Grammar

Singular and plural issue

× Yes, I like to watch movies and read novel.

✓ Yes, I like to watch movies and read novels.

The noun 'novel' should be plural 'novels' when speaking generally about reading books. Use plural when referring to more than one or to the activity in general.

Present tense issue

× Yes, I think so. When I was a child, I like to read novel and because reading novel can help me enhance my study skills so I can concentrate in academic work.

✓ Yes, I think so. When I was a child, I liked to read novels because reading novels helped me improve my study skills and concentrate on academic work.

The sentence refers to past habits, so verbs must be in past tense: 'like' -> 'liked' and 'help' -> 'helped'. 'Novel' should be plural 'novels'. Use 'improve' instead of 'enhance' with 'study skills' is acceptable but changed to 'improve' for naturalness. Use 'concentrate on' for correct preposition. Remove redundant conjunctions and restructure for clarity.

Past tense issue

× Yes, I did. Reading novel was my hobby in my childhood because reading novel can help me be more concentrated and I can it is more useful for my academic work.

✓ Yes, I did. Reading novels was my hobby in childhood because reading them helped me be more focused and was useful for my academic work.

Use past tense consistently ('was', 'helped'). Make 'novel' plural 'novels' and replace the awkward phrase 'be more concentrated' with 'be more focused'. Remove the incorrect fragment 'I can it is' and simplify to 'was useful'. Use pronoun 'them' to refer back to 'novels' (correct pronoun reference).

Incorrect use of pronouns

× Actually no, because my fam, my family member like to engage in outdoor activity such as climbing mountains or swimming and but I like indoor activities.

✓ Actually no, because my family members like to engage in outdoor activities such as climbing mountains or swimming, but I prefer indoor activities.

Use the correct plural 'family members' and plural 'activities'. 'Fam' is informal and should be 'family'. Ensure subject-verb agreement: 'members like'. Remove the redundant conjunctions 'and but' and use one appropriate conjunction 'but'. Use 'prefer' for a natural verb choice. Punctuation added for clarity.
