× I like singing very much. It's just everyday life. It's my hobby. I can't live without it and here.
✓ I like singing very much. It's just part of my everyday life. It's my hobby. I can't live without it here.
The phrase 'everyday life' needs a determiner and 'part of' to be natural; 'and here' is misplaced. Use 'part of my everyday life' and place 'here' after 'without it' to form a correct idiom. Suggestion: 'It's just part of my everyday life' and 'I can't live without it here.'
× No, I officially didn't learn how to think, but by listening to songs, watching YouTube, Tik Toks and other social media I I started to have a determination to learn how to think and I know a few tricks to think.
✓ No, I haven't officially learned how to sing, but by listening to songs and watching YouTube, TikTok and other social media I started to feel determined to learn how to sing and I know a few tricks for singing.
Errors: wrong verb 'think' instead of 'sing' (word choice), incorrect past tense form 'didn't learn' vs present perfect 'haven't learned' for life experience, duplication 'I I', and awkward phrases 'have a determination' and 'tricks to think'. Use present perfect for experience not completed ('haven't officially learned'), 'learned' past participle, 'feel determined' is natural, and 'tricks for singing' is correct collocation. Suggestion: use correct verb 'sing', remove duplicates, and prefer present perfect when relevant.
× For myself, I hate my thinking voice. Actually, I'm worried about thinking, so I don't want other people to hear my singing. That's why I sing for myself.
✓ For myself, I hate my own singing voice. Actually, I'm self-conscious about singing, so I don't want other people to hear me sing. That's why I sing for myself.
Pronoun and word-choice issues: 'my thinking voice' is incorrect; use 'my own singing voice'. 'Worried about thinking' should be 'self-conscious about singing' or 'worried about singing'. 'Hear my singing' is acceptable but 'hear me sing' is more natural. Suggestion: use 'my own' for emphasis and choose the correct verb ('sing') instead of 'think'.
× Sad songs bring sadness to people in the even though they are happy just same as that have singing can bring people happiness and joy.
✓ Sad songs can make people feel sad even if they are usually happy, and likewise singing can bring people happiness and joy.
This sentence has unclear and disordered structure: redundant phrases ('bring sadness to people', 'in the even though'), incorrect connectors. Use clearer structure with 'even if' for contrast and 'likewise' to compare. Also ensure verb forms match ('can make', 'can bring'). Suggestion: split into two clauses and use appropriate conjunctions.
× I say I like hearing people singing, but just the professional people singing. I hate how national people singing and I hate their voice kinda. And that's just my afternoon.
✓ I would say I like hearing people sing, but only professional singers. I don't like how amateur singers sing, and I don't much like their voices. And that's just my preference.
Problems: tense and form - 'hearing people singing' is acceptable but 'hearing people sing' is simpler; 'just the professional people singing' is awkward, use 'only professional singers'. 'National people' likely wrong word for 'amateur' or 'local'; choose appropriate word. 'I hate their voice kinda' is informal and ungrammatical; use 'I don't much like their voices'. 'That's just my afternoon' is incorrect idiom; likely meant 'that's just my preference'. Suggestion: use correct noun forms ('singers') and clear phrasing.
× I haven't take a singing class once, I just took advice from strangers on the social media and tried the tricks they told me and it works every time.
✓ I've never taken a singing class; I just took advice from strangers on social media and tried the tricks they told me, and they work every time.
Errors: incorrect verb form 'haven't take' should be present perfect 'I've never taken' for life experience; 'once' is unnecessary. 'The social media' should be 'social media'. Subject agreement: 'it works' should be 'they work' referring to 'tricks'. Suggestion: use present perfect for experiences, correct past participle 'taken', and match plural subjects with plural verbs.
