Do you often go to the library?
Puntuación: 75.0Sugerencia: Your answer is generally clear and relevant, but it could be more concise and natural. Avoid contractions like 'cause in formal speaking, and try to use linking words to connect ideas smoothly.

Instead, mention different activities you do in the library.

× Yes, I like going to the library 'cause it helps me take some time off from my busy schedules and that gives me opportunity to relax my mind and get to read new books.
✓ Yes, I like going to the library 'cause it helps me take some time off from my busy schedule and that gives me the opportunity to relax my mind and get to read new books.
The word 'schedules' should be singular 'schedule' because 'busy schedule' is a common expression referring to one's overall timetable. Also, 'opportunity' needs the definite article 'the' before it to specify the particular opportunity being referred to.
× I go to the library most times to relax my brain and free myself from whatever is going on with me at the moment, so it helps me relax and sometimes I even listen to music while I relax myself.
✓ I go to the library most of the time to relax my brain and free myself from whatever is going on with me at the moment, so it helps me relax and sometimes I even listen to music while I relax myself.
The phrase 'most times' is incorrect; the correct expression is 'most of the time' to indicate frequency. This is a present tense usage issue related to adverbial expressions.
× Yes, I did go to the library when I was a kid. I go with my siblings most of the time. We visit the library mostly on weekends.
✓ Yes, I did go to the library when I was a kid. I went with my siblings most of the time. We visited the library mostly on weekends.
Since the question is about past habits, the verbs 'go' and 'visit' should be in the past tense 'went' and 'visited' to maintain tense consistency.
× Yes, they often go to the library because the school also advise students to visit the library in order to help them increase and understand more of their studies, their vocabularies and help them study fine.
✓ Yes, they often go to the library because the school also advises students to visit the library in order to help them improve and understand more of their studies, their vocabulary, and help them study well.
The verb 'advise' should be 'advises' to agree with the singular subject 'school' (third person singular issue). Also, 'increase' is incorrect here; 'improve' is the correct verb to use with 'studies'. 'Vocabularies' should be singular 'vocabulary' as it is an uncountable noun. 'Study fine' is incorrect; the correct adverb is 'well'.
