× Well, to be honest, yes, I like to eat in chocolates but I mostly like to eat chocolate and the dark chocolate because it's a very beneficial for health and apart from this, it's also give me refreshment to my mind.
✓ Well, to be honest, yes, I like eating chocolate, but I mostly like dark chocolate because it is very beneficial for health and, apart from that, it also gives refreshment to my mind.
The student used incorrect forms: 'like to eat in chocolates' should be 'like eating chocolate' (verb + -ing or 'like to eat' without 'in'); 'the dark chocolate' unnecessary article; 'it's a very beneficial for health' should be 'it is very beneficial for health' (remove 'a' before uncountable adjective); 'it's also give' needs third-person singular verb 'gives'. Suggest using 'like eating' or 'like to eat' without extra preposition, remove unnecessary articles, and ensure verb agrees with subject.
× To be honest I like to eat chocolate on daily basis in small quantity and because it's give a refreshment to my mind and apart from this when I get depressed or not relaxed at that time I eat chocolate as a refreshing moment.
✓ To be honest, I like to eat chocolate daily in small quantities because it gives refreshment to my mind, and when I get depressed or feel tense I eat chocolate to feel refreshed.
Errors: 'on daily basis' is non-idiomatic; use 'daily'. 'in small quantity' should be plural 'in small quantities' or 'in small amounts'. 'it's give' needs third-person singular 'gives'. 'not relaxed' is better expressed as 'feel tense' or 'not relaxed'. 'as a refreshing moment' is awkward; use 'to feel refreshed'. Suggestions: use idiomatic adverb placement, plural for countable/uncountable phrasing, and correct verb agreement.
× When I was a child at that time my parents were very strict and they do not allow me to eat chocolates.
✓ When I was a child, my parents were very strict and they did not allow me to eat chocolates.
Mixed tenses: the main clause is past ('When I was a child', 'were very strict') so 'do not allow' should be past 'did not allow'. Use consistent past tense for past events.
× But nowadays as a social media influence everyone that dark chocolates have a medical benefits and that's why most of the person know the benefits of dark chocolate.
✓ But nowadays, because of social media influence, everyone knows that dark chocolate has medical benefits, and that's why most people know the benefits of dark chocolate.
Problems: 'as a social media influence' should be 'because of social media influence'; 'dark chocolates have a medical benefits' has mismatched plural and article — use singular 'dark chocolate has medical benefits' or plural 'dark chocolates have medical benefits' but drop 'a'. 'most of the person' is incorrect; use 'most people'. Also verb agreement: 'everyone knows'. Suggest using correct quantifiers and subject-verb agreement.
× Well, chocolate is not famous nowadays. It is very famous in the medieval times although but at that time travel it isn't. It is not a very vastly produced. It is only made for kings.
✓ Well, chocolate was not famous in medieval times; it was a luxury and was not widely produced, being made only for kings.
Multiple tense and structure problems: 'is not famous nowadays' contradicts 'very famous in the medieval times' — use past tense 'was' for medieval period. 'although but at that time travel it isn't' is ungrammatical and unclear; removed and clarified. 'It is not a very vastly produced' is incorrect; use 'was not widely produced'. Keep consistent past tense and use correct adverb 'widely'.
× When you countries have their own traditional recipes to eat chocolate.
✓ Many countries had their own traditional recipes for preparing chocolate.
Fragment and incorrect phrase 'When you countries' is ungrammatical. Turn into a full sentence: 'Many countries had their own traditional recipes for preparing chocolate.' Use correct preposition 'for' and past tense to match context.
× But nowadays the production has grown and everyone knows the benefits of chocolate and it is quite a famous as desserts.
✓ But nowadays production has grown, everyone knows the benefits of chocolate, and it is quite a popular dessert.
Errors: 'it is quite a famous as desserts' is ungrammatical. Use 'popular' not 'famous' with 'dessert'; 'desserts' plural disagrees with 'it'. Use singular 'a popular dessert' or plural 'popular as desserts'. Also streamline comma usage.
× Well, I recently said that I like to eat dark chocolates and that's why my favorite chocolate name is 100% cocoa chocolate.
✓ Well, I previously said that I like dark chocolate, and my favorite chocolate is 100% cocoa chocolate.
Problems: 'recently said' could be 'previously said' or 'I mentioned earlier'. 'my favorite chocolate name is' is unnatural; use 'my favorite chocolate is'. Also prefer 'dark chocolate' (uncountable) over 'dark chocolates' when speaking generally.
× And I like to eat that chocolate in small quantity because it's, uh, very dark chocolate and it reflects your mind.
✓ I like to eat that chocolate in small quantities because it is very dark and it refreshes the mind.
'in small quantity' should be 'in small quantities'. 'very dark chocolate' redundancy — 'very dark' as adjective suffices. 'it reflects your mind' is unclear; likely intended 'refreshes the mind'. Use appropriate verb and noun choice.
× Yes, I think giving chocolates is the better gift as compared to giving other sweets because other sweets contain sugar and chemicals.
✓ Yes, I think giving chocolates is a better gift compared to other sweets because some sweets contain more sugar and additives.
Use 'a better gift' (article) instead of 'the better gift' unless comparing two specific items. 'as compared to' is wordy; use 'compared to' or 'than'. 'chemicals' better phrased as 'additives'. Suggest concise comparative phrasing.
× But as we already know that Jack chocolate contain 100% cocoa and it gives reflex to mind.
✓ But as we already know, Jack Chocolate contains 100% cocoa and it refreshes the mind.
Subject-verb agreement: 'Jack chocolate contain' should be 'Jack Chocolate contains' (third-person singular). 'gives reflex to mind' is incorrect wording; use 'refreshes the mind' or 'gives a feeling of refreshment'. Capitalize brand name 'Jack Chocolate' as a proper noun. Use correct verb and noun collocation.
