Did you have any hobbies when you were a child?
Puntuación: 68.0Sugerencia: Be more concise and correct word choices/grammar. Use linking words to explain the change from past to present (e.g., "but" or "however"). Correct phrases like "technology advance" to "advances in technology" and avoid redundant words ("and also").
Ejemplo: When I was a child I enjoyed reading a lot, but as I grew older and advances in technology made video streaming more appealing, I began watching more TV and Netflix, so I rarely read now.
Do you have a hobby that you've had since childhood?
Puntuación: 70.0Sugerencia: Combine and streamline sentences to avoid repetition. Use correct tense and time expressions ("have enjoyed/has enjoyed" and "since I was a child") and plural forms (classmates). Add one specific detail (e.g., how often or a memory) to enrich the answer.
Ejemplo: Yes — I have enjoyed playing badminton since I was a child. I used to play with my classmates in primary school, and now I still meet a few friends twice a week to play, so it has remained my long-term hobby.

Puntuación: 76.0Sugerencia: Make the answer more natural by varying language and fixing small grammar issues ("twice or three times" -> "two or three times", "during weekend" -> "on weekends"). Provide one specific example of a shared routine or benefit to add depth.

× Yes, I do like playing sports, for example badminton and table tennis.
✓ Yes, I like playing sports, for example badminton and table tennis.
Using 'do' for emphasis is possible but unnecessary here; 'I do like' is not incorrect but sounds marked. Not in list? However to follow list 10 applies to present participle 'playing' which is correct so no change needed. Suggest removing 'do' for naturalness.
× I enjoy playing sports with my families and friends during weekends.
✓ I enjoy playing sports with my family and friends on weekends.
Use 'family' as a collective noun, not 'families', and use the preposition 'on' with 'weekends'. 'Family' refers to your household; 'families' implies multiple households. Also 'on weekends' is the standard collocation.
× It not only help me stays healthy but it is also a good way to bonding with families and friends by doing sports together.
✓ It not only helps me stay healthy but is also a good way to bond with family and friends by doing sports together.
Subject-verb agreement: 'It' requires 'helps' (third person singular). Use base form 'stay' after 'helps' and infinitive 'to bond' rather than 'to bonding'. Use 'family' (collective) and 'friends' is fine. Also omit the second 'it' for concision.
× Actually I enjoyed reading when I was a child.
✓ Actually, I enjoyed reading when I was a child.
Original sentence is grammatical; only punctuation: add comma after 'Actually' for natural speech transcription. Tense is appropriate (past). (Included for completeness.)
× As I grew up due to the technology advance meant I put more focus on watching TV and videos online and also Netflix, so I rarely do it now.
✓ As I grew up and technology advanced, I focused more on watching TV and online videos, including Netflix, so I rarely read now.
The original sentence is wordy and ungrammatical: 'due to the technology advance meant' is incorrect. Use 'as I grew up and technology advanced' for cause, use past tense 'focused' to match time frame, and clarify 'I rarely read now' instead of 'rarely do it now' to specify the activity.
× Yes I do. I enjoy playing badminton since I was a child.
✓ Yes, I do. I have enjoyed playing badminton since I was a child.
For an action that began in the past and continues to the present, use the present perfect 'have enjoyed' plus 'since' to indicate duration. Also add comma after 'Yes' for clarity.
× I like playing badminton with my friends and classmate in my primary school and then as I grow up I still have some friends playing badminton with me and now I'm as an adult I still play badminton.
✓ I liked playing badminton with my friends and classmates in primary school, and as I grew up I still had some friends who played badminton with me, and now as an adult I still play badminton.
Maintain consistent past tense when referring to school period ('liked', 'classmates'). Use plural 'classmates'. Use relative clause 'friends who played' for clarity. Keep tense consistency: past for past events, present for current status ('now as an adult I still play badminton').
× All of my family members and I enjoy playing badminton.
✓ All my family members and I enjoy playing badminton.
Both 'All of my family members and I' and 'All my family members and I' are acceptable; 'All my family members and I' is more natural and concise. No major grammatical error; changed for naturalness.
× We usually play badminton twice or three times a week after work or during weekend.
✓ We usually play badminton two or three times a week after work or during the weekend.
Use 'two or three times' rather than 'twice or three times'. Also use 'during the weekend' or 'on weekends'; include article 'the' for 'the weekend' in this context.
× We find it very interesting to play together because it helps us stay healthy and bond in the meantime.
✓ We find it very enjoyable to play together because it helps us stay healthy and bond with each other.
'Interesting' is odd to describe playing together; 'enjoyable' fits better. 'Bond in the meantime' is awkward; use 'bond with each other' to express mutual bonding. Grammar corrected for natural phrasing.
