Is there a difference between where you meet friends now and where you used to meet them in the past?
Score: 45.0Suggestion: Be direct: state the main difference in one clear topic sentence, then give 1–2 specific supporting details using linking words. Reduce fillers (uh, umm) and correct grammar (use past/present tense consistently).
Example: Yes. In the past I used to meet friends in lively places because their energy made me feel happy. Now I usually meet friends in quieter places like the library because I want to study and focus on my work.
Why are some places suitable for meeting while others are not?
Score: 50.0Suggestion: Start with a clear topic sentence explaining the main reason, then use linking words (for example, however) and give specific examples of suitable/unsuitable places. Use correct vocabulary (e.g., "calm mood," "busy atmosphere").
Example: Some places are suitable because they have a calm atmosphere that helps people talk and concentrate. For example, a quiet café or a library is good for serious discussion, while a noisy club is not suitable because it is hard to hear each other.

Do you have a friend you have known for a long time?
Score: 50.0Suggestion: Give a clear statement and then provide a concise supporting detail about how you met and the length of the friendship. Fix tense and pronoun errors and remove fillers.
Example: Yes, I have a friend I have known since high school; she has been my best friend for many years. We met in class and have stayed close through high school and university.
× Uh, yes there is it.
✓ Uh, yes there is.
The phrase 'there is it' is ungrammatical; 'there is' is the correct existential phrase. Remove the extra pronoun 'it'. Use 'yes, there is' to affirm difference.
× in the past I like like a friend who is activity energy because when I read them I I feel positive and happy, but now I tend to learn.
✓ In the past I liked friends who were energetic because when I was with them I felt positive and happy, but now I tend to study.
Multiple tense and word-choice issues: 'in the past' requires past tense 'liked' and 'were'; 'activity energy' is incorrect—use adjective 'energetic'; 'read them' is wrong verb for spending time—use 'was with them'; duplicate 'I'; 'feel' should be past 'felt'; 'tend to learn' is unnatural for current habit—use 'tend to study'.
× it is because some place has a umm come mood and it is good for focusing on topic but others have uh activity mood so it is not suitable.
✓ It is because some places have a calm mood and are good for focusing on a topic, but others have an active mood so they are not suitable.
Pluralization and agreement: 'place' should be plural 'places' to match 'some'; verb should be 'have' not 'has'. 'Come' is a misspelling of 'calm'; 'activity mood' should be 'active mood'. Use 'are' to agree with plural subjects, and include article 'a' before 'topic'.
× I prefer one friend because with one friend is more good to focusing on ones and I feel comfortable.
✓ I prefer one friend because it is better to focus on one person and I feel comfortable.
Awkward comparative 'more good' should be 'better'. Sentence structure: include subject 'it' and infinitive 'to focus' not gerund 'to focusing'; 'ones' should be 'one person'.
× When I meeting only one friends it is.
✓ When I meet only one friend, it is.
Use correct verb form 'meet' for present simple with subject 'I'. 'Friends' should be singular 'friend' after 'one'. The trailing 'it is' is unclear but kept minimal; better to finish with 'I feel comfortable' if intended.
× No, I don't then because I'm I'm not feeling good about inviting my friend in my home because umm for me home is very important place for umm, relaxed.
✓ No, I don't, because I don't feel comfortable inviting friends into my home; for me, home is a very important place for relaxing.
'Don't then' is incorrect modal/auxiliary usage—use 'don't' with clarification. 'I'm not feeling good about' should be 'I don't feel comfortable'. Preposition 'in my home' should be 'into my home' or 'inviting friends to my home'. 'Relaxed' is an adjective; use noun/verb form 'relaxing'.
× Our friends are very important for me because I am a lonely person so I want to meet friends and I want to have friends for my life and from friends I get some positive energy so I like.
✓ Friends are very important to me because I am a lonely person, so I want to meet people and have friends in my life; I get positive energy from friends, so I like having them.
Pronoun 'Our friends' is incorrect in this context—use 'Friends'. Preposition 'important for me' should be 'important to me'. 'Meet friends' repetition awkward—use 'meet people' or 'make friends'. 'For my life' should be 'in my life'. Clarify final clause: 'so I like' needs object—'I like having them'.
× Umm yes of course I always go out with friends because together someone is the best way to behave or something.
✓ Yes, of course I often go out with friends because being together is the best way to relax and have fun.
Original sentence has unclear structure: 'together someone is the best way to behave' is ungrammatical. Replace with clear subject 'being together' and a sensible predicate like 'is the best way to relax and have fun'. Also 'always' may be exaggerated; 'often' fits better.
× Usually it is a library because me and my friends are college students so we have to study our subject and major.
✓ Usually it is the library because my friends and I are college students, so we have to study our subjects and majors.
Use definite article 'the library' for a specific place. Pronoun order and case: 'me and my friends' should be 'my friends and I'. 'Subject and major' should be plural 'subjects and majors' if referring to multiple people.
× So we usually met library and do each homework and task for good grade.
✓ So we usually meet at the library and do our homework and tasks to get good grades.
Verb tense: 'met' is past; present habit needs 'meet'. Add preposition 'at the library'. Use possessive 'our homework'. 'For good grade' should be 'to get good grades'.
× I usually do with my friend walking a park and and also study with them and how we like to sing a song together like ballads and K pop.
✓ I usually go walking in a park with my friend, and I also study with them; we like to sing songs together, like ballads and K-pop.
Preposition and verb errors: 'do with my friend walking a park' should be 'go walking in a park with my friend'. 'Sing a song' pluralized to 'sing songs'. 'K pop' should be 'K-pop'. Improved punctuation and conjunction usage.
× Yes I have I have a friend umm, who is who was meeting at high school and she is my best friend for a long time until I became university student.
✓ Yes, I have a friend whom I met in high school; she has been my best friend for a long time until I became a university student.
Use 'met' for past action not 'meeting'. Use correct relative pronoun 'whom' or 'who' with proper verb: 'whom I met in high school'. 'She has been my best friend' fits the duration; 'became university student' needs article 'a' and 'a university student'.
× Uh, we are your best friend each other and I want to be.
✓ We have been best friends for each other for a long time, and I want to stay that way.
The sentence is fragmented and uses incorrect pronoun 'your'. Clarify intended meaning: 'we have been best friends' and express desire 'I want to stay that way'. Avoid 'each other' awkward placement; 'best friends with each other' could be used instead.
