Grammar

Incorrect use of verbs / sentence structure

× So my parents studying me bullied.

✓ So my parents taught me not to bully.

The original sentence has incorrect verb forms and word order. 'Studying' is incorrect here; use 'taught' for teaching behavior in the past. 'Me bullied' is ungrammatical — the intended meaning is that parents taught the child not to bully others. Use past tense 'taught' to match 'as a child' context and include 'not to' before the verb 'bully'.

Incorrect use of pronouns / sentence structure

× Yeah, I think people like this very important because say thank you, say sorry, respond kindly, and I always say thank you to show respect.

✓ Yeah, I think being polite is very important because people say thank you, say sorry, respond kindly, and I always say thank you to show respect.

The sentence misuses 'people like this' and lacks a clear subject in the clause listing actions. Replace 'people like this' with 'being polite' to answer the question about importance. For the list of actions, include the subject 'people' (or use gerunds) so verbs are correct: 'people say thank you, say sorry, respond kindly'. This preserves present simple general truth. Also ensure parallel structure in the list of actions.

Present tense issue

× If we are polite, the world will be a better place.

✓ If we are polite, the world will be a better place.

The sentence is grammatically correct. It uses the first conditional appropriately: present simple in the 'if' clause and 'will' in the result clause. No correction needed.

Past tense issue

× I always said thank you and please to show my respect.

✓ I always said 'thank you' and 'please' to show my respect.

The sentence is mostly correct; 'said thank you and please' is acceptable in past tense. For clarity and written form, place 'thank you' and 'please' in quotes or set them off with commas. If the student intends a habitual past action during childhood, past simple 'said' is appropriate. No structural change required.
