× I realize reading books when I have leisure time, I usually read a novel or. Read a comic books.
✓ I enjoy reading books when I have leisure time; I usually read a novel or a comic book.
The student used 'realize' incorrectly; the intended meaning is the habit/enjoyment, so use 'enjoy' and the gerund 'reading' correctly. Also punctuation and sentence join needed. 'comic books' should be singular with article 'a' to parallel 'a novel' or use plural consistently. Improve by using 'I enjoy reading books' and ensuring noun number and articles match.
× I realize reading books when I have leisure time, I usually read a novel or. Read a comic books.
✓ I enjoy reading books when I have leisure time; I usually read a novel or a comic book.
The phrase 'comic books' conflicted with the singular article pattern 'a novel or'. Use 'a comic book' to match the singular 'a novel', or change both to plurals. Ensure articles and plural nouns agree.
× When I was a little child, I used to love riding bicycle with my friends in my neighborhood.
✓ When I was a child, I used to love riding bicycles with my friends in my neighborhood.
Use 'a child' rather than 'a little child' for natural English, though 'little' is not strictly wrong. 'Riding bicycle' is ungrammatical; use plural 'bicycles' or 'a bicycle' depending on meaning. 'Used to' correctly indicates past habit. Suggest saying 'riding bicycles' or 'riding a bicycle'.
× I think, uh, it's it, uh, it was a memorable time.
✓ I think it was a memorable time.
The original has disfluencies and redundant pronouns. Remove filler 'uh' and the repeated 'it's it' to produce a clear past-tense statement. Keep tense consistent with 'was'.
× Yes, it is drawing. I really love drawing since I was a child and I still have that hobby.
✓ Yes, it's drawing. I have loved drawing since I was a child, and I still have that hobby.
When referring to an action started in the past and continuing now, use present perfect 'have loved' not simple present 'really love ... since'. Also contractions are acceptable: 'it's drawing'. Ensure tense expresses continuity.
× Nowadays in my leisure time when I don't have anything to do, I usually draw.
✓ Nowadays, in my leisure time when I don't have anything to do, I usually draw.
Grammar is acceptable but needs a comma after 'Nowadays' for clarity. Tenses are consistent: present habitual 'usually draw' is correct. Suggest adding comma to improve flow.
× No, because the age gap between my family members and I are a huge, uh, quite huge, so we don't share the same hobbies with each other.
✓ No, because the age gap between my family members and me is quite large, so we don't share the same hobbies.
Use object pronoun 'me' after 'between'. The subject of 'is' is 'the age gap', which is singular, so use 'is' not 'are'. Phrase 'a huge, quite huge' is repetitive; use 'quite large' or 'very large'. Also 'share the same hobbies with each other' is redundant; 'share the same hobbies' suffices.
