× It's really depends on my mood, especially if I were to be feeling sad during the time, I would prefer to listen to some happy music to boost my mood.
✓ It really depends on my mood; especially if I am feeling sad at the time, I prefer to listen to some happy music to boost my mood.
The verb phrase 'It's really depends' mixes auxiliary 'is' with the base verb 'depends' causing incorrect present tense construction. Use simple present 'It really depends'. 'If I were to be feeling sad during the time' uses a subjunctive conditional and awkward phrasing; since this is a real condition about current mood, use 'if I am feeling sad at the time'. 'I would prefer' suggests hypothetical; use 'I prefer' to match the general statement. Suggestion: use simple present for habitual or general truths and keep conditional structure consistent.
× But if I feel like umm it's too much going on and overwhelming, I would prefer to listen to such song to enjoy the vibes and to also feel more emotional.
✓ But if I feel like it's too much going on and overwhelming, I prefer to listen to such songs to enjoy the vibes and to also feel more emotional.
Pronoun/number mismatch: 'such song' is singular but context implies any song of that type, so use plural 'such songs'. Also 'I would prefer' is conditional; 'I prefer' fits a habitual reaction. Keep pronouns consistent and pluralize nouns when speaking generally.
× I personally think that, umm, uplifting music made me feel more excited compared to, uh, emotional or melancholy songs because, uh, I feel like some kind of my mood depends on that song and how it's influenced me to think more Happily and goods.
✓ I personally think that uplifting music makes me feel more excited compared to emotional or melancholy songs because my mood depends on the song and how it influences me to think more happily and positively.
Mixed tenses: 'made me feel' is past while the sentence expresses a general truth; use simple present 'makes me feel'. 'some kind of my mood' is ungrammatical; use 'my mood'. 'how it's influenced me' mixes present contraction with past participle; use present 'how it influences me'. 'Happily and goods' uses incorrect capitalization and wrong word 'goods'; replace with adverb 'happily' and appropriate adverb 'positively'. Suggestions: maintain consistent present tense for general statements and use correct adverb forms.
× And let this one, I think is when I was in middle school, which is a required subject in our school, but I don't really particularly take part in that class because it just, uh, we just learned the surface of the, of the bases and it's really not that, uh, influence in my life.
✓ I think this was when I was in middle school; it was a required subject at our school, but I didn't really take part in the class because we just learned the basics and it didn't really influence my life.
Multiple errors: 'And let this one' is unclear conversational filler; replace with 'I think this was'. Tense consistency: describe past events with past tense 'was', 'didn't really take'. Preposition/article: use 'a required subject at our school'. 'the surface of the, of the bases' is incorrect—use 'we just learned the basics'. 'it's really not that influence' should be past 'it didn't really influence'. Suggestions: remove filler, use past tense for past events, and use correct nouns 'basics'.
× Yeah, of course as a student, I often listen to music when I'm studying or even when I'm exercising because it uplift my moods and also keep me going and it makes me more excited to do things.
✓ Yeah, of course as a student, I often listen to music when I'm studying or even when I'm exercising because it uplifts my mood, keeps me going, and makes me more excited to do things.
Subject-verb agreement within present tense: 'it uplift' should be 'it uplifts' to agree with singular subject 'it'. 'my moods' is acceptable but 'my mood' is more natural here. Parallel verbs need agreement: 'also keep me going' should be 'keeps me going'. Suggestions: ensure third-person singular verbs add -s and maintain parallel structure in lists.
× Furthermore, it keeps me, uh, concentrate on what I'm doing during that time.
✓ Furthermore, it keeps me concentrating on what I'm doing during that time.
Incorrect verb form: 'keeps me concentrate' mixes 'keep' + object + base verb; the correct pattern is 'keeps me' + present participle 'concentrating'. Alternatively, use 'helps me concentrate'. The definite article isn't the main issue here but the sentence required a gerund after 'keeps me'. Suggestion: use 'keeps me concentrating' or 'helps me concentrate'.
