× My mother taught me she was very strict for me and my sister.
✓ My mother taught me, and she was very strict with my sister and me.
Use the preposition with, not for, when describing strict behavior toward people. The sentence also needs a conjunction to connect the two independent ideas.
× For example she taught me to table manner very strictly, even when we have dinner only with my family.
✓ For example, she taught me table manners very strictly, even when we had dinner only with my family.
The expression is table manners, which is normally plural. Also, the answer refers to childhood, so the past-tense form had is more appropriate than have.
× For example she taught me to table manner very strictly, even when we have dinner only with my family.
✓ For example, she taught me table manners very strictly, even when we had dinner only with my family.
Because the speaker is describing childhood experiences, the past tense had should be used instead of the present-tense form have.
× ...especially when you have to talk with high society people like professor...
✓ ...especially when you have to talk with high-society people like professors...
The noun professor is countable and refers to people in general here, so it should be plural: professors. The expression high-society people is also written with a hyphen when it functions as a compound adjective.
× ...being bright is one of an important aspect for me to do our research.
✓ ...being bright is one of the important aspects of doing our research.
The phrase one of must be followed by the and a plural noun: one of the important aspects. The phrase of doing our research is also grammatically appropriate after aspects.
× ...being bright is one of an important aspect for me to do our research.
✓ ...being bright is one of the important aspects of doing our research.
After aspect, use of to describe the activity related to it. The original phrase for me to do our research is not the appropriate grammatical structure in this context.
× Meeting with high society people is the most important format for me to be bright because in this situation we are in very serious situations in my life.
✓ Meeting high-society people is very important to me because these are very serious situations in my life.
The original sentence contains an awkward and confusing structure. The revised version uses a clear main clause followed by a because-clause. Meeting can be followed directly by the object when referring to the activity in general.
× ...because in this situation we are in very serious situations in my life.
✓ ...because these are very serious situations in my life.
The original sentence shifts from the singular expression this situation to the plural noun situations without a clear grammatical connection. These are correctly introduces the plural noun situations.
× For example, we have to get agreement with these people and in this situation being pride is literally
✓ For example, we have to reach an agreement with these people, and in this situation, being proud is important.
The original sentence ends without a complete predicate and therefore does not express a complete thought. Adding is important gives the final clause a verb and completes the sentence.
× I think proper greeting is the foundation of our life...
✓ I think a proper greeting is the foundation of our lives...
A singular countable noun such as greeting needs an article when it is mentioned for the first time. The plural form lives is more natural when referring to people's lives in general.
× ...especially when I was an elementary and junior high students.
✓ ...especially when I was an elementary and junior high school student.
The subject is I, so student must be singular, not plural. Elementary school and junior high school describe school levels, while student refers to the person.
× ...especially when I was an elementary and junior high students.
✓ ...especially when I was an elementary and junior high school student.
The singular subject I requires the singular noun student. The plural form students does not agree with the speaker referring to himself or herself as one person.
