× All that is difficult to find my exactly favorite food, but I think I like most is every meal were cooked by my mother.
✓ It is difficult to find my exact favorite food, but I think I like most meals that were cooked by my mother.
The student used incorrect singular/plural forms ('every meal' with 'were' and 'my exactly favorite food'). Use 'my exact favorite food' (adjective order) and plural 'meals' to match 'were cooked'. Use 'that' to introduce the relative clause. Suggestion: Practice noun number agreement and relative clauses: 'meals that were cooked by my mother.'
× My mother is a one person's good in cooking every dishes.
✓ My mother is a very good cook and cooks many dishes.
The phrase 'a one person's good in cooking every dishes' is ungrammatical. Use 'a very good cook' or 'is very good at cooking.' Also 'dishes' should not be preceded by 'every' here; use 'many dishes' or 'every dish' with singular verb forms. Suggestion: Use 'good at' + gerund or noun: 'she is very good at cooking' or 'she is a very good cook.'
× Or when I was young, I prefer like a sweaty food.
✓ When I was young, I preferred sweet foods.
The student mixed present tense 'prefer' with past time reference 'when I was young.' Use past tense 'preferred.' Also 'sweaty' is incorrect word choice; use 'sweet.' Use plural 'foods' for general preference. Suggestion: Match verb tense to time adverbials: 'When I was young, I preferred...'.
× I like chocolate just but chocolate have a lot of sugar and is bad for my health, Uh, cause umm, also that chocolate I think is the good food that I have uh, try.
✓ I just liked chocolate, but chocolate has a lot of sugar and is bad for my health. Also, I think chocolate was a good food I used to try.
Multiple errors: 'just' placement, verb agreement 'chocolate have' should be 'chocolate has,' and tense consistency. 'Have try' should be 'used to try' or 'have tried.' Clarify: 'I used to like chocolate, but it has a lot of sugar and is bad for my health.' Suggestion: Use subject-verb agreement and consistent tense: 'chocolate has' and 'I used to try'.
× Absolutely it's yes umm at the different time in the country have a different food in Ted holiday we have a traditional food like uh, MMM chicken cake.
✓ Absolutely yes. At different times of the year in the country, there are different foods. On that holiday we have a traditional food, like chicken cake.
Use 'there are' for existence ('there are different foods'). 'Different time' should be 'different times of the year.' Also 'in Ted holiday' unclear; likely 'that holiday' or 'on that holiday.' Suggestion: Use 'there is/there are' to state existence and correct time expressions: 'at different times of the year.'
× Every food umm familiar with this holiday are in June. I have a.
✓ The foods associated with this holiday are in June.
Awkward phrasing: 'Every food familiar with this holiday are in June' should be 'The foods associated with this holiday are in June.' Ensure subject-verb agreement ('foods ... are'). Suggestion: Use 'associated with' or 'typical for' instead of 'familiar with.'
× Well, my favorite food when I was a child and now what changed uh, dramatically?
✓ Well, has my favorite food changed dramatically from when I was a child to now?
Question formation is incorrect. Use present perfect to ask about change up to now: 'Has ... changed?' Also word order for questions must invert auxiliary and subject. Suggestion: Use 'Has ... changed?' for life experience changes: 'Has your favorite food changed since you were a child?'
× Umm, because my taste don't don't like and not much with my taste when I was chill in Now I like uh, healthy food then chill.
✓ Umm, because my taste has changed; it wasn't the same when I was a child. Now I like healthy food more than when I was a child.
Multiple pronoun and verb issues: 'my taste don't don't like' is ungrammatical; use 'my taste has changed' or 'my tastes didn't match.' 'Chill' is incorrect for 'child.' Also compare past and present using 'more than.' Suggestion: Use 'my taste has changed' and clear comparison: 'Now I like healthy food more than I did as a child.'
