× Currently one of my hobbies is to, uh, be a motorcyclist because, umm, I think it's kind of cool of having a motorcycle and then I can, uh uh, manipulate the, uh, the, the bike.
✓ Currently one of my hobbies is riding motorcycles because I think it's kind of cool to have a motorcycle and I can ride the bike.
Use the gerund form after 'is' when stating a hobby ('is riding'), not the infinitive 'to be'. 'Ride motorcycles' is a natural collocation for the activity. 'Cool of having' is incorrect; use 'cool to have' or omit 'having'. Remove filler words and duplicate articles for clarity. ID:8
× Yes, when I was young I like bicycling with my playmates, especially in the evening after the meal.
✓ Yes, when I was young I liked bicycling with my playmates, especially in the evenings after meals.
The time marker 'when I was young' requires past tense 'liked' not present 'like'. Make 'evening' plural to indicate habitual action and 'after meals' is more natural in this context. ID:5
× I also I always ride the bikes nearby the sidewalk and the feel the wind cool.
✓ I also always rode my bike near the sidewalk and felt the cool wind.
Use past tense 'rode' to match 'when I was young'. Preposition 'near' is correct (not 'nearby' for location with noun). Use 'my bike' not 'the bikes' for a habitual action by one person. 'Feel the wind cool' is ungrammatical; use 'felt the cool wind' (adjective before noun). ID:11
× Since childhood, one of my biggest hobby is finding delicious food.
✓ Since childhood, one of my biggest hobbies has been finding delicious food.
When saying 'one of my biggest ...' the noun should be plural ('hobbies'). Also use present perfect 'has been' or present 'is' depending on continuing relevance; 'has been' emphasizes continuity since childhood. ID:1
× I don't know why because delicious food are always draw my attention.
✓ I don't know why because delicious food always draws my attention.
'Delicious food' is a singular or collective noun phrase here and takes singular verb 'draws'. Also remove 'are' which is incorrect; use 'draws my attention' (present simple for general truth). ID:27
× I would uh spend uh, more money to pay a good meal than.
✓ I would spend more money on a good meal than on other things.
Use 'would' correctly with base verb 'spend'. Correct preposition is 'spend money on' not 'spend money to pay'. Complete the comparison with 'than on other things' to make the sentence grammatical and clear. ID:4
× Yes, the same hobby is to find the delicious food.
✓ Yes, the same hobby is finding delicious food.
Use gerund 'finding' after 'is' for stating hobbies. Omit 'the' before 'delicious food' unless referring to specific food; 'delicious food' as a general hobby is uncountable. ID:1
× Uh, most of my families like uh its local food, so we always travel around to different cities or different countries to taste the local uh, special food.
✓ Most of my family likes its local food, so we often travel to different cities or countries to taste local specialties.
Use 'family' as a collective noun with singular verb 'likes' or 'families' if referring to multiple families. 'Most of my families' is incorrect if referring to one family. Use possessive 'its local food' for the family. 'Travel around to' is wordy; 'travel to' is natural. 'Special food' -> 'specialties' is the correct noun. ID:12
× Umm, I like this feeling.
✓ I like that feeling.
The sentence is acceptable but 'that feeling' is more natural than 'this feeling' when referring to the general pleasure of tasting food. No major grammar error, but this is a stylistic suggestion to improve naturalness. ID:8
