× When I was young I visited parks very often because the swings over there as well as the nature, the flowers, everything fascinated me a lot.
✓ When I was young, I visited parks very often because the swings there, as well as the nature and the flowers, fascinated me a lot.
The phrase 'over there' is informal and unnecessary; use 'there' or omit. 'As well as' should be followed by parallel nouns separated by commas. Added comma after introductory clause. These changes improve clarity and natural preposition usage.
× As I am a student, I do not get sufficient time to visit parks very often.
✓ As I am a student, I do not have sufficient time to visit parks very often.
The verb phrase 'do not get sufficient time' is grammatical but unnatural; 'do not have sufficient time' is the correct collocation in present tense to express lack of time. This aligns verb choice with present-tense meaning.
× But yes, whenever I feel a bit of exhausted and my thoughts are messed up, I do visit parks because it provides me a lot of clarification seeing the nature around me.
✓ But yes, whenever I feel a bit exhausted and my thoughts are messed up, I visit parks because being in nature provides me with a lot of clarity.
Use the adjective 'exhausted' without 'a bit of'. 'It provides me a lot of clarification' is awkward; 'provides me with a lot of clarity' or 'clarifies my thoughts' is natural. 'Seeing the nature' is unidiomatic; use 'being in nature'. Removed unnecessary auxiliary 'do' for simple present.
× Surely I would like to explore more parks in my city because as I mentioned that I'm very fond of nature as well as the atmosphere around me, so I would relish visiting parks around me.
✓ Surely I would like to explore more parks in my city because, as I mentioned, I'm very fond of nature and the atmosphere around me, so I would relish visiting parks nearby.
Removed redundant 'that' after 'mentioned' and changed 'as well as' to 'and' for smoother coordination. 'Parks around me' is awkward; 'parks nearby' is more natural. Added commas to set off the parenthetical phrase.
× I would like to visit parks which are quite extraordinary and that stand apart from the regular parks.
✓ I would like to visit parks that are quite extraordinary and stand apart from regular parks.
Use 'that' (or 'which' in non-restrictive clauses) consistently; omit the extra 'that' before 'stand' and use the base verb 'stand' rather than a redundant construction. This makes the sentence more concise and grammatically correct.
