there were any misunderstanding between us, I would like to talk rather than going back and talking about it and having a fight
The subjunctive mood requires 'were' instead of 'was' after 'if' when referring to hypothetical situations. Also, 'talking about them' is incorrect because 'misunderstanding' is singular and should be referred to as 'it'. This correction improves grammatical accuracy and clarity.
