× No, after I started working as a full time worker, I don't have a lot of leisure time to go to the libraries as usual as when I was a student.

✓ No, after I started working as a full-time worker, I didn't have as much leisure time to go to the library as I usually did when I was a student.

The sentence mixes past and present tense incorrectly. Since the action of starting work is in the past, the following description of leisure time should also be in the past tense to maintain consistency. Also, 'as usual as' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'as much as usual' or 'as I usually did'. Additionally, 'full time' should be hyphenated as 'full-time' when used as an adjective.

× However, when I was in college, I really go to library very frequently.

✓ However, when I was in college, I really went to the library very frequently.

The sentence refers to a past time ('when I was in college'), so the verb should be in the past tense ('went') instead of present tense ('go'). Also, 'library' should have the definite article 'the' before it.

× I don't have a lot of leisure time to go to the libraries as usual as when I was a student.

✓ I don't have a lot of leisure time to go to the library as much as when I was a student.

The word 'libraries' is plural, but the context suggests going to the library in general, so the singular form 'library' with the definite article 'the' is more appropriate. Also, the phrase 'as usual as' is incorrect; it should be 'as much as' to compare frequency or amount.

× When I am in the library, I usually do 2 kind of things.

✓ When I am in the library, I usually do 2 kinds of things.

The phrase '2 kind of things' is incorrect because 'kind' should be plural ('kinds') when referring to more than one type. Also, '2' should ideally be written as 'two' in formal writing.

× One is to uh, study on my computer.

✓ One is to, uh, study on my computer.

The phrase 'study on my computer' is acceptable, but more commonly, we say 'study using my computer' or simply 'study on my computer' is fine. No correction needed here for preposition, but the sentence could be improved for clarity.

× I could search for some online materials and research about my professional field.

✓ I could search for some online materials and research my professional field.

The verb 'research' is transitive and does not require the preposition 'about'. Saying 'research my professional field' is correct.

× Uh, another thing that I could do is just to read novels for some knowledge that is in different fields.

✓ Uh, another thing that I could do is just to read novels to gain some knowledge in different fields.

The phrase 'read novels for some knowledge that is in different fields' is awkward. Using 'to gain some knowledge in different fields' is clearer and grammatically correct.

× Chinese kids go to library a lot.

✓ Chinese kids go to the library a lot.

The noun 'library' is singular and countable, so it requires the definite article 'the' when referring to a specific place generally known to both speaker and listener.

× so it is very common for Chinese students to gather together and go to library to study on their homework together.

✓ so it is very common for Chinese students to gather together and go to the library to study their homework together.

The phrase 'go to library' needs the definite article 'the' before 'library'. Also, 'study on their homework' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'study their homework' without 'on'.
