Grammar

Singular and plural issue

× Yes when I was a child I took part in many kind of activities.

✓ Yes, when I was a child I took part in many kinds of activities.

'Many' requires a plural noun. 'Kind' should be plural 'kinds' to match 'many'. Add a comma after 'Yes' for clarity.

Verb in the present participle form

× My parents always encouraged me to try new things.

✓ My parents always encouraged me to try new things.

This sentence is already grammatically correct; the verb 'encouraged' correctly matches the past tense context, so no change is needed.

Sentence structure errors

× For example, I participated in piano lessons after school and also I participated in the school swimming club as well.

✓ For example, I took piano lessons after school and also joined the school swimming club.

Repetition of 'participated' and redundant 'also'/'as well' make the sentence awkward. Use varied verbs ('took' and 'joined') and remove redundancy for clearer, more natural structure.

Incorrect use of quantifiers

× Yes, I think people should try a new different kind of things because it will help them gain variable experience and learn important lessons, for example, experimenting with new hobbies or jobs can reveal a hidden tenance and broaden your skills.

✓ Yes, I think people should try different kinds of things because it will help them gain varied experience and learn important lessons; for example, experimenting with new hobbies or jobs can reveal a hidden talent and broaden your skills.

Several issues: 'a new different kind of things' mixes singular and plural and is incorrect—use 'different kinds of things'. 'Variable experience' is unnatural; 'varied experience' is correct. 'Tenance' is a misspelling; correct word is 'talent'. Also adjust punctuation (use semicolon) and maintain consistent pronouns ('them' and 'your' should match; changed to 'your' in second clause to 'their' would be more consistent, but keeping 'your skills' is acceptable in spoken advice).
